Resolution or Objectives?
Definition:
Resolution-A decision to do something or to behave in a certain manner
Objective–The goal intended to be attained (and which is believed to be attainable)
I called my list as Objectives [not resolutions] – meaning – that these are just my intentions for 2013. I am not really deciding by heart that I will really do it, so no pressure on my part. I’ve done this last year also and the outcome was very positive. Another concept about “objectives” is “segmentation” from TRIZ40 . By diving the whole into smaller parts, the task become easily manageable and therefore easier to attain. During wartime, in order for a nation to win the war, a nation must win smaller battles. To win smaller battles, soldiers need to attain objectives. Those objectives are smaller/simpler tasks generated from the highest level of the chain of command ie. capture the hill, secure the bridge, establish presence or build a support depot or establish a landing zone etc.
If we apply the same principle to our lives using smaller objectives-anything is possible.
Why don’t you try it.
