Let\u2019s talk about New Years Resolutions.
\n
\nWe\u2019ve all tried, and few have succeeded, to make sweeping changes in our behavior.
\n
\nAnd the new year is a very tempting time for this effort!
\n
\nBut the fact is that even though we feel as though we always \u2018fail\u2019 at these attempts, I don\u2019t think that\u2019s true.
\n
\n\u2018Failure\u2019 to lose 20 pounds, for example, looks like going on and sticking to a diet for 20 weeks and finding that we haven\u2019t lost the weight.
\n
\nBut that\u2019s not what our resolutions usually look like.
\n
\nWhat happens is more along the lines of sticking to a diet for a few days or weeks and then having that slice of pizza and declaring the diet to be over.
\n
\nTo me, this is self-sabotage that comes from the fear of failure.
\n
\nSelf Compassion - the act of supporting ourselves through difficult times, including times of failure - can eliminate this fear of failure and empower our success.
\n
\nThis applies as much to our daily achievements as it does to those big New Years' resolutions.
