“Your gain is my pain. Call me.” ~ Janice Taylor, Weight Loss Success Coach, Hypnotherapist, Author, Artist, Positarian<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We are one month into the New Year. One month into our resolutions. One month into our promises.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s right. We promised ourselves a myriad of things, which may include: to lose weight, to exercise more, to de-clutter, to stop smoking\u2026to walk the straight and narrow.<\/p>\n

We promised to get our act together in some way, shape or form.<\/p>\n

And which each promise, you experienced a burst of hope followed by a wave of excitement and elation; didn\u2019t you?<\/p>\n

Your intentions are good but sooner or later \u2013 as soon as you hit an unavoidable bump in the road – self-doubt sets in and your inner-critic pipes up.<\/p>\n

\u201cI knew you couldn\u2019t do it.\u201d
\n\u201cWhat\u2019s wrong with you?\u201d
\n\u201cYou\u2019re no good, you\u2019re no good, you\u2019re no good.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

(Am I right, or am I right?!)<\/p>\n

Sooner or later your river of hope and enthusiasm runs dry, and you return to your \u201cdefault setting.\u201d The old habits return, take hold and there you are and here you go again.<\/p>\n

Please take a moment to think about what it means to make a promise to yourself.\u00a0\u00a0 When you make a promise to another and deliver, they have faith in you. When you don\u2019t fulfill your promise, your integrity plummets and you feel rotten to the core.<\/p>\n

When you promise yourself something and you deliver, you are happy with yourself, you have faith in yourself, you trust yourself, you love yourself; and when you do not deliver, your feelings about yourself plummet.<\/p>\n

Would you say that you feel a real sense of sadness, a sense of loss and betrayal?<\/p>\n

Before we repeat the past, which is exactly what we don\u2019t want to do (we want this time to be different, don\u2019t we?! ), let\u2019s do a little exploration.<\/p>\n

If you are going to promise something to yourself, make sure that it comes from the heart, and that you have enough energy and enthusiasm to deliver this promise.<\/p>\n

If you do not want to make a promise to yourself, then do not! It\u2019s your choice.<\/p>\n
