Every new year begins with the same ritual. We resolve that this year will be different. This year we’re going to read 20 books, lose 20 pounds, run a marathon, and everything else we didn’t get to do last year. The resolutions that we made and didn’t accomplish, well that is the past, and this is a new year. One of the reasons we struggle each year to meet our resolution goals is that we lack vision and focus. We don’t know why we set these goals, and most importantly we don’t see the big picture. Because of that, we give up before we ever really get off the starting line. However, if we could somehow link our goals to our destination, it would be much easier to stick with the plan.
