New year's resolutions
Author: Serge Prengel

Do you know the percentage of people who break new year's resolutions? It doesn't matter what their new year resolution was -- to diet, to lose weight, to exercise, to sleep better, to work better... whatever... It happens to so many people, year after year.

Every new year, we make resolutions for a better life. It feels like getting a new start on life. We're full of hope and anticipation.
But, year after year, the same thing happens. Within a few weeks, it's all gone -- the enthusiasm, the hope... Once again, the new year resolution has fizzled out. And we feel deflated, sad and guilty: we broke our promises to ourselves.

So why do we keep repeating the same mistake? Why do we keep making new year resolutions we will break within a few weeks? Why do we keep creating for ourselves the experience of defeat and powerlessness?

I have a suggestion. Try something different this year. Resolve to better understand what it is that makes you break your good resolutions.

We all experience, to some degree, a conflict between different parts of ourselves. There's a part that directs us to do what we should do... and a part that rebels against any directives.

As we become more conscious of the rebellious part of ourselves, we begin to understand it better, and to deal with it better.
We then become better able to make contracts with ourselves that we can live with, and fulfill.

Chances are, like so many people, you've been trying to force yourself to stick to new year's resolutions through sheer strength and bullying. And, like so many people, you break your new year resolutions year after year.

Amazingly enough, the solution is not in bullying yourself more (or in burying your head in the sand, giving up new year resolutions altogether). The hope for new beginnings lies in understanding yourself better... in making peace with the rebellious part of yourself...
This is what it means to be wholeheartedly engaged in changing your life for the better.
