Success Mantras Can Help You Keep Your New Year's Resolutions

No matter what your goals are for this new year, the most important thing is that you have a clear and realistic view of what you want to achieve. Nothing will happen overnight. For that reason, you must have the motivation, and the ability to self-motivate for those times when achieving your goals seems too much. 

That’s why I thought we’d introduce the idea of ‘mantras’ this month. A mantra does not have to be part of religious or spiritual practice (though many religions do use them during prayer).

However, a mantra, in its most basic form, is simply a word or phrase that is repeated to aid with concentration, re-centering, or focus. 

Buddhists and Hindus use them in prayer, many top athletes use them in training, successful entrepreneurs have used them to inspire them to start their day, and there is no reason why you can’t, too! 

To-do: To help with your self-motivation, I want you to: 

• Choose a mantra (it can be from anywhere!) 
• Write it down 
• Place it somewhere visible 
• When things are not happening according to your plan, when times are difficult, when you are facing insurmountable hurdles and problems, say your success mantra to get you out of the loop.

Remember, you become what you think about the most, and so when you repeat your mantra to yourself, you are reminding yourself to maintain your positivity and not to give up. For best results, repeat this mantra several times a day, no need to wait until times are hard to use this technique. 

Here are some ideas for mantras you can use: https://www.success.com/article/17-motivational-successmantras ​

​Two of my favorites are: ‘If you want to achieve greatness, stop asking for permission!’ and “I’m open and receptive to all the good the universe has to offer me.”
