Discover Your Brain Strengths to Navigate Life
A startling statistic is that only one in twenty, who make New Year resolutions, succeed in achieving their desired outcomes. If you are amongst the 95% trying to close the gap between intentions and action, practical neuroscience is your bridge to success.
Intentions are ongoing throughout the year. Perhaps people wait for the New Year to make changes, as it is a time-honored tradition and New Year’s Day is a symbol for a “fresh slate” or “new beginning.” Why not look at each day as the best day to be the best you can be, and to improve your quality of life?
It seems that most people tend to launch into making resolutions quickly and emotionally, without going through a brain-based approach that exponentially improves the success rate. It’s all too easy to make grand and noble resolutions; it’s another matter to experience success at keeping them. This is where guilt and embarrassment set in, particularly if you make your resolutions visible. Then, the process of making future resolutions becomes even more difficult and burdensome because you’ve programmed yourself with negative memory imprints.
It may be helpful to think about intentions as the “starting point” for resolutions. Visualize your intentions as filling Hoover Dam with positively charged water; as the potential energy builds, the pressure increases to the point where you need to release it (action). Saying aloud and visually documenting your intentions kicks your brain in gear to think, see, feel and hear (through your internal voice) the benefits and outcomes of your intentions. Your brain will consciously and unconsciously work on establishing goals and action plans if the outcomes are satisfying and sustainable. Natural repetition of the process strengthens motivation through neuroplasticity as you fill your “Hoover Dam Brain;” this renders willpower unnecessary. If natural repetition ceases, you can assume that the “value equation” of your intentions were sufficiently low; this is a gift from your brain and you can start over with a different set of intentions in a guilt-free manner.
The key to success is to stay with the “intention process” for hours, days and even weeks; you will go on autopilot if your brain is sufficiently motivated. It’s essential to document your thoughts and ideas; these building blocks are subject to review, analysis, change, removal and new additions. Visual documentation fuels repetition. Contrasts are made, below, between intentions that rarely succeed and those that catalyze action and success.

In conclusion, it’s never too late to make and manifest meaningful resolutions; there is no better time to start than now. Begin the process of thinking about your intentions; say them aloud and write them down. Keep adding thoughts, feelings, ideas, outcomes, benefits, beneficiaries, goals and action plans to your documentation. This “living process” is the real-world mechanism for change using intention-based resolutions. This practical neuroscience methodology is bound to be more successful and fun than the methods used by the 95% of people, who fail in making and keeping their resolutions.
