INTRODUCTION

New Year Resolutions

New Year resolutions suck!

At least, they have always done in my life until last year. I start off making a long list of Dos and

Don’ts on the first day of every year and promptly forget all about it by the twentieth. By the

time February begins, I am back to my earlier self, gorging on cream rolls, skipping Pilates and

whiling away more time scrolling down the Facebook timeline than writing.

2017 was no different except that I woke up from this reverie sometime around the middle of the

year. I realized, with a shock, that I was still hungover from the euphoria of publishing my first

novel and had hardly written a single word for the last seven months. This was despite being

commissioned for three separate books. Netflix was tempting, Netflix coupled with potato wafers

was bliss and I couldn’t get myself to follow through on my obligations. Despite being blessed

with opportunities, was I going to be such a lazy failure?

I sat down, had a good cry and then picked up a fresh sheaf of papers. I made a list of resolutions

once again. It was then that it struck me that I have been doing this wrong all these years.

New Year Resolutions cannot be a list of things to do and not do. It cannot be a list of dreams

and goals. It cannot be a timetable to how your day should go. All these steps help in their own

ways, but they cannot make a dream/resolution come true. It needs something more.

With this insight, I used all that I have learned from reading hundreds of self-help and

inspirational books for the last couple of decades and tweaked my resolutions a little bit this

©ARCHANASARAT2017

time. The following six months must have been one of the most productive phases in my writing

life.

In those six months, I completed the first draft of two crime thrillers, wrote two children’s books,

completed and registered a screenplay for a two-hour-feature film, published a collection of my

flash fiction stories and wrote four short stories.

One of the children’s books involved intense research on a scientific subject and I read nearly a

dozen fat books on that subject before penning it. Apart from this, I read about thirty-five novels

and more than ten non-fiction books during this period.

I made sure that I got at least an hour of physical activity every day. I spent at least two hours

every evening with the children, didn’t work on Sundays and took a two-week-vacation in

October.

Frankly, compared with many other writers, this is not a lot, but I am proud of myself. For the

first time, I understood how I could transfer dreams into action. I’d love to share with you what

worked for me. If you are interested in knowing how I tweak my resolutions to make them easier

to accomplish, keep reading…

How to Read this Book?

This book comes with an accompanying workbook. It would be best if you could take a printout

of the workbook. There is something about working with pen and paper, the old-fashioned way,

when it comes to creating your life plans. It helps you think deeply and creatively. So, I suggest

you take a printout of the workbook and write your way, by hand, through the New Year

Resolution setting process.

1) Keep aside 30-60 minutes for going through this book and working on the workbook.

2) Play some calm, soothing music.

3) Switch off the internet and mute your phone.

4) Make yourself a cup of your favourite drink, sit comfortably, open the book on your

computer and keep the printout of the workbook, along with a couple of your favourite

pens and some extra sheets of paper, handy.

Let’s begin…

THE JOURNEY

“If we did all the things we are capable of, we would literally astound ourselves.”

Thomas A. Edison

Life is a journey where the destination can be anything you choose.

If you choose to own a sea-facing bungalow at Mumbai, it can be yours. If you choose to be a

best-selling author, you can be one. If you choose to earn an annual income of one crore rupees

every year, you can.

There are only three steps to follow to reach the destination of your dreams:

1) Be equipped

“It’s supposed to be hard. If it were easy, everyone would do it.”

—Jimmy Dugan, A League of Their Own

This is the journey of your life. To transverse it and reach your destination safely, you

need to be equipped with qualities that will help you and spur you on your path. The next

chapter gives you insights about some basic principles that you need to equip yourself

with.

2) Choose the right road

Most of you must have heard of the story of the man who lost his keys at home but was

searching for it beneath the lamp post because it was brighter there. Do not allow the gap

between your goals and actions become something like that. If you want to become a

best-selling author, you need to write that book. There is no way around that.

“Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?' Alice asked.

'That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,' said the Cat.

'I don't much care where -' said Alice.

'Then it doesn't matter which way you go,' said the Cat.

― Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland

To achieve our dreams, we all make resolutions. We want to look slim and beautiful. So,

we need to lose weight. However, there is the New Year party coming up and our

resolutions blast away with the crackers. Why does this happen? How can we avert it?

The third chapter talks about this in depth.

3) Stay on path

Choosing a path is only equivalent to getting started. The challenge comes in staying on

the path and continuing to walk towards our destination. There will be days when you

will be soaring along on a race car and then, there will be days when you have no mood

to even walk. Remember, it is important that you do not stop. IF YOU CANNOT

WALK, CRAWL, BUT YOU NEED TO KEEP MOVING. Learn how to create New

Year Resolutions and stay on the path in the fourth chapter.

“Arise, awake, and stop not till the goal is reached.”

- Swami Vivekananda

BE EQUIPPED

“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.”

- Chinese philosopher, Laozi

Before you decide your destination and the path that will take you to it, be equipped with these

four life principles. Whatever may be your path, these principles are sure to help you on your

journey.

I. Be Present

Every year, when I made my resolutions, I think there was a small part of me that never expected

me to follow up on those resolutions. So, though I showed enthusiasm in making them, my

PAST performance was already catching up with me.

Along with that, I was struck with a nagging feeling that all my best-laid plans were going to go

astray. ‘Haven’t they always? Why should it be any different this year? Aren’t I going on a

vacation in May? That will bust my schedule! How can I expect to write every day? What if the

kids fell sick?’ These misplaced anxieties about the FUTURE ruined whatever little chances

were left.

Today, tell yourself firmly, ‘ONLY THE PRESENT MATTERS’.

The past is over, and the future is unpredictable. The only thing we have in our hands is the

‘present’. To let go off the past and march into a dream future, we must BE PRESENT.

©ARCHANASARAT2017
10 Achieve Your Resolutions

When you are in the present, FOCUS ALL YOUR ENERGIES AND ATTENTION TO THE

TASK AT HAND. Distracted presence and multi-tasking have become a part of our lives today.

We are incapable of giving all our attention to one thing.

How many of you read the book till here without getting up from your seat? Or answering the

phone? Or doing anything else that took your eyes off the book? If you are lifting your hand, hats

off to you! Out of the first twenty people who read this book, eighteen of them answered in the

negative. It is a sad that we are unable to read 1000 words without losing concentration.

“For him who has no concentration, there is no peace.”

- Bhagavad Gita

The first principle that you need to equip yourself with is to concentrate on the present with all

the focus that you can muster. Multi-tasking is not a talent.

II. Take Responsibility

You are responsible for whatever happens in your life.

This was my major problem. I loved to blame others. For example, my usual excuses for not

writing were

➢ Guests came over or

➢ Kids were screaming or

➢ Maid was on a holiday or

➢ Someone was sick or

➢ I was sick!

©ARCHANASARAT2017
11 Achieve Your Resolutions

I’m sure you get the idea. When you are in an artistic field or self-employed, it is easy to put off

what you want to do. Things that are urgent take precedence over things that are important.

“Ninety-nine percent of the failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses.”

- George Washington Carver

When I decided I needed to make changes in my life, the first thing that I let go off was blaming

others. This is the toughest principle to live by. I still slip at times because it is always easy to

blame others or blame the circumstances for your mistakes. The toughest thing is to own up and

take responsibility for your life.

One thing that helped me on this path was watching my language. Earlier, I used to mention, “I

didn’t write today because the schools were off, and the kids were creating a ruckus. I had not a

moment of peace.” Now, I watch what I speak. When my husband asks me how was your

writing today, I tell him, “I didn’t write today because I got distracted by the kids. I should have

locked the study and worked, but I didn’t.” This is the difference between blaming others and

taking 100% responsibility for your life.

Whenever something goes wrong in your life or when your best-laid plans go astray, WATCH

YOUR ACTIONS AND YOUR LANGUAGE. Are you blaming others or are you taking

responsibility for the same? You may not be able to change immediately, but when you

consciously resolve to change your behaviour, it will become a habit soon.

When you own up to the issues in your life, whether it is an abusive relationship or an addiction

or disobedient children or anything else, magic happens. You are sending a message to the

universe that you are in control of the situation. So, the universe decides to send you suggestions

©ARCHANASARAT2017
12 Achieve Your Resolutions

to solve the issue. If you play the victim, this will not happen. Once the solution for the issue

strikes you, act on it. Follow that intuition.

So, the second principle on your journey is to take 100% responsibility for your life.

III. Be Positive

"Believe you can and you're halfway there."

—T. Roosevelt

All of us dream for good things, big things. How many of us believe that those good things can

happen to us? Later, in this book, you will receive suggestions that can change the beliefs you

have on yourself and on the world.

For now,

1) Believe that only good can happen to you.

2) Believe that YOU HAVE THE POWER can make it happen.

3) Do not allow negative words or thoughts near you. That means, neither should you speak

words that can harm others nor listen to such words spoken to you. For instance, you

should never tell yourself that you cannot do something. At the same time, if someone

tells you cannot do something or that it is hard/impossible, walk away from that person.

Tune that person out.

4) Do not be tied down by negative emotions. This includes and is not limited to anger,

jealousy, hatred, bias, dishonesty, suspicion, etc.

©ARCHANASARAT2017
13 Achieve Your Resolutions

5) Believe in abundance. There is no scarcity. There is always place in the bookstore for one

more book and that book can be yours. The world could use another millionaire and that

person could be you. You are not stealing anyone’s opportunity by becoming a

doctor/engineer/author/artist. The money you earn is not someone’s loss, unless and until

you are stealing it.

So, be positive and believe in abundance. That is your third principle.

"Those who don't believe in magic will never find it."

—Roald Dahl

IV. Ask

"Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you.

For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.”

-World English Bible

The entire world, the journey, everything is built on the principle of ‘ask’, but most of us cannot

bring ourselves to ask others for help. We are frightened to ask for information, direction, help,

support, money, time or guidance.

Why are we aghast at asking?

➢ Fear of rejection

➢ Fear of looking like a fool

➢ Fear of hearing the word ‘No’

©ARCHANASARAT2017
14 Achieve Your Resolutions

Step back from the situation. Think logically. What are the two possible outcomes when you ask

someone something. Either they say yes, or they say no.

If they say yes, you have gotten what you want. If they say no, you are at the same place where

you started. You haven’t lost anything.

So, be confident and ask.

To summarise, the four principles that you need to equip yourself with on your journey are:

1) Concentrate on the present with complete focus.

2) Take 100% responsibility for your life.

3) Be positive and believe in abundance.

4) Ask confidently.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT ROAD

Dreams

Dreams are ethereal beings that float away into oblivion. Most of our new year resolutions fall in

this category. We want to:

➢ Lose weight

➢ Exercise every day

➢ Create art

➢ Write a book

➢ Meditate

➢ Spend time with family

➢ Help the poor, etc.

However, within a month, all these resolutions wither away and nothing remains. This is because

these are dreams. Dreams need to have a solid shape for them to materialise. Before we talk

about that, let us do the next exercise in the workbook.

Imagine that the year is 2023, i.e. 5 years from now. Make a list of all the things that you have in

your life now. By things, I mean not just material things but also relationships, family, friends,

children, profession, hobbies, health, body weight, fitness, vacations, work–life balance, bank

balance, investments, houses, cars, charities supported, etc. Do not restrain your imagination.

Believe in yourself. Believe in abundance, and dream away.

WORKBOOK: Do Exercise 2 in the workbook before reading further.

©ARCHANASARAT2017
16 Achieve Your Resolutions

Goals

Dreams are good, but they cannot materialise if they remain as dreams. These dreams define how

you would prefer your ideal destination to be, but they do not tell me what is the destination. It is

the goal that defines our dreams and gives it a solid shape.

Let me explain this further. You want to go for a vacation to a beach resort. This is a dream. This

cannot materialise until you tell me whether the resort you want to go to is in Goa or in Hawaii.

Also, you haven’t told me whether you want to go in May or in December. You also must tell me

if you want to go now or ten years from now. Unless you give me all this information, I cannot

fulfil your dream.

The same is true with the universe. Unless you are clear what you want from the universe and by

when, the universe cannot give it to you.

'And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.'

- Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist

So, now convert your dreams into concrete goals. There are two features that define a goal:

1) The goal should tell you ‘how much’ and

2) The goal should tell you ‘by when’

For example,

➢ ‘I want to lose weight’ is a dream. ‘I will lose five kilograms by 5pm on the 30th June

2018’ is a goal.

©ARCHANASARAT2017
17 Achieve Your Resolutions

➢ ‘I want to write a book’ is a dream. ‘I want to write a book about ‘Achieving New Year

Resolutions’ and deliver it to everyone interested before 6pm on the 31st of December

2017’ is a goal.

➢ ‘I will exercise everyday’ is a dream. ‘I will take a gym membership immediately and

will go to the gym from 6am to 7am every day’ is a goal.

➢ ‘I want a big house’ is a dream. ‘I want a 4000 square feet beach-facing bungalow in

Mumbai’ is a goal.

Therefore, a goal should be

➢ Clear,

➢ Specific,

➢ Quantifiable, (rupees, kilograms, pages, canvasses, square feet, etc.) and

➢ Have a deadline

Make sure that your goals are challenging enough to scare and excite you. If you have always

been reading 10 books a year, a goal of reading 12 books a year is not challenging. If you decide

to read 30 books this year, then that will stretch and test you.

WORKBOOK: Complete Exercise 3 before proceeding further.

EXERCISE 3:

Read through each of the dreams that you have mentioned in the previous exercise. Based on the

vision of the perfect life that you have conjured up for yourself, create a list of goals that you

want to achieve. Make sure that they are measurable and that they have deadlines. The sky is the

limit. Write down as many goals as you want.

©ARCHANASARAT2017
18 Achieve Your Resolutions

What do I do with the Goals that I have written down?

After you have jotted down the goals, along with how you will measure them and by when you

will achieve them, it is important to constantly remind yourself about them. Right now, your

goals have emerged from your dreams for the next five years. Every year, or maybe every few

months, you may dream bigger and your goal should also evolve to achieve that. So, maintain a

‘Goals Journal’ and write down your goals in that book. Keep adding goals to them. When you

accomplish a goal, tick it off in the journal. This gives such an indescribable high that will spur

you on to greater heights.

READ YOUR GOALS TWICE A DAY. If you can read them out aloud, do so. If that makes

you uncomfortable, read them softly but visualise your goals as if you have already achieved that

goal. For instance, if your goal is to write a book, imagine yourself autographing your book as an

excited queue of fans have gathered to meet you. Believe in the power of your dreams and

visions.

As your goal journal keeps growing, it might be difficult to read all the goals that you have listed

there for the next fifty years of your life. If so, then read the goals that have a deadline within the

next five years. Read them twice a day, after you get up in the morning and before you go to bed.

At least, once a week, read all the goals that you have jotted in your journal.

Choose your path

A goal is the destination that you want to reach. Now, you must choose the path through which

you are going to reach that destination.

So, if you want to be a published author by 6pm on 30th December 2018, then you must work out

the steps that will help you achieve that goal.

©ARCHANASARAT2017
19 Achieve Your Resolutions

➢ Choose the genre and Plan the story – Jan 1st to Jan 15th

➢ Write the first draft of the book – Jan 15th to Feb 28th

➢ Rewrite and Edit the book – March 1st to April 15th

➢ Create a book proposal and send to agents – April 15th to April 30th

➢ Keep following up – May & June

➢ With luck and efforts, you have a publishing deal by July or August.

Remember, contacting a publisher is ‘asking’. If he refuses, it only means you haven’t asked the

right person. Keep trying!

So, this is how you break down your goal into smaller actionable steps with clear deadlines. Do

this for all your goals. Another example: If you plan to spend quality time with your spouse,

create a goal that you both will go on twenty dates without friends or children and spend quality

time together. Break it down and fix the dates and timing that will work out for both of you.

WORKBOOK: Please do Exercise 4 before proceeding further.

STAY ON PATH

New Year Resolutions

When I had started out with this book, I told you about how I tweaked my resolutions a little bit

and how that boosted my productivity tremendously. Let me share my exact process with you.

After writing down my future dreams and plans, I created goals just like how I had described in

the previous chapter. Then, I broke down the goals further so that it is easier to implement them

in my life every day.

After doing all of this, I created my New Year Resolutions. Usually, we create our New Year

Resolutions and then think of ways to achieve them. I did the reverse.

➢ I decided my destination,

➢ chose the road to it and

➢ then decided what I needed to do this year to take me further down the road to my

destination.

Another thing that I did differently was to frame my resolutions in the form of affirmations. I

convert each goal that I have chosen into an affirmation.

For instance,

➢ if I want to lose five kilograms and become 60 kilograms, I say, “I am healthy and fit

weighing my ideal weight of 60 kilos!”

➢ if I want to become a published author, I say, “I am happily autographing books for the

queue of fans standing before me.”

©ARCHANASARAT2017
21 Achieve Your Resolutions

➢ If you want a sea facing apartment, you say, “I am calmly enjoying the sea breeze on the

balcony of my 4000 square feet sea facing apartment.”

When we convert our resolutions into affirmations, we start visualising our dreams as reality.

This motivates us tremendously and pushes us towards action.

After converting your goals into New Year Resolutions, READ THEM OUT LOUD TWICE A

DAY after you have read your goals. If you can, keep a copy in your purse, stick it in front of

your desk, and read them even more than twice if possible. Every time, you read the affirmation,

close your eyes and imagine yourself experiencing what you are saying.

The more clearly that you can visualise your resolution, the more probable it is that you will

achieve the same.

A well-written affirmation has the following characteristics:

➢ It begins with the words, ‘I am…’

➢ It is simple and concise

➢ It is in present tense and speaks as if you have achieved the goal

➢ It is positive and does not have any words with negative connotations. For example, don’t

say, ‘I am losing five kilos’ or ‘I have lost five kilos’. Say, ‘I am healthy and pretty at

sixty kilos’.

➢ It is specific with clear description. Mention the colour of the car, the genre of the book

or the size or location of the house, etc.

WORKBOOK: Please complete Exercise 5, before proceeding further.

ACT NOW

"There is no elevator to success—you have to take the stairs."

—Anonymous

Now, you have your dreams, goals, path and affirmations ready. How do you put them all to

work for you?

If you remember, I had mentioned in the beginning of this book that I had completed the first

draft of two crime thrillers, wrote two children’s books, completed and registered a screenplay

for a two-hour-feature film, published a collection of my flash fiction stories and wrote four short

stories in a period of six months. I had also read thirty-five fiction books and twenty non-fiction

books in this period.

The reason why I was able to be this productive in those six months was because I had immense

clarity about who I wanted to be and where I wanted to reach for the first time in my life. I hope

this book and the accompanying workbook do the same for you.

However, there is one thing that you need to remember. All the planning and goal-setting in the

world cannot take you even a step closer to your destination if you do not act upon it.

The Five Second Rule

The biggest enemy of productivity is procrastination. Call it by whatever name you please,

writers block, laziness, resistance or anything, but it exists. Whenever you want to make some

change in your life for the better, it rears its ugly head out and blocks your way. That was when I

read about the 5-second rule. It can literally change your life.

©ARCHANASARAT2017
23 Achieve Your Resolutions

Whenever you THINK of doing something, you take the first step within the next five seconds.

Let’s say that you are home after a long tiring day at office. Just before you go to bed, you

wonder if you should make the outline for the next chapter in the novel that you are writing.

Now, this is something in your goals and resolution and it is good for you. Before you decide

whether to write or not, according to this rule, you should do something to move you towards

this idea. Say, you pick up your pen and book within five seconds of the thought striking you.

Usually, once you have picked up the pen, you would keep going. It is the starting that is

difficult.

As soon as you wonder whether to go to the gym or not, take your scooter keys, grab your gym

bag and step out of house. I’m sure you will not step back inside the house but will go on to the

gym. It is the first five seconds that play havoc and prevent you from achieving all that you can

do.

If you want to know more about this rule and how to apply it, read the following books:

1) The 5 Second Rule: Transform your Life, Work, and Confidence with Everyday Courage

by Mel Robbins

2) The Power of Habit: Why We Do What We Do, and How to Change by Charles Duhigg

and Mike Chamberlain

3) Eat That Frog!: 21 Great Ways to Stop Procrastinating and Get More Done in Less Time

by Brian Tracy

Success cannot be achieved in a single day. It takes consistent effort, persistence and

perseverance, for you to move towards your goals and reach your destination.

KEY POINTS TO REMEMBER

➢ When creating goals, focus on all areas of your life. Don’t stick to only professional or

financial goals. Make personal goals, family goals, relationship goals, parenting goals, etc

too. You can achieve happiness and contentment only if your life is balanced in all areas.

➢ Remember to read your goals and affirmations, at least twice a day, every day. When you

read them out, close your eyes and visualise yourself as if you have already achieved

them.

➢ When you work on creating new habits, do it one at a time. Let us say that you plan to

forego sugar in your diet. When you are doing this, don’t tie yourself to writing every day

or exercising every day too. Give it a month at least before your new habit becomes a part

of your lifestyle. Then, take up the next habit. Any permanent change takes a lot of

willpower and effort. So, go easy on yourself.
