    About this ebook

    Are you about to make a New Year's Resolution for 2017, but THIS time you want to make sure you keep it and achieve your goals?

    If you do, then download this book today!

    Did you know that only 8% of make a New Year's Resolution actually keep it and reach their goal? If you're in that 8%, you may not need this book... But if you're in the other 92%, and this time you want to avoid feeling overwhelmed, frustrated and being stuck when trying to keep your New Year's Resolution.

    Martin Kaye used to make New Year Resolutions and set goals at the start of each year. Only to stick with them for a couple of weeks before running out of steam, feeling less and less energized and less and less "motivated"... Eventually he turned to science in order to learn the reasons for this, as well has what really works.

    The first thing he learned was that in order to succeed, he had to treat his New Year's Resolutions as a Goal. Jotting something down on a napkin five minutes before the stroke of midnight, doesn't cut it.

    He also learned that setting and achieving goals is a lot more complex than just setting that SMART or BIG goal, and then setting out to achieve it. It takes building willpower, establishing habits, learning how motivation works, understanding happiness, and then taking all those factors into account and putting them into a complete, step-by-step, system.

    No matter what you want your New Year's Resolution to be about, this book gives you an introduction - all based on research rather than untested self-help - moving beyond just relying on positive thinking, visualizations and affirmations.

    In this book you will learn:

    • The THREE problems with self-help advice and life coaches
    • The importance of using your strengths
    • How to avoid the Rat Race
    • How Motivation really works
    • Why Positive Thinking leads to Negative Results
    • How to use two simple daily routines

    You also get a goal setting workbook with the TEN proven steps to creating a plan that leads to real results, to download and print out and use as a tool when setting your goals, as well as a companion on your journey towards making your New Year's Resolutions stick.

    Are you ready to discover a scientific approach to how to set and achieve goals? Are you ready to Take Action?

    Then instantly get your hands on your copy!

      New Year's Resolution Success - The Evidence-Based Approach (Workbook Included) - Martin Kaye

      1. Introduction

      For every problem that is muddled by over-complexity, a dozen are muddled by over-simplifying ~ Sydney J. Harris

      For a long time, the science of psychology has been focused on the negative aspects of human behavior. It mainly worked within the disease model. Psychology was about finding what is wrong with you. Spot the looney, as Martin Seligman, the former President of the American Psychological Association (APA), puts it.

      This negative focus was of course of great value. We now know a lot more about treating, or even curing, several mental disorders. The problem was, that we knew very little about things like happiness, success, goal achievement, positive habits, motivation, and so on. From a scientific point of view, there was simply a lack of balance.

      As a result, when it came to these topics, most people were left to figure it for themselves, or to listen to, or watch someone who (at least according to themselves) had figured it out. The obvious downside of this was that it wasn’t really possible to verify whether the advice that was given was good or not. It could seem to make sense, and people would apply it, but in actuality the method could have severe flaws. Or, the advice could be 100% correct, but it would seem counterintuitive to many - not feel right - and thus a lot of people would dismiss it and never implement it.

      Over the course of the last 10-15 years or so, the field of psychology has however started to catch up. We now know a lot more about the positive aspects or our psychology, for example what makes us happy, how we can maximize the chance of achieving the goals we set, or how motivation actually works. This modern research has verified some
