New Year, New Start
from The Tutor Podcast · host Neil Cowmeadow
New Year is looming. What does that mean to you? Are you hoping for change? Well, Neil is here to remind you that nothing is going to change unless you do. KEY TAKEAWAYS Whatever it is you’re going to do, try not to start with a New Year's resolution. The vast majority of those are broken, and you want to make permanent positive change. The biggest failure point of New Year’s resolutions is the indefinite nature of goal setting. They are too vague. Set clear measurable markers and surround yourself with people who will hold you to account, support you and help you along your way. BEST MOMENTS ‘Because change is fairly a one-shot and then done affair. More often it’s a process of constant reinforcement of the desired behaviour and the monitoring of results.’ ‘For many people, there’s no process. They’ll set the goal without any awareness of what they actually need to do to get there.’ ‘For me, if something isn’t written down it doesn’t exist. That’s why business transactions are conducted on paper.’ VALUABLE RESOURCES The Tutor Podcast www.Neilcowmeadow.com ABOUT THE HOST Neil Cowmeadow is a maverick peripatetic guitar teacher from Telford with over 19 years’ experience in the business of helping people.
