The most successful resolutions were S.M.A.R.T.

Measurable

Time frame
Another success strategy Norcross discussed was to have a buddy system. Ask 1-3 friends to encourage you, remind you, and keep you on track.
He also spoke about the importance of tracking your progress and giving yourself reward systems along the way.
We will be offering a Get Up Girl Jump Start 2009 Workshop on January 24th in Venice to assist you in making clear and attainable goals for 2009. For more information email us at:
