As January rolls around again and as we clean away the Christmas tree and get back to work, it’s that time again.

The time when our thoughts turn towards a few carefully chosen New Year's resolutions.

The thing is, perhaps you do it every year with good intentions. Then, a few weeks later they have turned to dust, while you are still finding needles from the Christmas tree everywhere.

So, here are some ideas to help you get the most of those ideas for change. It is all about the way you think about things. If you think you're going to fail, you are more likely to give in, so going into the New Year with the right attitude will pay dividends.

Pick a specific goal, not a general one

Don’t be vauge, be more specific. If you have decided that this is the year that you're going to lose lots of weight or get rich then you have too wide an idea to get your head around.

Your goal needs to be something measurable and specific, so you know exactly what steps to take to get you there. You can then break it into manageable steps that make it much easier.

Think positive not negative to start with

If your thoughts are around stopping being so fat or lazy or grumpy, then you're going about it the wrong way.

Think about what you want. So imagine that you want to be fitter with a goal, say...running a 5K race in six months. Then when you break this down you can see the benefits to your health and happiness. Turning a negative into a positive can have real benefits.

Don’t rush it..there’s plenty of time

You have all year, so you don’t need to do it all in the next two weeks. How many people go on crash diets at the start of the year? Well, you probably didn’t put it all on in two weeks, so you don’t need to take it off in a quick time. Take your time and you are much more likely to succeed.

That’s why my weight loss programme is only for people who are happy not to rush!

Keep that motivation going

This can be the hardest part and it is where so many of us fall down. You start off January raring to go and then as the year wears on you find that your motivation has dropped and dropped.  When you break things down into chunks then that resolution seems so much less daunting.

Just take one step at a time.

It’s always good to start the New Year with good intentions, so perhaps just start with going for an extra walk and getting some fresh air and then spending that time thinking about all the possibilities for you.

Why has Paul released this book now?

Paul McKenna is always keen to tap into the latest news and in the last year we have seen more and more research published that shows we can eat fat, something that we were told for years was bad for us.  The real problem in our society is the intake of sugar and that is being credited with the explosion in obesity that we face as a country. Now is the ideal time for Paul to be tapping into that market and giving people a quick fix.

Do Paul Mckenna Books work?

It's an interesting questions. You may think that as a Hypnotherapist myself I would prefer people not to just buy a book when they could come and see me and work one to one. Of course, I do believe that you get better results when you are working with a therapist who is using what they learn about you to give you exactly what you want. Having said that I do think that one of the things Paul McKenna does best is tap into the needs of society, so if you are highly motivated then there is nothing wrong with giving his ideas a try. They may not work for everyone, but sometimes they can be a good introduction to what is possible when you work with someone in person.

If you want to find the new Book Get Control of Sugar Now on Amazon you can get it here:

There are 20 amputations from ­diabetes as well as 500 heart attacks and 400 deaths from cardiovascular disease each day in the UK all linked to sugar, according to his team of researchers.

But giving it up can simply be a matter of re-programming your mind says Paul Mckenna. 

“Sugar is the most dangerous drug in the world. For the last five or six years I’ve looked into the dangers of sugar and it is beyond alarming.

“This is your chance to think new year, new life. Sugar is a silent, deadly killer and I can help you stop wanting it.”
