Motivational Author Says "Put An End To New Year's Resolutions" And Shares The Top 10 Reasons NOT To Make Them

Online, January 5, 2011 (Newswire.com) - 'Tis the season to muster up a bunch of resolutions we know we'll never keep. Yes folks, it's that time of year. Everyone is eagerly writing new goals as well as trying to assess and recommit to unaccomplished goals from the year prior. While it's great to have goals and to recommit, why wait until a certain date? In fact, why make resolutions at all? That's what personal power expert and inspirational speaker, DeLores Pressley, is sharing as she strives to put an end to the making of New Year's Resolutions. Pressley believes it's more important to commit to realistic and attainable goals throughout the year. "I want the world to know that making decisions to improve life is not something that you put on hold until New Year's Day," says Pressley.

Why is it that we set resolutions expecting something magical to happen come January 2nd? Then after weeks of daily commitment to making those resolutions happen, we lose steam. Look at it this way... we charge our cell phones everyday in order to maximize performance and battery life the next day, right? Yet, we only plan to recharge our lives once a year? Pressley, the author of Clean Out the Closets of Your Life and Oh Yes You Can!, suggests recharging your life battery often so you are producing at the point of maximum performance all year long. "Everyone is making New Year's Resolutions. Don't follow the crowd," says Pressley. "Be unique. Commit to making life long resolutions to be YOU."

Pressley shares these top 10 reasons NOT to make resolutions:

10. Making New Year's Resolutions is not automatically going to make you a success.
9. By Valentine's Day (maybe spring) you will likely have forgotten your resolutions.
8. Resolutions are too vague.
7. Resolutions may actually set you up for failure.
6. Resolutions are not realistic or specific enough.
5. Resolutions call for too many changes for one day.
4. Resolutions are based on uncontrolled emotions.
3. Resolutions are not rewarding you for success.
2. Resolutions cause you to ignore why you have not done what you are resolving for this year.
And the #1 reason not to make New Year's Resolutions - they come with fear and worry.
