The resolutions we make in crucial moment of the year in general or in special moment of our life tend to leave us disappointed because we hardly ever meet our own expectations. The disappointment is often so difficult to face that we prefer to forget having made resolutions in the first place.
That is a pity if you ask me, there is a treasure of information behind all those unfulfilled resolution, disappointed dreams and failed launches. Here some tips on how to harvest some self-awareness from failed projects.
A personal example: not longer than a month ago I had an idea, I put all my knowledge, enthusiasm and hard work into realizing my idea only to fail miserably. On second thought I realized that the reason I was pursuing that idea was not aligned with who I really am, what I really want to do and that I was therefore relieved it didn’t go through.
If something we want doesn’t happen there is always more information to find out about the reasons why:
Why did you want that (whatever it was)?
This is a good question that can be asked few times if needed and that requires an honest answer from your heart.
How does that plan/desire/resolution fit in your bigger life project?
You want to make sure the answer here is yes of you are better off putting aside that project for something more aligned to your purpose.
