7SEVEN
STRATEGIES FOR
HIGHLY EFFECTIVE
NEW YEAR’S
RESOLUTIONS
New Year’s Eve is just around the corner. It’s likely that at least one person will ask you what your resolutions are for the
year ahead. Whether you like to make them or not, research has found that people who make resolutions are 10 times more
likely to attain their goals than people who don’t explicitly make resolutions. Yet as you know, it’s not so easy to keep your
resolve as life returns to normal and your old habits of mind and action start testing your resolve and pulling you away
from the new ones you resolved to create. Change is difficult, yet as hard as it is, everyone has the ability to make and keep
meaningful changes in their life, regardless of their age, or how well worn their habitual ways of engaging in the world.
Indeed there’s a science to success when it comes to achieving goals and making life changes - whether on January 1 st
or any other time of year. Below are 7 strategies to help you make the changes you want in the year ahead - including
making the right resolutions to begin with. I hope you will read it, but more so, I hope you will apply them so that 2017
will truly be the best year of your life. Not because everything will go as you want, but because you be firmly at the helm
of your own life - living by design rather than by default.
1. Know Your Why. For a resolution to stick, it has to be aligned with your core values. We all want to look better or get
richer, but your resolutions have to go beyond superficial desires and connect with what truly matters most to you. In
other words, you have to “Know your why” and feel truly passionate about the goals you set for yourself. If you don’t,
then when the going gets tough or your alarm goes off at 5:30 AM, you won’t have the resolve to stick to your plan.
Connect your resolutions to those things that give you a deeper sense of purpose and align with your core values. When
your resolutions connect to a deeper sense of purpose, it compels you not to think small or play safe, but to dig deep and
stay the course when the going gets tough - no matter how many hurdles.
2. Be Specific. Resolutions to ‘eat better, get fitter, be happier, relax more or have better life balance’ are doomed for failure because they lack specificity.
The more specific you are, the more likely you will be able to succeed. Describe your goals and resolutions in ways that allow you to track your progress
and measure your success. For instance, if you want to build a better relationship with your partner, schedule at least one date night per month or, as
I’ve done with my husband, one weekend away - sans kids - per year. Likewise, if you’re committed to a better health and exercise regime, schedule how
many workouts you’ll fit into each week.

RUOK PROGRAM
Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Dept. has a computer-generated program called
“Are You OK?” (RUOK). It is a computer-generated call intended for senior
citizens (over 55) and disabled persons who live alone and could benefit
from a daily check. A computer will generate a call each morning, at about
the same time and the participant chooses a time frame. A voice will ask,
“Are you OK?” After this, all they have to do is hang up the phone. If the
participant goes out of town or leaves the residence for any time, you just
temporarily un-subscribe and re-subscribe when you return. If the call goes
unanswered, the computer will call back 3 times at 15-minute intervals. If
there is still no answer, the Sheriff will dispatch a deputy or the local police.
They will have with them a print out of information on the person that is not
responding to the calls. This program was established by FBC Sheriff Milton
Wright, Commissioner’s Court and Ken Whitt (FBC Sheriff’s Citizens Academy
Alumni Assoc.) in 1998. Many police chiefs in the county are also participating
in the program and will proceed with the welfare check for citizens of their
community. To request more information or to enroll in this free and very
beneficial program, please call the Sheriff’s Dept. at 281-341-4704.
FORT BEND COUNTY “LEASH LAW”
Animal control authorities are permitted to enter your Property to patrol
and remove pets. Pets must be registered, licensed and inoculated as
required by law. As a dog owner, you are responsible for the control of
your dog. If your dog is one that ‘makes objectionable noise,’ you must
make every effort to respect your Neighbor’s right to their ‘peace and
quiet.’ When your dog is not in your yard, it is imperative that you keep
your dog on a leash at all times. While your dog is friendly to you and your
family, imagine the consequences if it were to harm someone while it was
‘roaming free.’ Please respect other resident’s right to walk the common
area ground without fear of attack from an unleashed dog. Laws are
written to ensure that owned animals are confined to their property or
kept on a leash to free a community of unrestrained and free-roaming
animals. Although most dog bites occur on the property where the dog
lives, unrestrained or free-roaming dogs do pose a substantial threat
to the public. In addition, unrestrained animals are at increased risk of
being bitten by rabies infected wildlife. Enforcement of restraint laws is
essential in enhancing the animal control program’s efforts to reduce the
risk of rabies in our community.
RECYCLE AT THE FT. BEND COUNTY
RECYCLING CENTER!
The Ft. Bend County Recycling center is located nearby in Rosenberg
(just 10 miles away) and accepts glass/bottles and Styrofoam that Waste
Management doesn’t pick up. Visit the Ft. Bend Co. government website
for information: www.co.fort-bend.tx.us. Some recycling facts:
• It takes about 1-2 million years for glass to decompose.
• It takes 1+ million years for Styrofoam to decompose.
For more facts on decomposition time, visit http://behealthyandrelax.
com/2007/11/how-long-does-it-take-to-decompose.
PLEASE NOTE - PETS ON LEASHES
It is the law in Fort Bend County that all pets must be vaccinated for
rabies, registered and restrained. All animals, when outside of an owner’s
means of restraint (i.e., in a fenced back yard), must be on a leash. For the
safety of all residents, please use all precautions with your pets and
keep them on leashes when walking pets in the community EVEN IF
