Resolutions, Iacocca and the Code

Most people make New Year’s resolutions – and most people give up on them within a short period of time. Why? It’s usually because they are too difficult to achieve, and so they give up. The secret to improving in anything is by creating short term achievable goals, which lead to long term greater goals. When Lee Iacocca was the Chairman of Chrysler, he would take time every Sunday night to make a list of things he wanted to accomplish that week. Where are you in your sport? The Code says, “I will develop my skills to the best of my ability…” Do you have short term goals that you are working on and achieving? Why not take five minutes additional each day for one week to work on one skill?
