Retirement Resources President and Investment Advisor, Dave Boike writes about why most New Year’s resolutions fail and offers suggestions for success no matter the goal may be.

Auburn Hills, MI — January 19, 2022— Dave Boike, President of Retirement Resources and co-author of The Ultimate Success Guide with Brian Tracy, published a new article on the company website entitled, “When Saving For Retirement Is Your New Year’s Resolution,” in which Mr. Boike encourages actions that lead to success.

Boike states, “You know how you feel when there is a task you have to accomplish that feels overwhelming.” He continues, “Initially, many people freeze. Let me let you in on a big secret. That’s why most New Year’s resolutions almost always fail. That’s right,” Boike says, “in the enthusiasm of the moment, most people set huge goals and before the end of January, feeling completely overwhelmed, they have abandoned them.”

According to Boike, “Other people approach seemingly overwhelming tasks differently. They break the task down into small, easily accomplished steps. So,” he says, “whatever your goal or resolution may be, whether to get in shape, lose weight or start saving for retirement, if you really want to succeed, start with small goals and build on the “little wins.””

Boike points out that, “It was the Chinese philosopher Lao-tzu who said, “The journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step.” And so it is with every type of journey you embark upon,” Boike emphasizes. He elaborates, “Saving for retirement doesn’t begin with the resolution to save a million dollars. It begins with the small step of organizing your finances to see where you stand financially.” He adds, “You may need to set up and follow a budget.”
