GOOD NEWS. News Year’s resolutions are keepable, but you need to start planning now. Here’s how:
73% of us will make New Year’s resolutions and science shows us that RIGHT NOW is the best time to start planning them. Self-improvement or education related resolutions account for ½ of all resolutions but despairingly only 8% of us will actually fully do what we faithfully promise to ourselves that we will do.
The top 5 resolutions are:
1. Lose Weight / Get fit
2. Getting Organized
3. Spend Less, Save More
4. Enjoy Life to the Fullest
5. Learn Something Exciting
You can improve your chances of keeping your resolution by pre planning. It’s proven!
These things will increase your chances of sticking to what you want to achieve:
1. Pick only one resolution.
2. Take small but definitive steps – make it a habit.
Planning is a big part of this, try it out, have a go and see if
the habit is enjoyable.
3. Hold yourself accountable for what you want to change
Tell others, write it down, make a booking, tell Go Rin Pou!
4. Focus on the carrot not the stick.
Positive feedback and rewards increase your chance of
success. When you know that you are doing something that
will improve your life, the reward is often internal, the best
sort!
Now for the GREAT news. You can do all of these with 1 resolution! Here’s how:
1. Book yourself in for 2 free self-defence lessons right here on
Bribie at the High School on Thursdays 6pm
2. This will be enough for you to know if you like it ready for
next year. A great small step!
3. You will learn a very valuable skill, one you can keep forever
and will improve the quality of your life and that of your loved
ones. SELF DEFENCE IS FOR LIFE
4. Practitioners always improve their fitness and lose weight, the
gentle way, through increased activity.
5. Weekly lessons are a great habit and once you start learning
you will find the increased self-awareness & self-confidence
are quite a powerful incentive to continue.
6. Go Rin Pou Ju Jitsu is a “Not For Profit” club. We work closely
with the PCYC to keep prices down and value up.
New Year’s Resolution helpers: It costs nothing to try and there are no strings, no catches and no contracts. We will never ask you for your credit card number.
In your first lesson we will teach you valuable techniques that are proven to work & that you will remember forever, even if you don’t keep your resolution, you will have still gained valuable life long skills.
Your instructors are very experienced and qualified to teach specifically 'self defense' with Australian Government recognized qualifications. Teaching a martial art is one thing but it takes more than a black belt certificate to teach self defense! What works for a strong, fit martial arts instructor/practitioner in the dojo may not work against a larger stronger attacker in the street. Go Rin Pou Ju jitsu is a collection of devastating techniques that are specifically designed to work on larger, stronger attackers in the street.
Go Rin Pou instructors have been teaching locally in PCYCs and community organisations for over 20 years. They are all Blue Card registered, MAIA accredited, long time members of the AJJA and World Federation. They also have Australian Government recognized 'Training' qualifications and Security certification.
