It’s Not Too Late for New Year’s Resolutions!
So here we are on January 7. How are you doing on your New Years resolutions? Did you make any or was your resolution to make resolutions? The good news is, if you want to make new years resolutions it’s never too late.
Many people scoff at the idea of resolutions and there is a saying that the best resolution is to forget about resolutions. I admit the premise is kind of strange. Why people feel the need to change themselves when the calendar changes years makes sense in theory (new year, new you) but there has to be a way to keep track and monitor those resolutions. How do you track them? How will you stick to your resolutions? For some it may be best to report back on your progress once a month.
Write down your resolutions, or type them up in a computer file, and keep it somewhere safe. Take them to heart and think about your strategies for fulfilling your resolutions. It may take time to make some resolutions a habit. At some given time I will call on you to check your resolutions in an attempt to remind you about them. Let’s face it, many people forget about resolutions past January, right?
Popular resolutions include;
- Lose weight (get in shape)
- Quit smoking
- Save more money
- Eat healthier
- Quit drinking
- Get more organized
- Stay in contact with family and friends better
- Be a nicer person
- Learn a new language
