1. A Resolution to spend more time with
family
As our lives are so
hectic and consumed by our careers, professions, personal and family life takes
a backseat and sadly, that affects our loved ones and relationships, so
resolving to spend more time with family is a good idea.
You can try to
incorporate time for them in your bust schedule by trying to pick a time or
activity that the family can do together, simple things like having dinner
together too makes a difference as the end of day normally have things that are
shared between family members.
It’s a funny yet
statistically proven fact that the first of January is perhaps the most packed
day for gyms, and the month of January fetches in the most profits as most
people resolve to exercise more and get fitter, however by the month of
February things come back to normal, so in the resolution fever do not set up
extreme goals, the point is to make an activity enjoyable so that it is
sustainable, once you become regular, attaining your fitness goals would be the
easiest thing.
Apart from the resolution to getting fitter the other most
popular resolution is to lose weight, and probably the only way to achieve that
is to set goals that are realistic and set small targets that can be achieved
sooner and hence keep motivating you.
Dieting is perhaps the unhealthiest way
to go about it, since giving up things usually leads to binging later.
3. Quit smoking/alcohol
If you have
resolved to make this the year that you stamp out your smoking habit,
over-the-counter availability of nicotine replacement therapy now provides
easier access to proven quit-smoking aids. Even if you've tried to quit before
and failed, don't let it get you down.
Most of us label ourselves as social drinkers,
but more often than not wake up with massive hangovers in the mornings. Over
consumption of alcohol is not only hurtful for the liver but also for the
wallet, so trying to curb your alcohol consumption might actually go a long way
into helping you physically as well as financially.
4. Aim towards a stress free life & try
enjoying it a little more
It’s a common
complaint by most people that they are constantly plagued by stress, so it is
time to take matter in your hands and try to relax by indulging in your
favourite activities more often. Take up a new hobby .
Doing so not only makes you feel more relaxed but
also enhances your performance in the working stage.
5. Learn something new
Have you vowed to make this year, the year to learn something new? Perhaps
you are considering a career change, want to learn a new language, or just how
to fix your computer? Whether you take a course or read a book, you'll find
education to be one of the easiest, most motivating New Year's resolutions to
keep.
6. Cultivating healthy
eating habits
Though most
people resolve to crash diets and diet fads to get fitter and slimmer, it is a
known fact that such methods do not help that much, so trying to cultivate
healthy eating habits is perhaps the best way to be healthier for the longer
term, cutting out on processed foods, unsaturated fats, sugar, can lead to
achieving all your physical goals.
7. Better money management
8. Be more spiritual, look
deep into yourself
Spiritualism is the key to being a calmer, more composed & confident
person. It helps you look into who you really are & helps you to discover
unknown facts about yourself, which are sure to amaze you! So let this new year
be an opportunity towards being a better person.
9. Help others, do more
social work
A popular,
non-selfish New Year's resolution, volunteerism can take many forms. Whether
you choose to spend time helping out at a nearby orphanage or old-age home or a
clean-up drive, it’s your pick! If nothing much works out, donation is always
an option, be it in cash or kind...
10. Get more sleep
It is very
important to have a new year’s resolution that aims at getting proper sleep
because that promotes better health, stability of mind, learning capability and
enhanced performance at any workplace.
