We hope your Christmas was full of joy and cheer…
As we approach the conclusion of the year and the beginning of a new one, anticipation for positive changes and a new chapter builds. If you’re thinking about adopting the tradition of a New Year’s resolution but find yourself stumped for a fitting goal that aligns with your individual aspirations, fear not. Below are 20 resolutions to consider in the upcoming year.
- Explore new culinary horizons: Build your cooking skills and savour the sense of accomplishment that follows. Start by searching for ‘new recipes.’
- Immerse yourself in an audiobook: Exercise your mind and unwind. Take advantage of free trial offers on audiobook platforms.
- Take the stairs: Opt for the stairs to give your cardiovascular system a boost. Feel the burn in your calf muscles.
- Consider therapy: While it’s not a universal remedy, therapy has the potential to offer support to those who choose to explore it.
- Volunteer: Extend a helping hand and reap the rewards of doing good while feeling good about your contributions.
- Practise body positivity: Appreciate your unique and beautiful body.
- Declutter the kitchen: Tackle one cupboard at a time. Because slow and ready wins the race.
- Revamp your wardrobe sustainably: Share the joy by up-cycling clothes you forgot you had.
- Listen to a new genre of music: Diversify your music taste. You might be pleasantly surprised with a newfound favourite.
- Stop gossiping: Rise above the temptation to engage in gossip – it’s unkind.
- Go somewhere you’ve never been: Break free from your comfort zone and embrace discomfort as a sign of personal growth and progress.
- Detox from your phone: Take a break from the digital world. You’ll survive – I promise.
- Count your blessings: Write a list of things you are grateful for, serving as a reminder of the positivity in your life.
- Take a portion of your pay and put it in savings: A small amount regularly will quickly add up to a nice financial cushion.
- Sanitise your stuff: Keyboard. Phone. Steering wheel. Gross!
- Distance yourself from chronic complainers: Surround yourself with positivity by saying goodbye to habitual complainers.
- Stop meaningless complaining: Choose meaningful conversation instead. Radiate positivity rather than draining energy.
- Do something scary: Confront your fears, be brave and discover the extraordinary capabilities within you.
- Stretch: Stttrrreeeeeeeetttccchhh.
- Talk less, listen more: Listening is sometimes more powerful than words.
Hope your New Year is a Doozy!
