5 Resolutions to Kick Off the New Year

By December 24, 2020February 4th, 2021No Comments

This is the final blog of the year…wait…DECADE! Predictably, I am going to talk about self-reflection, goal-setting, and resolutions. But, this is going to be on a much bigger scale because we are given more than a years’ clean slate, we are being given a new decade.  Let’s make it worthwhile.

What are you wanting to improve about yourself and your life? If you aren’t sure, take time to reflect on the last decade.  What were your dreams 10 years ago?  What goals and resolutions have you made? Did you stick with your resolutions and reach your goals? If not, what kept you from achieving them? Where do you want to be 10 years from now?  Tomorrow is your fresh start.  Let it inspire you!

Here are a few potential resolutions to help you start off the new decade with a BANG!

  1. Pick one word to live by for the next year (or decade). For instance, a few years ago my word was present. I wanted to be present in all of my interactions.  So, instead of making a resolution that year, I let my word direct how I would live for the year.  It helped me to stay focused on my goals.
  2. Get rid of things. By things, I mean material objects, as well as mental baggage.
  3. Disconnect..from social media. Even if you just reduce your social media time by one hour a day you are redirecting that time doing something else (hopefully worthwhile).  Think of it like this, by cutting down one hour a day you will have an extra 365 hours for self-improvement.
  4. Break a habit. Use your extra 365 hours to make a new (healthier) habit since it takes about 66 days to form a new habit.
  5. Live intentionally by making mindful choices to live based on your values and beliefs.

There are so many directions 2020 can take you. You are at the wheel, so make sure you are directing 2020.  Wishing you all much joy and many blessings in the new year and the new decade.  Share your resolutions with us and keep us updated on your progress!  Tomorrow is the first blank page of 2020.

There is nothing magical about the flip of the calendar, but it represents a clean break, a new hope, and a blank canvas. –Jason Soroski
