Forget New Year Resolutions
Before the end of a year everyone starts talking about what their new year resolutions are going to be, then after new year everyone tells you about the resolutions that they’ve set and asks you about yours. Every single health magazine has at least one article about resolutions, twitter is full of resolution tweets. By week 5 or 6 they’ve faded, been forgotton or failed. That is until next year.
I think it’s time to change our thinking. I think we should toss New Year’s resolutions out of the window as well as diets that start on Mondays. Rather let’s have an ongoing goal to change one thing at a time. It should be ongoing, one week rolling into the next, month after month, year after year, regardless of the day, date or year.
If you want to lose weight decide on what one thing you’re going to change and do it. If you want to lead a healthier lifestyle, decide on the one thing you want to change and start. When you’ve mastered that one change select the next one. Small changes, big impact. Forget New Year’s resolutions and ditch diets that start on Mondays. Start now, don’t wait.
