Making Small Changes: Resolutions That Last

As we welcome the new year, it's the perfect time to embrace growth, cultivate new habits, and strengthen our relationships. Whether your goals are centered around health or career, there are no shortage of ideas to implement in the year ahead. However, many people quickly lose track of their goals. Here are some practical tips to ensure your resolutions stick:
» Set Specific Goals: Instead of vague resolutions like "get healthy," specify smaller milestones, such as "exercise three times a week" or "cook at home five nights a week."
» Track Your Progress: Check in with yourself weekly or monthly. If you have a goal to read one book per month, set a reminder on your phone at the beginning of the month or make a list you can check off.
» Give Yourself a Timeline: Setting a date to achieve your goal can help motivate you to complete something you've always wanted to do, such as saving a certain amount of money by June or hiking a mountain by the end of summer.
» Focus on Changing Habits: Develop small habits that will fit smoothly into your everyday life rather than big achievements that are harder to maintain. For example, if you want to get more sleep, create an earlier, relaxing bedtime routine and say no to late-night shows.
» Prioritize: Choose fewer goals that are important to you rather than overwhelming yourself with a long list. If you've always wanted to take a cooking class, put that at the top of your list.
» Plan for Setbacks: Realize that life may throw obstacles in the way of your plans, so give yourself room to work around problems and get back on track.
» Celebrate Your Progress: Set mini milestones and reward yourself. If you ran five miles for the first time, treat yourself to a dinner out with friends or family. Rewards will help you stay motivated!
