The beginning of a year is the ideal time to turn a new page in our life, which is probably why so many people create New Year’s Resolutions. A new year comes with the opportunity for a fresh, new start so it is the best time to commit to a healthy lifestyle. Here are some effective tips for you to keep your New Year’s resolutions successfully:

 

Get Specific About Your Goals

Every year, millions of people plan to lose weight or get in shape by the end of the year. Instead of going for such uncertain goals, focus on some that will inspire you to target something more concrete that you can realistically set your sights on. Compare between “I am going to lose weight this year” to “I am going to lose ten pounds by April” and choose wisely.

Start Small And Build Momentum

Don’t ever try to change yourself too much in a short period of time. If anyone is doing so, they’re simply setting themselves up for failure. Instead of doing this, break your goal into a series of smaller targets so that you can celebrate every victory along the way. Focus on the progress you’re making and no matter how inconsequential it seems.

Write Down Your Resolutions

Research shows that you’re more likely to achieve your goals if you note them down. You can take it one step further in this strategy and display the written resolution prominently. Attach a sticky note on your computer or fridge and it will help you more.

Make Yourself Accountable

When it comes to sticking to your resolution, accountability is huge. Always find a way to hold yourself accountable. It can be anything like getting a friend to call, text, or email you once a week, having a co-worker regularly check-in, or keeping a journal detailing your progress, and so on. Keeping track of your tasks helps keep you on track. That’s why to measure your progress every step of the way.

Keep Trying: 

You might find yourself running out of steam when it comes to keeping your resolution by mid-February but don’t despair in this situation. Start over again and again! Recommit yourself for 24 hours and always stick to the plan. Don’t give up unless you have reached your final destination. You can do anything for 24 hours and these 24-hour increments will soon boost and build your confidence before you know it by which you will be back on track.
