Top 10 New Year's Resolution Ideas

1.       Lose Weight, Workout

Getting overweight is not good for the body. The best way to avoid it is working out. It is always for people to say that they will start to follow a workout routine but in reality, that doesn’t happen. Missing the workout plans is because of work or time constraints but dedicating even a few minutes every day can help you achieve this goal.

2.       Eat Healthier Food

This relates to the first item. Eating unhealthy foods makes a person overweight. One of the main culprits is the fast-food. To help you achieve this goal easier, try to avoid eating in fast-food restaurants. Although they are tasty and fast to serve, resort to more nutritious foods like fruits and vegetables which you can also buy quickly in grocery stores and one-stop shops.

3.       Quit Smoking

This is something that actually doesn’t need placed in a NewYear’s resolution because in the first place, you shouldn’t be smoking at all. You don’t need a New Year’s resolution just to quit it.

But given this case, a lot of people include this to their New Year’s resolution list but still fail to fulfill it. Quitting smoking is really hard because of the nicotine addiction that every smoker attaches into. If you are really dedicated to eliminate this vice, try to do it systematically by gradually reducing your intake of cigarette.

4.       Avoid Debts

It is always very tempting to buy a new gadget every time a new model comes out. But before you buy anything, make sure that you really need it and not just “want” it. This way of buying things is one of the main causes of why people are getting buried in debts. To avoid debts, try to eliminate impulsive buying and fads.

5.       Cut Back Costs, Save Money

Just like avoiding debts, cutting back on unnecessary costs can save you a lot of money. One example of wisely cutting back costs is to avoid buying unnecessary materials just because it is “trending” in the internet or you friend just told you so.

6.       Be More Organized. Prioritize.

This is a very critical item that many people include in their New Year’s resolution list but still fail to achieve. Being organized does not simply mean that you arrange your wardrobe or drawers properly. The main point here is becoming more organized in making decisions and prioritizing what is more important in your life. A lot of people easily get distracted by temptations of vices and unnecessary doings that can spark their downfall.

7.       Be a Volunteer Worker

This is one of most noble work in life. Many try to do this for different reasons – for fame, political intentions, or just simply pure kindness. Being a worker without expecting anything in return is a hard thing to do. Many people still include this on their lists but eventually fail to complete it. So, do not ever include this in your list if you are not fully dedicated and you don’t have the right resources.

8.       Travel to New Places

Travelling is fun that is why a lot of people include this in their list but due to personal and work limitations, many of them fail to fulfill it. What you can do to achieve this is to plan your budget and destinations carefully. You must know when the weather will be fine on a certain location and when is the best time to go.

Part of planning to travel to new places is properly setting your work schedule and obligations.

9.       Learn Something New

Learning something new from time to time is a very good way to enhance your knowledge and be smarter in life. The fact that you’ll get more inputs to your mind makes you more advantageous to others.

People add this to their New Year’s resolution list but still fail to achieve completely. One of the main reasons is because of improper time management to balance work, family, and leisure.

10.   Spend More Time with Your Family

This is the most important of all but many still fail to do. They always say that they’ll start to give more time to their children and wife but still gets eaten up by work and other distractions. Manage your time properly and learn to prioritize things.
