How to Keep Your New Year's Resolution?


It can be scary when it comes to making your New Year’s Resolution list especially when you aren’t able to keep them by February or even by the end of January.  However, its important to remember that the New Year isn’t meant to serve as a way to change your character.  It’s a time for you to reflect on the past year’s behavior and make some changes.  Setting small and attainable goals throughout the year instead of one long list can help you reach and keep your goals.

Start small- Make resolutions that you can keep.  If you cheat your resolution one day remember that there’s always tomorrow.

Change One Behavior at a Time- Unhealthy behaviors are developed over time thus replacing one unhealthy behavior with a healthy choice one at a time won’t overwhelm you.

Talk About It- Share your experience with your friends and family.  Even consider joining a support group to help you reach your goals.

Don’t Beat Yourself Up- Perfection is not attainable.  Minor missteps when trying to reach your goal are normal and OK.  Never give up when making a mistake- keep going.

Ask for Support and Help- Having the support of your friends and family can help you when you are trying to achieve your goal.  The people who care about you and want to see you succeed with help you throughout your way to achieve your goals.
