All kidding aside
Hopefully, you had a good laugh at the funny New Year’s resolutions.
However, in all seriousness, self-growth and being a better person and parent are all noble endeavors that should get our attention.
So, is there a better way?
The problem with most resolutions is they are big and often vague.
Let’s take the “I want to lose 100 pounds this year.”
Your brain hears this and panics.
Negative thoughts like it will take forever to lose the weight, or it will be too hard, make their way into your mind.
Try this instead.
Set that as your goal, but start much smaller and work on consistency.
For the first week of January, eat like you normally do, but commit to tracking everything in a fitness app.
In the second week, continue with the tracking, but cut down the number of carbs you ate in the first week by 10 grams.
This will help you make small healthier choices, which sounds easy enough.
The next week, cut them by 10 more grams until you get to what you think the goal should be for your weight loss.
The week after, increase your water intake by 8 ounces.
Breaking your goal (whatever it is) down into smaller, more manageable pieces will help you build momentum and stick with it.
You can join the gym in February when you feel good from losing a few pounds and have implemented small changes.
You can do something like this for whatever your goal is.
There will be setbacks, but just know with consistency, planning, and perseverance, you can actually make your resolutions stick!
Good luck, and may you have the best year yet!
