Yes to 2023, No to New Year Resolutions

Over the years, I've picked up a few tips on making resolutions for the new year. I've discovered that relying solely on New Year's resolutions can be impractical and even harmful to our long-term success, even though it's normal to want to set objectives and make positive changes in the new year.

One problem with New Year's resolutions is that they frequently call for overnight changes to our routines and conduct. It can be challenging to maintain a sudden change of this magnitude, and it's typical for people to lose interest and abandon their resolutions after a few weeks or months.

Another issue with New Year's resolutions is that they frequently center on transient objectives like shedding pounds or saving money. While they are worthwhile endeavors, they are often superficial short-term objectives that fail to genuinely excite and encourage us over the long haul.


What would be a better option than making New Year's resolutions? Try making more manageable, smaller goals that can be accomplished over time rather than big, all-or-nothing ones. Instead of attempting to completely change your life all at once, this strategy enables you to go forward gradually.

Additionally, attempt to develop goals that are relevant and gratifying to you individually rather than concentrating on external goals. When times are bad, this can keep you focused and motivated.

Finally, feel free to seek out assistance and support. A support system can help you reach your goals, whether by joining a support group or working with a coach or mentor.

So, as you embark on this new year, remember that lasting change doesn't happen overnight. Instead, focus on setting
