Life is full of
traditions, many handed down through the years, and some newly created between
family and friends. Either way, traditions are part of the colourful
fabric that intertwine our lives and hold us together; transcending time and
distance. One common tradition many people have is to make New Year’s
resolutions – promises of actions to make ourselves better, happier and
healthier. They may be a commitment to keep in touch, quit bad habits, and
pursue the good things in life. Making New Year’s resolutions is easy and
can be quite fun. The hard part is putting those resolutions into action and
maintaining the mom entum to keep
those promises throughout the year.
This year, try
something different. When making your list of resolutions, think of ways
to involve family and friends as support. Whether you live near or far,
deciding to join forces and make New Year’s resolutions together, increases the
odds that you stay true to your goals. Providing accountability for each
other, not only presents valuable reinforcement, but also offers the
opportunity of staying in touch on a regular basis throughout the year.
By helping each other, you gain a greater sense of purpose, which can be
very meaningful in the life of a loved one or friend.
Whether you want
to lose weight or accomplish another goal, there is no single solution that
works for everyone. The key to
maintaining your goals is to try new techniques and find ways to stay
motivated.
