New Year’s Resolutions, Good or Bad?
Every year human beings make "resolutions" for the new year, things that they might want to change or do better in the upcoming year. What a fun idea, set a goal to achieve in the new year.
While I think that "resolutions" are fun, why do we need to wait?
I'll use myself as an example. A few years ago I realized I needed to lose weight. I knew it was important for my health. What I didn't do was wait to start losing the weight. I started immediately and dropped nearly a hundred pounds.
Other resolutions people often set are quitting smoking, working out, being more patient and the list goes on. Again, if a "resolution" is on your mind and it can better your physical health, mental health or make you a better person, why wait?
Resolutions are a great idea, start them now, don't procrastinate. Maybe your "resolution" could be to not procrastinate.
