1. Binge watch an entire series on Netflix.

We’ve all done it before, so there’s no real challenge there! Easy!

2. Eat at least one salad a month.

And then you can eat an entire pizza pie all to yourself the other 30 days!

3. Workout.

Even if it’s running up one flight of stairs because you forgot your car keys! Still counts!

4. Keep at least one friend for the year.

You and I both know it’s easy to lose touch with friends, so just keep that one!!!!

5. Aim to have triple digits in your bank account by the end of the year.

Turn that $10 bank account balance into $100!!!

6. Only drink 2 nights a week instead of 4.

Unless you don’t want to sacrifice your booze, which is fine. I understand.

7. Read a book.

Just one book the whole year. You got this.

8. Listen to a new artist on Spotify.

Turn off your Pop Hits playlist and listen to some indie songs. Get crazy.

9. Re-watch your favorite late 90’s, early 2000’s chick flick.

Because you’ve been meaning to, but you needed a valid excuse to do so.

10. Hope for a better year than 2016.

2016 took away Prince, Alan Rickman, Carrie Fisher, George Michael, David Bowie, Harambe, and countless others. Don’t get me started on the clown thing or the Mannequin challenge either.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
