It is officially Sweet 2016! This New Years make sure you stick to your New Years Resolutions. You'll end your year feeling like a better, more active version of yourself!
1. Meet new people.
Never stop trying to make new friends, as much as you love your current BFFs, you never know when a new friendship could arise unless you put yourself out there. So this year try talking talk more, laughing more, and most importantly loving more.
2. Speak your mind.
I am one of those people who is brutally honest to most people, but sometimes it’s the people I care most about that are the most difficult to speak my mind to. There is always a nice way to put things, so next time you’re scared of speaking your mind remember that communication is key in any type of relationship.
3. Drink more water.
We all know that drinking water is an important part of being healthy, make a pact to yourself to drink at least four 16 oz. waters bottles each day!
4. Keep a journal.
Write down all your thoughts and memories in a journal this year, you are only in college once think about how hilarious it will be to read your college journal 5 years later.
5. Live a healthier lifestyle.
Don’t stay focused on losing a set amount of weight, this year focus on making healthier choices. That means eating a more balanced diet and becoming more active!
6. Read a book or two.
People who read books are known to keep their brain sharper, this year make sure to read a few books, you might be surprised how much you enjoy it.
7. Go to the library 3 times a week.
The library always seems like the absolute worst idea, but when you think about how much more your can get done their rather then in your noisy apartment with 3 other roommates, the library starts to sound pretty nice.
8. Invest in some comfy pajamas.
I recently invested in a pair of Calvin Klein PJ’s and it has been a life changing experience. Trust me, I was always the girl who slept in an oversized t-shirt, but after sleeping in these pajamas I will never go back.
9. Learn a new recipe each week.
Living in an apartment on my own for the first time I had to learn how to cook, but I have to say that I am seriously tired of chicken and pasta. So this year try to learn a easy new recipe each week to switch up your dinners.
10. Stop the FOMO!
Don’t be afraid to stay in every once in a while, I understand FOMO is a real thing but when you wake up the next morning you will appreciate the extra needed sleep.
11. Find a physical activity you enjoy!
Who actually enjoys going to the gym? This year find a physical activity you enjoy doing that can substitute going to the gym.
12. Start a good skincare regiment.
Forgetting to wash your face after a night out is super easy, but getting in a good skincare regiment will help you have clearer softer skin.
13. Spend more time with your family.
Family is the most important people in your life, make a point to spend more time with them this year and don’t take them for granted.
14. Spend less time on social media.
Between Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter you are constantly refreshing each of your feeds. Imagine what could happen if instead of looking down at your phone, you looked up?
15. Stick to your resolutions!
Try and stick to your resolutions this year, each of them will affect your life in a positive way!
