It's official: we are one week into 2016. New Year's Resolutions are still going strong and gym memberships have yet to be canceled. But for many, the idea of going on morning jogs, starting a juice cleanse and opening that savings account are just too much to handle. Believe you know what? That is totally okay. Here are a few simple ways we can make sure we get the best out of 2016 without a resolution getting in your way.

1. Stay Positive: No one accomplishes anything with a negative attitude.

2. Eat: Breakfast is key. But pizza is also necessary and you deserve to indulge.

3. Read More Books: Become cultured. Read novels so you can have stories to tell.

4. Smile More: It's a fact: smiling makes everything better.

5. Laugh At Yourself: It's the only way you'll learn from your mistakes.

6. Stay Focused: Set goals and stop at nothing to achieve them.

7. Forgive And Forget: Don't hold grudges...they're heavy.

8. Get More Sleep: Take care of yourself. Those bags under your eyes are not designer.

9. Stay Up Late: Lets be real; the best memories happen after midnight.

10. Be Adventurous: Take chances. Regrets are hard things to live with.

11. Worry Less: Anxiety sucks. Be a warrior not a worrier.

12. Love Recklessly: The heart wants what the heart wants.

13. Cry More: Don't bottle up emotions. It's okay if you're an ugly crier.

14. Trust Yourself: Your first instinct is always correct.

15. Be Grateful: Wake up every morning thankful for the air in your lungs and the heartbeat in your chest.

16. Enjoy Every Second: We've got one life to live, so lets make the best of each year we are given.

Cheers to a happy, healthy and successful new year.
