We are so close to a new year, so close to making it through another year of bizarre and truly dishonoring events that could only happen in the U.S. It is truly an honor, really. With a new year, comes a new resolution of course.

I, for one, never lag on this tradition. In reality that is all it really is: a tradition. To break it would be a dishonor on yourself, your cow, and your whole family (shout out to Mushu for the wise words).

We have your typical and common "I am going to give up all my bad habits this new year and get rich" resolution from your typical American. The "I am going to go vegan" resolution, that we all know is going to go to crap within the first six hours of making it.

Lastly, my personal favorite, the "I am going to work out all year round and get hot" resolution, probably starting after the immense amount of alcohol and food that is usually consumed on the day of December 31st.

Of course, us Americans are not limited to just these few resolutions. I mentioned these resolutions because statistically speaking they are the most common, and likely to be for many more years to come. We are all unique, individual beings from different walks of life and have our own unique thoughts.

A resolution is meaningful to some and complete poop to others. The odds of a resolution being kept for an entire year is slim, so making them is pretty silly.

Yet, I cannot wait to make mine the day of. I am your typical basic gal, and my resolution is proof. My resolution this year is Improvement in every aspect of my life. By that I mean specifically to Improve my diet, I plan to go organic and cut out sugary crap like donuts and plain bagels. I am also referring to improve my communication, workflow, motivation, and commitment. With this improvement, I really will be a new me.

Hopefully, a better version of my already awesome self!

I truly believe New Year Resolutions are good for the soul and should be considered to be made by everyone at least once in their life. They are fun to make and really remind you of what areas in your life you are unsatisfied with and what needs more attention.

Plus, those first few months of pursuing that resolution is super thrilling and you literally feel like a completely new version of yourself.

Literally, a new you is an appropriate saying when you commit to your resolution! Therefore, with that being said (in my head, lol that rhymed) I encourage everyone to make a resolution and stick to it for as long as you can, even if it is forgotten within the first two weeks of drunkenly making it.

Who knows, you might like this "new you" so much you might keep them around.
