7 New Years Resolutions For 2017

A few resolutions in case you don't have one

7 New Years Resolutions For 2017

Christmas is about to pass which only means one thing… NEW YEARS. Along with new years comes, new years resolutions. Everyone should try to make at least one and fulfill it. If you don’t have one, below is a list of a few that I think can work for everyone.

Meet at least 3 new people every month

To some people, I know it seems scary to meet new people. Trust me, I feel the same sometimes. It’s good to be introduced to new people because you never know, you could meet your best friend or possibly your husband/wife..

Have a healthier Living Style

This is a great one because everyone should have a healthy living style. That doesn’t necessarily mean to lose weight; it just means to stay active and healthy. If you feel the need to lose some weight than make going to the gym at least twice a week one of your top priorities as well as having a lean diet with some cheat days.

Learn a new language

Learning a new language can be fun, especially when you do it because you want to and not because you have to. It definitely can be challenging, but if you love the language as well as the challenge, it’ll be fun!

Pick up a new hobby

It’s always fun to try something new whether it’s playing a new sport, joining a club, playing an instrument, etc. It’ll spice things up in your life and who knows you may end up loving it!

Give up a bad habit

I know it will be difficult, but lets face it you’ll be better off if you give it up. From something as small as biting your nails to something as a big as smoking, everyone has at least one bad habit. Make this new year count by giving up that habit.

Spend more time with family

This may seem like a no brainer, but with the advances in technology, everyone pays more attention to their phones and less to each other. Putting down the phone and spending quality time with your family is probably one of the best resolutions because you never know what may happen in a blink of an eye. So make each and every second count with your loved ones.

Have less stress than 2016

Stress is a leech that eats away at people nonstop. Try making 2017 a little less stressful by planning ahead, not procrastinating and letting go of unnecessary stress. Life is short, so live it stress free.

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.

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.
