Have you ever wandered blindly into a new year wondering what you can do to change yourself? Here are seven of the best ideas you can put as your resolution this year! It's never too late to begin!
1. Be more fit.
The #1 Resolution that everyone claims to have is to either lose weight or work out more. Sure, this is a great resolution to have - but you shouldn't focus on that one in particular if there are other things that you want to achieve!
2. Read more books.
Whether you're an avid reader or not, studies have shown that if you read more books that your vocabulary skills increase as the year passes. Increasing the amount of reading that you do every year could potentially increase your vocabulary enough that you can pass that exam that you've been struggling to comprehend.
3. Learn a new language.
Of course, you can't learn an ENTIRE language in one year unless you move to a new area where one is spoken. Even then, it would be difficult to cram the entire language into your mental dictionary. However, beginning to study a new language can also help your vocabulary increase. Who knew?
4. Travel to new places.
I know this one is definitely on MY list of Resolutions. Traveling to new places can help you understand your surroundings better, and you could possibly meet somebody new. A lover, perhaps?
5. Cook more often.
A lot of people don't think about this one, but cooking is found to be relaxing to most people. If you don't enjoy this activity, then this one definitely isn't the Resolution for you.
6. Go shopping less.
If you begin to spend less money and store more of it away, it's possible that you could have enough money to go on that trip you've wanted to go on for the past few years.
7. Take up a new hobby.
Whether it's fishing, crocheting, knitting, singing, or writing - there's a hobby out there for you! Take a few minutes out of your day to find something relaxing and calming that you can do in order to take more stress out of your day. This is one you definitely won't regret.
Whether you decide to look into following any of these Resolutions or come up with your own, it's always a good idea to start thinking about your options before the end of January. Who knows, maybe you'll find a Resolution that fits you in late-December and still complete it before 2020!
