This year is different for me since I did manage to achieve at least one of the goals that I had last year and saw how rewarding it was. That goal was to get better grades prior to transferring to a university. Not only did I make it into the Dean's List during my last semester at community college, but I also got into every university I applied to!
However, enough about me. Here are some tips to help you all achieve your new year's resolutions:
1. Don't stop if you fail at your resolution(s) early on
Even though you might've done poorly in trying to complete your resolution, it should not mean you should fully end it! Keep going fam, don't let it discourage you from getting to endpoint!
2. Set something REASONABLE
I've set some unreasonable goals in the past which haven't helped me fully complete a goal. Set something you KNOW you can do. Nothing is truly impossible if you REALLY set your mind to it but you gotta be realistic and see if it is achievable within your resources and overall reason.
3. Don't have too many goals
It is tempting AF to do so because you want to 'glo up' your life fully within the span of ONE YEAR but sis, be nice to yourself. Set a good amount of resolutions that are not too time-consuming and don't force you too much out of your comfort zone. You have to balance everything in your life including the desire to complete these goals, give yourself something reasonable to complete! Remember that, good things take time. So take it step-by-step each day!
4. If you complete a goal, treat yourself!
Rewarding yourself is important but don't indulge too much in whatever you treat yourself with! You have to make sure you don't make it a habit either. Completing a goal should be a reward enough.
6. You don't need other's validation to complete your goals
It's your life so it does not matter what other's think about your goals. If you need support to finish your goal, you should be your own fan to support you fully. You got this!!
6. There's always next year...
Although I advise this the least, you should try again next year. BUT that's if you fail miserably and lose the motivation completely to keep going. Good luck with your 2019 goals!
1. July 10th: Teddy Bear Picnic Day
The name of the holiday makes it pretty obvious how you're supposed to celebrate. There isn't a lot of information on this official holiday's origins, but there's speculation that it has to do with a TV show from the 1950s called "Teddy Bears' Picnic".
2. July 13th: Embrace Your Geekness Day
You can thank the good folks at Wellcat Holidays for this one! While this is something you should be doing every day (in my humble opinion), July 13th is the day to celebrate it to the max! Dress up like a Stormtrooper, tell everyone to live long and prosper, or let the world know that traveling through space and time is your shtick. Fly your geek flag with pride and remind everyone that you solemnly swear that you are up to no good.
3. July 13th: National French Fry Day
Maybe "embracing geekness" isn't your thing, but you know what probably is? French fries. Who doesn't love french fries? According to holidaysinsights.com, this holiday came to fruition around the early 2000s. Sure, it's not something that's widely recognized, but any day that gives you a reason to eat something delicious is something worth celebrating.
4. July 20th: Moon Day
Moon Day is meant to honor the day that man first stepped on the moon in 1969. Make this a day that you party under the light of the silvery moon! Unless, of course, you're behind the theory that the U.S. faked the moon landing. In which case, give a round of applause for great cinematography.
5. July 24th: National Tequila Day
This one is like National French Fry Day–tt's not officially recognized, but it's well-known. Grab a couple of friends and feel less guilty about taking shots one after the other in the spirit of celebration.
6. July 31st: National Mutt Day
Dogs deserve love every day, but this day is one that mutts can shine. If you have a mutt for a pup or know somebody with one, make sure to give them some extra love today!
