1. Be Realistic about Your Goals

Let’s start at the beginning – set yourself realistic goals you know you can achieve. Walk before you can run, otherwise, you’ll fail and beat yourself up about it! That's one of the best ways to stick to your New Year's resolutions.

2. Don’t Give up after One Mistake

Mistakes happen – you need to accept that. We’re all busy humans. We have lives, relationships, jobs and other commitments. It’s understandable that you’ll miss one gym session or whatever your resolution is. Don’t give up after one mistake!

3. Share Our Journey on Social Media

OK, you probably don’t want to be that person. Maybe don’t post a gym selfie at 7 am everyday unless you want to annoy all your friends. But sharing your goals may help you stick to them. At least, you’ll be too embarrassed to just give up.

4. Set Small Milestones

Within one huge goal, you can set yourself smaller millstones, and treat yourself after reaching them. It’s easier to stay motivated if a goal is in sight!

Embrace the vibrant colors and cozy vibes of the upcoming season with your loved ones. Planning for some memorable fall family photos is a unique way to capture the warmth and love amidst the breathtaking autumnal hues. Trust me, these keepsakes would be beyond beautiful.

5. Reward Yourself Often

You’re doing something new. You’ve made a commitment to better yourself and that’s awesome. Reward yourself often. Even if you fail and get back up, treat yourself. Some new clothes, a lazy day or even a bubble bath are great choices. Small things can really make a journey better.

6. Find Someone to Workout with

Like with social media, sharing a journey can make it easier. Perhaps find a friend to run or diet with, or to take a new class with. You’ll motivate each other to keep going!

7. Just Keep at It

It’s easier said than done, but don’t give up. If you’ve made a commitment to go to the gym, learn something new or even just visit family more, keep at it. Repeating a behaviour becomes a habit, and once something is a habit, it’s harder to break!

8. Don’t Bother with New Year’s Resolutions

Or perhaps it’s time to recognise that we don’t need a new year to reinvent yourself. Set yourself a monthly, weekly or even daily goal. You are in control of your own life. You can reinvent yourself whenever you want.
