I am totally 100% anti-resolutions.
The whole process, IMO, seems very counter-productive. The idea is to promote self-growth in the new year, but when you break that resolution (which you 100% will, sorry but true), you just end up feeling like a sad sack/failure at life. Where’s the growth in that?
The last resolution I actually ever made was to never make another resolution again, & it was the only one that ever stuck.
It’s not that I don’t have a lot of bad habits that need to be worked on (I drink way too much gingerale, watch an disgusting amount of horrendous reality TV, & have some minor OCD tendencies), but I just know that for me, the last thing I need is another list to hold me prisoner.
Instead I prefer to start off my year like I do my yoga class, with a good intention. This year, my intention was/is to simply focus fully on my own grass rather than worrying about everyone else’s (see above quote). Simple, realistic, & doable.
If you’ve already written our your long ass scroll of resolutions, I highly suggest you crumple it up (throw in the fire if you have one) & free yourself from that list stat! Start the year stress free & with good vibes.
