How Can I Stay Motivated With My New Year Resolutions?
New Year resolution is something every one of us takes or has. We set new resolutions and get all excited towards the starting of the new year. Nonetheless, these resolutions dissolve or go oblivious by a month or so.
Why is that ?
There is lack of motivation and at times there is no clarity as to why one is setting resolutions. Some have the herd mentality seeing fellow peers setting resolutions each one would start setting these and at times not even being clear if they wish or want these or even work towards achieving them.
Is it good to have New Year resolution?
It is good to have a New Years resolution it helps to understand and evaluate yourself. It is a good start to prioritize yourself and put things in order as per what needs importance. Making these resolutions and sticking by it will bring great change to you. Than for those who are unsure and don’t make any resolutions.
