I’m a sucker for a fresh start and the feeling of something new.
…A new week, a new day, a new year.
…A new pair of shoes, a new handbag, a new planner.
…A new haircut.
Something about it makes me think that what’s in the past is in the past, and anything that happens from here on out can only get better.
With a new year, many people make resolutions. But, statistics show many don’t follow through with them. And those that do only last a few weeks.
I tend to get overambitious at the beginning of the year and commit to a complete life shift, only to end up disappointed that I didn’t stick with anything at all.
So, for this year, I’m setting more attainable goals.
+ Get active at least 5 times a week. Whether it’s a Jazzercise class, working with a Beachbody program, or taking Elphie for a long walk.
+ Serve at church at least 3x per month, and join a small group. I won't go into too much yet about my spirituality, but I will tell you that it saved me from a great depression and has really changed my life.
+ Increase engagement and accountability both with my blog and my business. I have the world at my fingertips thanks to social media and technology, but alas I find excuses to not grasp it.
I’m on a big journey this year to transform my health and energy. So, I’m starting the year following the Whole30 meal guidelines.
Today marks Day 4, and although I can’t tell you it’s a walk in the park, it’s also not as bad as I expected. I’ll share a weekly update, as well as what I ate, with you all so you can follow along.
Did you guys set resolutions or goals for the year?
