Should We Have Resolutions for the New Year?, by Giovanni Padin

Question: Should We Have Resolutions for the New Year?

Introduction 

It’s December so it’s almost the end of the year!!!

With the Christmas Holiday coming around, that also means that the next major Holiday (besides Christmas), New Years is on its way!!!

With the end of any year coming around, some people like to create things that are known as “New Years Resolutions.”

But what are these exactly???

New Years Resolutions are simply goals, or things that people want to accomplish before the New Year starts to settle upon us. People can have resolutions for various reasons. For example, they could be for personal reasons or just solely for the purpose of fun by finishing a goal before the New Year settles in!

A New Years Resolution can be something as simple as getting a task done, or they can be as complex as resolving previous conflicts or issues that a person may of had.

 

Approaching New Year’s Resolutions  

When setting a goal to accomplish for a New Year’s Resolution, it is important to think about how much time it will take to accomplish it. Various factors such as these will be important determining factors so you know your success at completing any resolutions that you may have. 

The amount of time that you have to complete your resolution is extremely important because it can determine your success in completing your resolution before the year ends.

It is important to consider the amount of time you have before the New Year ends because if there are only a few days left to complete your resolution, it would be best to complete other smaller ones you may have and save the bigger ones you may have for the future (or for a resolution for next year if you can!). This way, you can still complete some of your resolutions without stressing yourself out to much before the year comes to a close! 

You should also consider what it will take you to achieve that resolution. If it will take lots of tasks for you to complete the resolution, reconsider this immediately! Stressing yourself over something that can be done in the future is not worth the stress during this time of the year!!! 

Instead, you should prioritize having a fun and enjoyable time with your friends and family!

Realize there’s always January and February!

If you aren’t able to complete some of the resolutions you want to complete this year, don’t forget that there’s always time after the holidays! The months January and February are great times to get started on completing your New Years’ Resolutions since they are the months that lack the holidays that major amounts of people celebrate as compared to Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza that are around the time of New Years.

Don’t sweat it if you can’t complete every resolution that you may have right now! The early new year is still a great time of the year to catch up on these goals and other things that you may have in mind!

What are some of your New Years’ Resolutions?
