It’s time for New Years resolutions again. And in a month, it’s time for those resolutions to be forgotten again. As twentysomethings, our generation is more concerned with adventures, living life to the fullest, doing what we want when we want, being independent, not being afraid of new things, and having big dreams. We don’t need resolutions, we need something to look forward to.
So, here’s a proposition: no more resolutions; make dreams happen instead.
Making resolutions are a thing of the past. You can make a resolution any time, and, honestly, summer is usually when people really kick it into high gear for the health resolutions anyway. You don’t plan for swimsuit season until it is swimsuit season. So instead, set new dreams for the year. A bucket list of sorts. Don’t worry about changing something about yourself, but rather, make additions to your life. We stay young until we are no more.
Here are some ideas for you, twentysomethings out there.
1. Plan some travel time
2. Try something you always wanted to [sky diving, hot air balloon rides, trying out a new sport, trying a new talent/hobby, etc.]
3. Make new friends
4. Take a chance with your career
5. Rewrite your story
6. Raise your standards [ with relationships, careers, expectations]
7. Find a cause to support [ human rights, environmentalism, disease awareness, etc.]
So, find some thing that will satisfy one – or many – of your dreams. This is the year for dreams to come true and for happiness to win. This is the year to do something exciting, do something memorable, do something to better you.
Happy {almost} 2016
