How You Can Get a Head Start on Your Resolutions

Get a Head Start on Your Resolutions

With the holiday season in full swing, there are a lot of people who are thinking about what types of New Year's resolutions they want to make this year. It is never too early to get started, and you might be wondering how you can get a head start on your New Year's resolutions as well. Take a look at a few important tips below and think about how you become a better version of yourself in 2023!



Identify Your Biggest Goals for the Next Year

First, you need to identify your biggest goals for the next year. If you are wondering where to begin, a few tips you should follow include:


  • Think about your New Year's resolutions last year. Which ones did you achieve? Which ones fell by the wayside?
  • Do you have any milestones that you didn’t quite reach this year? Why do you think you didn't quite make it there?
  • Do you have anything your friends and family members are talking with you about? Do you think these could be potential New Year's resolutions?


Answering these questions can give you a good starting place when you are trying to identify your goals for the next year.



Set Milestones You Can Reach

Next, you should set objective milestones for the coming year. It is important to make sure your milestones are objectively measurable. That way, you can hold yourself accountable.


For example, if your New Year's resolution is to lose weight, you might want to set milestones for yourself. For example, you might set a goal to lose ten pounds by April 1. Or you might set a goal to run a 5K by the end of the summer. If you make sure your goals are objective and measurable, you will have an easier time holding yourself accountable.


Plans in Advance

Write Down Your Plan in Advance

Finally, you should make sure you write down your plan in advance. If you want to lose weight as one of your New Year's resolutions, some of the steps you may want to mention include:


  • You want to remove all sugary beverages from your diet.
  • You want to exercise for at least 30 minutes per day, five days per week.
  • You will go to the gym three days per week with a friend or a family member.
  • You will eat salads at least five days per week.


These are important, objective, measurable components of a comprehensive plan that someone might follow in an effort to lose weight. If you want to eat a healthier diet, McCray’s Tavern can help you!
