Make New Year’s Resolutions Stick
Illustrations by DDING
THE PROBLEM
Every January 1, you make resolutions for the new year. But then a week passes, you haven’t taken any action, and your goals seem like a distant memory!
THE HACK
Step One:
Set a clear goal. Choose a resolution you’re excited about and can visualize yourself accomplishing this year. Then break it down into bite-sized steps.
Step Two:
Make yourself accountable. Ask a friend or family member to check in with you once a month, or track your progress in a journal.
Step Three: Enjoy the Journey:
Don’t wait until the year’s end to feel proud. Give yourself small rewards along the way to celebrate your progress.
