How To Keep Your New Years Resolutions

San Francisco Chiropractor Comments:

Well...it's 2010 and many of us (including me) have made our New Years Resolutions...which are often times hard to keep. But...according to the Happiness Project, there is a right way to make New Years Resolutions that will stick. Check-out this article entitled:

Five Tips for Planning Effective New Year’s Resolutions

 

Here is an excerpt:

Forty-four percent of Americans make New Year’s resolutions, and I know I always do. I’m more inclined to make resolutions than ever, in fact, because if my happiness project has convinced me of anything, it has convinced me that resolutions – made right – can make a huge difference in boosting happiness.

So how do you resolve well? This is trickier than it sounds. Here are some tips for making your resolutions as effective as possible. Remember, right now, you’re in the planning stage. Don’t feel like you have to do anything yet! Just start thinking about what would make 2010 a happier year.

1. Ask: “What would make me happier?” It might be having more of something good – more fun with friends, more time for a hobby. It might be less of something bad – less yelling at your kids, less nagging of your spouse. It might be fixing something that doesn’t feel right – more time spent volunteering, more time doing something to make someone else happier.

Check the full article, it's good stuff...and Happy New Year!
