Resolutions

Since it is New Year’s Eve it’s time to create or set your resolutions for the coming year. That is for those of you that do this once a year. What would you like to see better or different in your life next year? How hard are you willing to work to make it happen. Remember that for every positive change that you would like to see happen a corresponding negative habit must be let go. As you can’t set a goal to read 30 books a year if you are still watching 3 hours a tv a night.

The most common New Year’s resolutions are to workout more, lose weight and make more money. If these are on your list, then the best approach is to start small and improve it over time. For example start with 10 min online yoga or pilates class and work up to 45 min classes. As for your healthy eating, one meal at a time is the best approach. Consider trying the Noom app as it will help with the mindset around heathy eating.

Lastly and most importantly to many people is making more money. Do you need to change careers? Work smarter or more hours? Start a side hustle or your own business. Whatever it is just get started and do something. The then trick it to stay consistent, do a little bit every day and never never never give up. A study in 2018 found that only 4% of people stuck to their goals that they have set. Be one of those people.

“Hope smiles from the threshold of the year to come, whispering ‘it will be happier’…” Alfred Lord Tennyson

Today I am thankful for my Friday calls with my family, my daily french lessons on Duolingo and a quiet evening at home with the kids.

I look forward to hearing from you in regard to your mortgage needs.
