How to Stick to New Year Resolutions
By Saajid Alad |
New year, same old trouble committing to resolutions. We’re halfway through the decade, so there’s still time to make those changes that first slipped through the cracks in lockdown all the way back in 2020 and have continued to falter year on year as the weeks pass! But let’s make 2025 different.
Sticking to resolutions can be difficult, but there are ways to encourage yourself to see them through and truly enjoy the rewards by the end of the year! So, if you’re wondering how to keep a New Year’s resolution, keep reading our Diso guide to find out our handy tips and tricks.
Set Specific and Achievable Goals
Success is relative to you, and progress takes time! So, there’s no need to set ridiculously difficult goals that you know you’ll struggle to achieve from the get-go. Don’t set yourself up for failure! Instead, set specific, measurable goals that are actually realistic.
Let’s say you’re looking to run a certain number of kilometres per week. You can always extend your goal as the months pass, but committing to and achieving your initial goal will help motivate you to do so!
Take Note of Your Progress
Keep track of your progress and celebrate your small wins along the way! Whether that includes logging how many pages you read each night or how many lbs you shift on a weekly basis, making a note of your progress can be another fantastic motivator for the future.
Partner Up
Whether you view them as friendly competition or your own personal cheerleader, working on a resolution alongside a group of friends or loved ones is a great way to stick to them. By sharing and receiving updates, you’ll feel far more encouraged to commit.
Why not try setting a cumulative goal? With your partner or group, you could set a collective target like ‘run x amount of kilometres per month’ or ‘read x amount of books per year’ to give you a real sense of responsibility to achieve your team’s goals and not let the side down.
Make Healthy Habits
A bunch of small changes can come together to make a huge difference. So, if you’re setting yourself quite a broad resolution that is hard to track, you may want to make several minor lifestyle changes to reach your goal over time.
For example, imagine your resolution is to improve the appearance of your skin. Your changes here could include dietary adjustments and implementing a skincare routine before bed. You could even commit to taking wellness vitamins like Diso’s collagen supplements to see even better results!
Stay Energised
Finding motivation in the dreary January weather is tough. But it’s important to stay energised during that post-Christmas slump and see your resolutions through. Start by keeping on top of your sleep. Getting your recommended 7-9 hours is integral to getting anything done after working hours during the winter.
If you’re tired of counting sheep to no avail, you may benefit from our sleep supplements. Try our valerian for sleep to relax into a restful slumber every night. Or if you just need a little kick of energy to complete that 5k, you’ll enjoy our Diso Energy supplements with Vitamin E!
