Five Things You Need to Add to Your 2018 New Year’s Resolution

holidays, New Years

Everyone secretly thinks in their head “New Year, New Me.” Well that’s fantastic, I’m so happy for you. But what are you actually changing? Here’s FIVE great things to add to your list. They’ll truly make you, a new you:

A Workout Routine

  • Whether you like it or not, it’s a proven, scientific fact, that if your body isn’t healthy… you die. Sorry to break it to you! Well, lets try working out.
  • I know an amazing girl who’ll train you into a war fighting BEAST! Okay that’s a bit exaggerative. However, she’s got some damn good workout plans and knows what she’s doing. Check her out >> Katelyn Long.
  • Whether or not you like the idea of someone training you, maybe start with the gym? Try a new gym membership at your local fitness facility.

A Diet?… Or at least a Meal Plan

  • May I possibly recommend my personal FAVORITE: BeachBodyOnDemand.
  • Challenge yourself to starting a simple Four week plan of meal prepping. You can do it! It’s barely a month.
  • Changing your body starts in the Kitchen, not the gym.

Spoil Yourself

  • Whether it’s treating yourself to a new magazine membership, a spa day every couple weeks, or even just a couple of nights on Netflix, your body needs time to relax.
  • My favorite thing to do is make a cup of coffee and sit under the cool sheets watching whatever my current favorite show is on Netflix.
  • Give yourself time to cool off from the week. Treat yourself to relaxation every once in awhile. This should be at the TOP of your New Year’s Resolution!

A BRAND NEW… Pair of Shoes?

  • A new pair of shoes will LITERALLY have you walking into 2018 with confidence.
  • I can’t remember the last time I bought a good pair of shoes and didn’t think “Wow, I seriously can’t wait to wear these.” Not only will they boost your confidence, but it’s been proven, that when you look good, you’ll feel good.
  • Go for something as simple as a cute pair of sandals you’ll be excited to wear in the summer, or a super nice pair of running shoes (like I just got!), that you’ll be stoked to wear on the track! Or maybe it’s those leather boots you’ve always wanted… go get em. Spoil yourself. You’ll be glad you did.

Lastly, Try Something New

  • Get outside of your comfort zone. The thing I did? I started a blog! And I dang right already love doing it.
  • I highly suggest doing something BIG and making it GREAT. You can’t go wrong with trying.
