New Year's resolution.
 
Do you do this and if you do, what did you pick?

I am not into this, I love working out, dancing and trying something new to do. Some of my friends do this every year.

Re: New Year's resolution.
 
Even though I published an article on it on TeenHelp many years ago, I no longer believe in making new year resolutions. It's never works and it always a set-up for failure. In the past, when I've failed on new year resolution(s), I always felt like crap about it. Instead, I decide on trying or learning new things. I am constantly learning, even if I'm not actively sitting in a university classroom; so not accomplishing at least one new topic a year isn't really possible. I have hopes for things to accomplish over the course of the year, and it might happen next year instead.

But no, I don't make new year resolutions and I haven't in at least five or six years.

I don't make New Year resolutions. In the past I tried doing it, but always set myself unrealistic goals and failed to meet them, which resulted only in frustration. So I stopped doing that altogether, I prefer to try to set myself realistic goals throughout the whole year.

I don’t make resolutions because I feel like you have to truly be ready to make a behavior change and it being the first of the year isn’t always a good enough reason.

Re: New Year's resolution.
 
I wonder if anyone on teenhelp does this. :)

I don't make resolutions in the new year, but I do make goals throughout the year. I am currently working on self-care which seems broad - but I think in the routine sense. I am hoping to fix my sleep schedule and push myself to do things I struggle with in a routine.

Also to help honor my inner child.

I don't really make New Year Resolutions either. I generally have a list of things that I would like to do by a certain time than by the end of the year.

I never usually set them because I'm lazy at making things happen :bleh:

But, this year my friends and I wrote down achievable goals rather then resolutions, so I wrote:
- I want to read more books
- I want to learn a new skill (e.g. how to put up a shelf)
- I want to be more active

As I stated on other sites I am on...

I decided not to do any this year. I don't usually like doing them personally at all as I know I'll never stick to the resolution.
