It’s that time of the year again, when people look forward to the new year, a new beginning, a clean fresh start. Time for New Year’s resolutions like telling yourself that this is the year you’ll finally dedicate yourself to being fit or that you’ll start eating healthy and might as well take up meditating while you’re at it. There’s a reason why these types of resolutions are notoriously difficult to follow through on. Not only are they ambitious, but they’re also incredibly vague. They don’t include the steps to make them actionable. It’s hard to tell whether we’ve achieved these resolutions or not. So here are our lofty yet ambiguous resolutions for 2020 and how we are making them more effective for ourselves.
