Tuesday Tip: Sticking To Your Resolutions


It is no secret that January 1st is the day to begin a resolution. A new year, a new you, a new set of goals. But come the third or fourth week of January, we find that we've slipped off the "New Year's Resolutions" train. A mere 8% of people actually stick out and achieve their resolutions - and 2016 is the year we're aiming to do that!

We rounded up our favorite tips for sticking out our resolutions for the duration of 2016; check it out!

1. Pose it as a question to yourself

Studies prove that you are more likely to stick to your resolutions if you're asking yourself a question and giving a definitive "yes". For example, "Will I work out more?" "Yes"


2. Make only a few resolutions

Consider picking only a few options as opposed to many. It is far easier to maintain three goals as opposed to ten!


3. Track your progress

By monitoring your own progress, you increase the likelihood of maintaining your resolution and turning it into a habit!


What are your resolution tracking tips? This is the year we are actually going to stick with our resolutions hoping to turn our resolutions into habits to make 2016 the best year yet!
