Take Big Steps To Achieve New Year Resolutions

We take up resolutions as the New Year begins and mostly end up not fulfilling it,this New Year experts suggest that we take big steps to achieve our resolutions.

Every January 1, most of the people take up resolutions in an effort to make their lives better and healthier which is usually, abandoned either right in the beginning of the year or after sometime, without achieving their resolutions.

As //New Year’s approaches, experts will advise people to focus on taking baby steps toward reaching their goals. Chris Wharton, an associate professor in the Arizona State University College of Health Solutions, believes baby steps aren’t enough.

This New Year Start Developing a Healthy Lifestyle
Every New Year, one of the most common resolutions that people make is that to lead a healthy lifestyle, but people give up easily as it is quite difficult.

‘Wharton remarks that if we just make some change it is not gonna affect the lives of many people in world and hence we need ro make sure that we make some major changes in our way of life so that we achieve our resolutions.’

“The problem is, if we live in a world of excess, changing one small thing at a time will accomplish next to nothing for many people,” he said. “Why? Because the world around us and our lifestyles will still be built to support the behaviors we want to change, not the new behaviors we’re trying to establish.”

Americans face big challenges when it comes to health and spending, he said, they:

Spend more time in their cars than they do outside
Watch 35 hours of television per week
Spend more money on eating out than on groceries
Waste 1/3 of food produced in the U.S.
Have less than $1,000 in retirement savings, are indebted, and would struggle if faced with a $500 emergency

Wharton’s solution: Don’t change just one thing at a time. Instead, change everything, all at once.

Make Some Healthy Skincare Resolutions for the New Year
Suruchi Puri, Consultant Dermatologist and Director at Medi Makeovers, suggests some of the skin care resolutions which are a must.

“This seems counter-intuitive, and hard,” he said. “But, recent research has shown that we’re more adaptable to change, even dramatic change, than we give ourselves credit for. It’s possible to make major changes in our behaviors, including key behaviors like screen time, transportation, eating habits, physical activity and spending that can work together to help changes stick.”
