Whether it's losing weight, kicking an unhealthy habit, improving your financial situation or enhancing your appearance in some capacity... most of us have a list in our heads of things we'd like to accomplish at some point in 2015.
With that being said, here are 4 ways (from our Xtreme Green Grass Xperts) to help YOU get a fabulous fresh start in the New Year:
1. Formulate new habits and adhere to them diligently.
Many experts believe new habits or healthier behaviors can be created successfully in as little as 21 days. That's less than a month to make new and effective changes in your lifestyle. If you plan to stop smoking, take it one day at a time for 3 weeks, which will soon turn into a month, 6 weeks, 2 months and so on. If you plan to lose weight, commit to eating better, sign up for a medical weight loss program and start incorporating exercise into your routine little by little. These baby steps, over time (and with a little patience) will produce big results, no matter what your resolution is for 2015!
2. Put together an all-star team as your support system.
There's safety in numbers for a reason, which is this: More people who stick together for the sake of a common interest will generally produce a more positive outcome. This is why professional sports teams, support groups like Alcoholics Anonymous and even church-associated organizations are so successful... Each person involved is in it for a benefit, so together everyone wins. Use this same philosophy to build an all-star team to support your resolutions. Find a workout buddy. Invest in a life coach. Seek financial advice from your closest neighbors & friends who are also looking to manage their money better. Before you know it you'll be surrounded by others who share the same goals you have for this upcoming year!
3. Be realistic about the changes you hope to make this year.
Being on a mission to make significant improvements in your life can oftentimes instill a sense of impatience within us. Searching for a new job? It may take longer than a week to find one. Aiming to lose all that weight you gained from Halloween to New Year's Eve? You might want to give yourself a month to get a big head start on tipping the scales. Planning to save up a ton of money so you can book the vacation of your dreams this summer? It could take more than 90 days to get your funds together. Whichever changes you plan on incorporating into 2015, remember this: It won't be impossible, it will just take some time, a little effort and a lot of patience. Keep that thought in mind you'll be able to accomplish just about anything you put your mind to over the next 365 days!
4. Spruce up your surroundings.
Ever heard of that saying, "messy bed, messy head?" In simple terms, this translates into, whatever the conditions are in the environment you're immersed in, is the condition of your state of mind as well. So spruce things up a little by taking down your Christmas tree, putting away all your holiday decorations, rearranging the furniture and even tidying up the exteriors of your domain. Xtreme Green Grass lawn painting can give your outdoors a fresh, lush appearance quickly (and it's affordable too). A new look for the New Year has never been easier!
