It’s amazing to think that another year has come and gone. How did your New Year’s resolutions fare this year? Well, next year, you can plan for success. Here are some New Year’s resolutions ideas that can help you become a better you.

• Get Up Earlier
  For the morning people, this need not apply. But for us that dread the alarm and hit snooze repeatedly, this can help change your daily habit. You can use that extra time for numerous things, such as preparing breakfast, exercise, or meditation. Regardless of what you do with the extra time, you will find that it helps to increase your productivity. For the night owls, you may want to ease into it by getting up 10 minutes earlier per day until you’ve reached your goal.
• Master Something
  In 2019, pick one thing you have always wanted to be good at and hone your craft. Very few of us have mastered one this specifically because we have various interests and our time is spread too thin. From learning to play an instrument to writing a book to improving your cooking skills, focus on one for better results.
• Meditate
  Taking some time to meditate daily is known to help reduce stress, improve sleep, and promote better emotional health, among other benefits. Much like waking up earlier, meditation can and should become a habit. There are apps to help keep you on target, and you can do as little as 10 minutes a day or more if you have the time to spare.
• Give More
  While this doesn’t necessarily mean financially, giving can prove more beneficial than receiving. In general, helping others and being generous increases happiness. Find some time and/or resources that you can donate (ex. donating to a food drive, volunteering for charity work) and do it.
• Set Your Intention
  What do you want to accomplish in 2019? Sometimes simply putting what you want into the universe can help your goals come to fruition. Think of it as planting a seed. By setting your intention for the year, it is there as a reminder for you to continue to work at it daily.
