Examples of resolutions for the new year

Go to the gym

Being active is always a good idea. If you are not doing any sport so far, the following year can be the perfect time to do it! A great idea is to set the short-term goal to go to the gym two times a week (in the first three months) and the long-term goal to go five times a week (by the end of the year).

Of course, you can adjust the numbers as you consider more suitable for you, and you can also pick a particular sport, not the gym necessary (swimming, tennis, squash, baseball, Crossfit, etc).

You can also add your workouts to your weekly planner template to ensure you don’t miss any of them.

Pay all your debts

The financial plan is crucial in anyone's life, and getting rid of your debts is definitely a significant step.

You can pay a quarter of your debts until May and all of them by the end of the year. Think about a sustainable plan to be able to stick to it.

Educate yourself more

The investment in yourself is always the best. Think about what you would like to learn and how. It can be a skill, a specific domain, or may deepen the knowledge in the field you are working in right now.

Decide what you want to learn, then pick the tool. You can read books, sign up o courses (online or offline), or go to a University.

Buy a new home

You can choose to level up your life by upgrading your home. Maybe you live with your parents, and it's time to move out and live by yourself. Or perhaps you live in rent at the moment, and it's time to buy your own apartment. Or maybe you live in an apartment and want to buy a house.

Whatever your resolution is, you can start at least planning this. The short-term goal can be to search for the option in the next couple of months and find funding options (inform about loans, or calculate how much you are able to spend).

The long-term goal will be buying it and, after that, moving in./
