New Year’s Resolutions 2015: 15 Ideas For Setting Goals In The New Year

  1. Less Life Friction and Problems – How often do you create your own problems? Whether it is a forgotten appointment or missed deadline, not managing your time results in increased life friction. Avoid creating your own problems by planning and preparing for your day.

Manage Your Time, Improve Your Life

Time management is all about spending your time in the right places, and on the right things.
It’s about knowing your priorities, obligations, and schedule.
When you manage your time, you benefit in all areas of life.

New Year’s Resolutions 2015: 15 Ideas For Setting Goals In The New Year

“Having unknowns in your schedule and being OK with that can force you to really focus on what’s at hand,” according to Life Dev
What it comes down to is learning to live in the moment, what some psychologists call “mindfulness.” Many of us schedule our every move, and then obsess over sticking to the plan. Few people allow room to improvise or to simply be still. Learning to be mindful – putting your attention on the present, rather than thinking about the past or planning for the future – can relieve stress, improve sleep, lower blood pressure and improve overall well-being, according to Harvard Health Publications
13. Make time for exercise. Just 20 minutes a day of moderate physical activity can boost energy, improve mood and keep certain dangerous health conditions like high blood pressure at bay. Walking, swimming and mowing the lawn fall into the category of moderate exercise. Exercise doesn’t have to be tedious. In fact, it can even be fun. Take a dance class, go hiking or join a local sports team to get the blood flowing.
15. Be kind to yourself. Above all else, remember that it’s OK to make mistakes along the way. Be kind to yourself – the process of making improvements to our daily routines is a marathon, not a sprint. Self-love can go a long way toward a healthier lifestyle.  
“Emotions that are cultivated in the mind often manifest themselves somewhere on the human body,” according to Tiny Buddha. “A dull ache in the stomach can translate to a gut full of worries.”
