By Virginia Laird
Like many others, you are most likely trying to determine what you need to do to make sure that this year is better than last. For millions, this comes in the way of determining resolutions to stick to throughout the new year. Life coaches advise that such goal setting can be a good idea when the list is kept simple. Still, there are some who are skeptical when it comes to making and keeping resolutions. If you are ready to resolve having a few goals this year, consider a few tips from the experts to help you determine what exactly you should have on your list. These include:
- Work out daily this new year
- Commit to drinking more water
- Set goals and stick to them
Work Out Daily This Year
A daily workout is a great plan for improving your health throughout this new year. Although there are many who insist this requires a trip to the gym, fitness experts advise that any exercise can be sufficient enough to help improve your overall health. Research indicates that walking as few as three miles each day can help make drastic health improvements. No matter what workout you choose, make sure to add one to each and every day of this year.
Commit to Drinking More Water
Staying properly hydrated has much to do with staying healthy. If you are one who has made (or is considering) improving your health a priority this new year, a great place to begin should include consuming plenty of water. Research suggests that most should consume at least half of their body weight in ounces of water daily. For those who are not lovers of water, this can prove to be a struggle. However, there are plenty of flavors of water on the market which can help you to meet that goal without it being a drag. You can also drop some fruit into the water to infuse it to give it some taste. Start today making water a priority in your new year.
Set Goals and Stick to Them
Across the nation, there are millions trying to figure out how to shed a few pounds this year as well as how to improve health. Health and wellness experts admit (whether it is a new year or not) setting small achievable goals is the best way to make changes and improvements. Losing a pound a week is easier than losing 10 pounds a month. These professionals suggest that setting a goal, looking at it daily, and finding the steps necessary to stick to it are all part of the secret to success.
