Keeping Those New Year's Resolutions
New Year’s resolutions are being thrown around right now like the hottest trend of the season. Aren’t they always? And just like a “hot trend” they burn brightly and disappear before reaching any sort of maturity. But…what if this year was different? Who says you can’t actually make a resolution AND keep it? After all, you do something long enough it becomes habit, and after that it becomes a part of your character. Whether it’s teeth related or not, some of us have habits we’d like to renew and others have new habits we’re eager to begin. Which ever side of the spectrum you fall on, here are 5 tips to keep you going in the right direction.
- Even when you’re tired, STICK WITH IT.
- If you can, do the activity with a buddy, having someone who holds you accountable helps you to stick to it!
- Do it at the same time everyday, like in the morning or at night, so it becomes engrained in your everyday schedule.
- Reward yourself when accomplishing your goal in the beginning, whether it’s a nice bath or a warm cup of tea.
- Don’t quit!!
