The New Year is an advent of a new dawn of new possibilities, novel opportunities, immense hope and deep faith. That is why New Year resolutions have their own significance. But, always remember one thing that the moment you open your inner eye, that itself is a new beginning. In that case, there’s no need to depend on any particular date or temporal aspect.

I made resolutions every year, and happily failed in sticking to my resolutions. Do you know why? It’s because I did not know the significance of a New Year Resolution, I did not have that perseverance to keep the flame of my resolutions burning and a small blunder or challenge in the path of accomplishing my resolutions demotivated me to the core. It is only when I grew up and saw life with greater precision, I realized the need of a resolution; I realized its magical effects and its worth. I wanted to share the same with all of you, so that your New Year can begin with magical effects of resolutions and well-being. In a generic way, you can make a resolution during any part of the year, hour of the day that is convenient to you.

In a psychological perspective, Resolutions are important since they strengthen the sub-conscious realm of the mind; they instill motivation and push us towards fruitful actions. Resolutions, thus, work on our mental framework and modify our behavior patterns to accomplish our desired goals. In other words, resolutions are strong messages to the brain in order to bring out a stable positive change in thoughts and behavior.

To make the new year more energized, goals more clear and attainable, here are the top 10 New Year Resolutions that you can implement in your day-to-day life. They will help you to achieve higher dimensions of good health, prosperity, hazzle-free life, mental well-being and overall vitality ‘n’ vigor:

  1. I am worthwhile and unique in my own self
  2. I am created for a meaningful purpose in life. I will work on recognizing and achieving it
  3. From now on my goals, dreams and aspirations will be for the betterment of my own self, for my near and dear ones and for the entire society as a whole
  4. I am healthy, happy and delightful
  5. No matter how I look or what others feel for me, my inner being is pure and beautiful
  6. I have a lot of potentialities within me. I will harness them and utilize them in a positive way
  7. No challenge can pull me back. I will use every obstacle and difficulty as a stepping stone and move forward

How to make and achieve resolutions:

1)     Set clear goals on what you want to achieve in the upcoming year and future

2)     Motivate yourself to achieve your goals no matter what

3)     Each morning plan your day, and try to move a step forward towards attaining your resolution

4)     At night, take a look back and see where did you lack in your actions, work on them and move forward

5)     Celebrate your achievements no matter how small they are.

Do not be too rigid in the process or towards yourself. Each day will have its own ups and downs. Just take baby steps forward. Sooner or later you will be there. Life may manifest itself with thorns and stones on its way. You may even fall a number of times. In these situations don’t stop your journey. Grab up all your strength, get up and keep walking….99% of people may have many reasons for their failures and problems. The 1% of the people who make it to the top are the ones who never stop their efforts, who do not get disheartened with their problems, and who believe in themselves.

 My best wishes to each one of you on the New Year. May all your cherished dreams and aspirations come true…Keep smiling and keep shining!

Best Wishes,
