In the season of resolutions, my resolution is simple. I want to look back at 2016, knowing that I became a better person. This list focuses on spending time getting to know yourself and those around you in a deeper and more meaningful way. Get rid of what's holding you back, try simple changes, and you're on your way to success. Here's to becoming a better version of yourself in 2016!
1. Give up Netflix/Hulu for a month.
Not only will this be a great time-saver, you'll also get more sleep, and end up feeling much healthier! And, it's only one month. Hello, productivity!
2. Perform a random act of kindness.
3. Always say "thank you" to strangers.
4. Give yourself 30 minutes to reflect each day.
5. Try a new hobby.
At least if you fail, you know what NOT to spend your time on.
6. Visit with your grandparents...
...but do it for the right reasons. Yes, they spoil you, but show them how much you love them too. Be intentional with your time.
7. Hand-write a letter to a good friend.
8. Try a new food.
9. Give up social media for a week.
10. Take yourself on a date.
11. Learn how to make a new food.
12. Donate $100 to your favorite charity.
13. Help your parents around the house when you go home.
14. Write down things that you like about your physical appearance.
15. Read a book instead of watching TV.
16. Be present when you're with your friends.
May this year be filled with good deeds to yourself and others. Don't let this list be the end, let it be the start!
