5 Resolutions to Keep in 2017

Everybody says they re going to do things when the new year comes, and let's be honest; people usually don't keep them. While most resolutions come to an end, her are ten resolutions to make, and keep, as the new year rolls in:


1. Stay Motivated.

Staying motivated in every aspect of your life is a good way to start out the year strong! Stay motivated for school, being healthy, and work to have the year fall into place.

2. Be Selfish.

Usually it's good to be selfless, but take this year to be selfish and work on you. Remove negative relationships from your life, and do anything and everything to keep yourself happy this year. Make yourself your number one priority because you are the most important thing in your life. Take care and work on yourself.

3. Work Hard

Working hard will pay off and come with many accomplishments. Make 2017 the year you work the hardest and have the most success. Whether it be in school, work, staying healthy, or anything, work hard to reach your goals.

4. Keep your head up

I think a lot of people took some hard L's in 2016, I know I did. Let 2017 be the year of dubs. And if you do take a L, just shake it off. You got this. Keep striving for a win and keep your head up when you don't. Be optimistic

5. Save Your Money

These days everyone has to have the latest thing to be trendy. Instead of spending your hard earned money on stuff you'll use once, save it. Try by saving at least $5 or $10 a week or more every week until 2018. By the end of the year you'll have some spending money to reward yourself with for having such a great year.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.
