With the new year, and new decade approaching more and more rapidly, it’s time to start thinking of those pesky New Year Resolutions. This year, try thinking of your resolutions as a way to better your life, rather than a goal that most times, is not being met. Try making smaller goals, one that seem easily achievable within a couple of weeks or a month. Setting goals that seem too simple, is the best place to start because you feel so much better when you accomplish a resolution, rather than fail to meet it and forget about it until months later. To start of your 2020 on the right foot, try to set these three simple goals for yourself and see how easy they are to accomplish!
1. Tackle the Sunday Scaries
Yes, the “Sunday Scaries”. This refers to laying in bed or on the couch all morning at the end of the weekend, with the upcoming week looming over your head and to-do lists floating in your head. We’ve all been there, and it’s time to let that go in 2020. Spend less time lounging around the house and instead set aside time for a fun outdoor activity to do Sunday morning to ensure you’re up and out of bed! The Maxwell Street Market is a great way to get outside and get your feet moving, while still feeling relaxed and enjoying your weekend! Catch them every Sunday starting in March 2020!
2. Get Organized
Every “New Year Resolution” list always starts with some type of organizational hack. But, it’s true. Getting your priorities straight and literally reorganizing your life, will do wonders for you in the long run. Whether it is physically reorganizing your room, kitchen, closet, or mentally reorganizing your mind and separating the essentials from the non-essentials, it will tremendously improve your life. If you need a more physical way to clear your mind, try out Room to Breathe: Yoga and Wellness Studio located just down the street from us here at Aqua! This small change will tremendously increase your health and wellness and soon change your life in the new year!
3. Try New Things
The easiest way to try new things, is through food! Even if you just experiment a little and cook with one new ingredient each week, your taste buds will thank you! With so much culture and diversity here in the River North area, food from all over the world is being cooked, tasted, and grown here every day! Change can seem scary and intimidating, but goal setting now to change just the simplest part of your eating habits, will help you get towards your goal in the end! Within blocks of Aqua at Lakeshore East you can find Asian food, Italian food, Chinese food, and South African food! Expand your palate and try new things!
So, no matter which goals you choose to set for yourself, just know that setting any sort of small goal, is a step in the right direction. Setting goals is the perfect way to get you on the track to living your best life!
