[vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner el_class=”container”][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]It\u2019s that time of year guys, we\u2019re all out there thinking that maybe this year\u2019s going to be different, we\u2019re going to go to the gym more, drink less, save more money…but these are actually pretty pointless since by February we\u2019ve given up on them. So here are some resolutions NOT to make this year because, let\u2019s face it, you probably won\u2019t stick to them anyway.<\/p>\n

Exercise more<\/strong>
\nThe thing about exercise is that it only works if you actually do it often – so many people join gyms and start working out more in the summer, but by the time winter comes, the time when you actually should be shredding to look good in summer, everyone\u2019s given up again and is wasting their money on membership fees.<\/p>\n

Instead of making your resolution just to exercise more or join a gym, make it more specific, like join a footy team or run with your dog at the park every day – make it easy for yourself!<\/p>\n

Eat less<\/strong>
\nAgain, one of the most popular resolutions people don\u2019t actually stick to is to eat less, or go on a diet. If you\u2019re working hard, the last thing you\u2019ll want to be doing is to eat less, you\u2019ll just be hungry and snapping at everyone all the time.<\/p>\n

Instead of saying you\u2019ll go on a diet or you\u2019ll eat less, say you\u2019ll only order fast food once a week or you\u2019ll sign up for cooking classes to learn how to cook healthier food.<\/p>\n

Quit drinking\/smoking<\/strong>
\nThis isn\u2019t actually a bad resolution as you\u2019ll feel better and be healthier overall if you do it, but it\u2019s more about how you go about doing it. You need to be serious and have a plan in place, not just say you\u2019ll do it because it\u2019s New Years and that\u2019s what people do.<\/p>\n

Instead of straight up quitting, just cut it down. If you smoke a pack a day, just smoke a few less everyday until you get used to it. If all else fails though, talking to the quitline and getting help to get yourself sussed is great too!<\/p>\n

Save more money<\/strong>
\nYeah we all want more cash and to have a nice little bundle of money if we need it, but a vague resolution like \u2018save more money\u2019 isn\u2019t really going to help. Things will come up and you\u2019ll start feeling like it\u2019s too much of a sacrifice to save, so you won\u2019t.<\/p>\n

Instead of being too general, state a specific amount you want to save each week. It can be anything, even a dollar is better than nothing. Some people have found it good to save one extra dollar every week, so the first week it\u2019s saving $1, then the next it\u2019s $2 and so on.<\/p>\n
