From cutting out booze to eating less meat, try these bite-size New Year's resolutions you'll stick to 👌
Over-ambitious, unrealistic goals see 80 per cent of resolutions fail by February 1. But by choosing to make micro-resolutions – bite-sized, achievable pledges you will actually stick to – you can reach your goal with a “slightly improved” you for 2020.Psychologist Dr Pam Spurr says: “Sweeping resolutions are easy to dump because people immediately feel like failures when they cannot rise to the demands.
Elaine Hindal, chief executive of Drinkaware, says: “Set a realistic target of having drink free days, such as Monday to Wednesday, or only drink at weekends. Estelle Keeber, co-founder of mumsinbusinessassociation.com, says: “Download a screen time app, which switches off notifications at set times. Start at bedtime, it will still allow calls but notifications will wait until the morning. Set aside time for checking your social media so you don’t spend all day scrolling.”Hayley Quinn, Match’s dating expert, says: “No more complaining that your love life is doomed, it’s all about changing your mindset.
Kate says: “Forget committing to amazing sex every night. Instead, commit to one passionate kiss a day. You’ll be amazed how it reconnects you. Also take ten minutes ‘Marie Kondo-ing’ your underwear drawer and ditch anything that no longer brings joy, and treat yourself to something new.”Cutting down on single-use plastics seems overwhelming so start small with some simple switches.
