By Quinton Kiser  So, it’s a new year. It’s 2021, to be exact. For some of us, it is a little hard to believe that we are actually in the year 2021. I can remember when the year 2000 was an exciting, futuristic year that many people were looking forward to. I can remember when the year 2010 was a vague year that seemed far off in the future, and I couldn’t imagine what life might be like when we finally got there. But now we’ve arrived. If that doesn’t amaze you (even just a little), you’re probably at least glad to be done with 2020. That year was definitely a year for the history books, and I’m sure many of us are hoping that 2021 is better.
The good news is, you don’t have to merely hope that 2021 is a better year. You can do certain things for yourself to help make this a decent year. Granted, 2020 was filled with all sorts of things that most of us had little control over—COVID-19, a rancorous presidential election, Tiger King, and depleted store shelves. Nevertheless, much of our well-being is still in our control. We just need to take the initiative to self-reflect and decide specifically what we need to work on in our lives and how can go about doing it. Here are some ways you can take better care of yourself in 2021 so that it is better than 2020.  Okay, the year has ended (and what a tough one it has been), and we indulged through the holiday season. Hey – we’re only human! But now we’re in the new year, and if you haven’t at least thought about what to do better for the coming year, you might be in the minority…lol. It’s time for New Year’s resolutions…hopefully ones we can actually keep.
If you’ve thought about changing your lifestyle habits to healthier ones, then you’ll need to learn how to get through the first 30 days, as implementing new habits can be challenging! You may need to know what to do differently, and what to expect while you’re implementing these changes. |
