5 Top New Year's Resolutions

Unsurprisingly consumer Magazine Which? has found that the top five new year's resolutions are:

1. Do more exercise

2. Lose weight

3. Eat more healthily

4. Take up or restart a hobby/activity

5. Learn a new skill

New year is, of course, a good time to start thinking about how to be healthier and happier, but it's a continuous process - not something that has a definite goal to achieve. Even weight loss is more about what happens after you achieve your goal, and not just about the goal itself.

My book "500 Plus Health And Happiness Tips" can help you along the way.

But remember to be realistic about what you can achieve. Setting yourself too ambitious targets is a recipe for disaster. But also you need to have confidence in yourself and what you can achieve. Don't get discouraged if you make mistakes or aren't always at your best, as long as the general trend is in the direction you want to go, you'll eventually achieve that new year's resolution in full.
