If you are not setting goals, try to take some time for yourself in small ways, get some rest and recharge your social batteries, drink more water - these things are just as valuable to us as creating new year’s resolutions!

Let’s try to take the pressure off, let ourselves off the hook a little more, be more honest, compassionate and true to ourselves, our families and our friends. We don’t have to be fine all the time. This year, our resolution could be not to make any resolutions but to take good care of ourselves.

January comes with this ‘new year, new me’ idea and this creates more pressure, but let’s face it the novelty can wear off after a few days or weeks.

If you find setting goals or resolutions helpful, instead of setting an unrealistic goal or target in the new year, break things down and perhaps set a target for each day instead. This way you can manage your expectations and you’re more likely to achieve each goal - sometimes small steps are better.
