The year 2019 is getting closer and with it our contemplation on what we have achieved so far and what we would like to do in the future. Women especially tend to make a lot of New Year resolutions, which they think would improve their lives in the course of next year. The question is – which specific goals will truly improve your life as a woman? What to focus on in the following year? If you need guidance, here are some good suggestions.
1. Develop a new skill
Every human being feels the need to learn new things and to develop in various aspects. Don’t take that opportunity away from you. A new skill can be anything – a new language, a course in sewing, dancing classes, photography or just about anything. The point is to broaden your horizons and to feel you still have something to learn and to evolve in certain ways. You may even choose to work on one part of yourself that you feel needs some improvement. Perhaps you get angry easily? Take a course on how to relieve stress and anger. You are bad at organizing your obligations? Take a course on how to efficiently organize and use your time.
2. Develop healthy habits
This has a truly broad sense, so you can choose to focus on various things. First of all, you can finally switch to a healthier diet – try to fill your fridge with fruit and vegetables and cut out or significantly reduce the food and drinks that you know are really bad for you. If smoking has been your life-long issue, maybe the year 2019 is the one when you will finally get rid of this nasty habit. Also, you can try to be more outdoors than before. We are a part of nature, so do your best to spend some time in the forest, by the lake or in the mountains – discover yourself again away from the city noise.
3. Travel more
New experiences are invaluable. They not only show us how other people live but they also show us who we are and how we react to the unknown. Travelling will allow you to see yourself in another light, among new people and unknown places and traditions – it’s what enriches everybody’s life. Even if you can’t travel far, go to some new place nearby at least once a month – it will prevent you from getting stuck in a rut.
4. Exercise more
Becoming regularly physically active is highly important. You should exercise not just to look fit but also to relieve everyday stress and be mentally healthy. There is a perfect physical activity for everybody but you don’t need to do a lot to have good results – even moderate but regular exercise can get you a long way and help you decompress. Many people choose to exercise at home because all they need is a couple of pieces of equipment and good music to let go of some steam. You can get an idea from browsing Cyberfit equipment or equipment on similar sites about what would best suit you – choose your weapon and get active!
5. Make career progress
Women feel great when they feel their work is appreciated and that they are able to go up the career ladder. As a woman, you can achieve so much in your career; you only need to switch your focus to a specific thing in 2019 to make more progress. You can choose to work on your weaker sides in order to prevent them to slow you down. You can also learn a new thing in relation to your job – why not expand your knowledge on a certain aspect of your job or become specialized in something? You can set a certain goal for yourself regarding your career and then determine what you need to do exactly in order to achieve it. Your career may not be the most important part of your life but it certainly is a big part.
Final words
Setting goals for the following year is important – when you set a goal, you will probably do your best to achieve it. Once you have set your eyes on something, it’s more probable you will find a way to get it.
