New Year Resolutions 2026: Is it just all BS?
With the new year approaching I wonder if I am the only one who is thinking constantly about life, new years resolutions, what I need to do to change my life once and for all and just life and what I really want to do. I am a 90s baby, yes ladies and gentlemen I am old and I still can't say I have it all figured out. Ok let's be real deep down I think we all know what we need to do or change to improve our lives. But if we know, why do we wait till the new year starts every single time. If we really want to change our habits and/or lifestyle why don't we just start right away. After all the time is clearly ticking and if we want to get results faster we need to make it happen sooner than later. Now hold on change is difficult and sometimes, ok almost always takes a long time. Specially when talking about losing weight, going back to school and getting a degree, or saving for something you have wanted to do all your life. Which sometimes leads to the question how bad do you want it and what are you willing to sacrifice in order to make it happen?
We have all seen people with the same issues as us get their shit together. But rarely do they show you the whole process that they go through to get there. Is it because the journey is messy and not Instagram or Tik Tok pretty, cause I think its is worthy of being there. It should be since that is the main thing we enjoy in shows, movies, books and dramas. We enjoy the juicy drama and details that unfold and happen as the characters face the bad and good times. Sometimes the ending sucks or it is predictable and what we end up enjoying more is the middle, the process of it all. I mean have you ever thought you were going to give something a 5 star rating but gave it a 4 star because the ending was meh.
Hear me out to be honest I think life might be more simpler than we think it is. Is it hard yes and it will definitely knock you down. So no I am not saying it is easy because otherwise I would not be writing this and many of us if not all of us would have a perfect life. Despite being stressed at work or overthinking every little thing I am smart enough to know by now that how you respond and how you look at every situation truly dictates how everything will go from there. It really all starts with you and your actions. Example are you a half full or half empty cup. Shoot I'm both and it really has to be a good day for me to be half full cup kind of gal. And just the fact that we have that intuition of knowing what has got to change should make it easier for us. But does it?
Look at this point I don't even know what the hell Im talking about but if you have read this far thank you so much for sticking around. Bottom line is we all got something we need to change or make happen so please if you can do not wait till next year because any day and anytime is a good time to start. With that in mind please don't take this little rant too seriously and to answer that question wether 2026 resolutions or resolutions for any year are BS, well I think they are but that's just my humble opinion. We all think differently, are facing different battles and have completely different lives. So take it as you wish and smile please because life is short and who knows next year our lives could get better, rephrase that they will get better. Let's just make sure we don't quit halfway this time since we are more than capable of going all the way! And remember life will be better at the end of the finish line. Fingers crossed because one thing gets fixed and then we got to change or do something else again. Until next time.
