In last few days of 2015 we been out asking what your New Year's Resolutions are for 2016? Maybe it's to go to the Gym more often or to eat more healthier meals, so we went out to find out your resolutions.
Every Christmas some of us see the end of the year and dawn of a new year as an opportunity to recreate, remaster and embody a new and improved version of our selves. The idea of ‘New Year’s Resolutions’ springs to mind and with it comes so many false promises to ourselves and idea’s of how to be a brighter, better and a brilliant ‘new’ person in the coming year. Do we really need New Year Resolutions? Are we just kidding ourselves or are there really some genuine and committed people out there who stick to their resolutions of ‘losing weight’ or ‘eating more fruit’ or the humanitarians out there who promise to give back to the community or volunteer. I’ve had the same three resolutions since I was eighteen #1 Lose Weight/get in shape #2 Be a better person # Become a published writer aka meet my career goals.
While most of the time I do try to aspire to these goals I often falter. In 2015 I did manage to lose two stone; I did then gain some of it back only to lose it again in the weeks leading up to Christmas due to sheer stress. I always try to be a better person every day, not always easy, but I try none the less; whilst I’m not exactly a bestselling author, I am getting published journalistically which is something to be proud of, but am I really fulfilling these self -imposed goals? After a few months, these resolutions fall to the background of our minds while the realities of twenty first century life living, work, social media and nights out take over. So what’s your New Year Resolution? I asked a few guys and gals on a Christmas night out, here’s what they had to Say…….
