2025 Resolutions That Are Practically Doable

It is important that our resolutions follow the SMART criteria, which stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound (do this for 30 days and see what happens). Here are some sample resolutions that can be considered this year:

1. Practice digital abstinence by avoiding browsing one hour before you sleep. This helps improve sleep quality and mental relaxation.

2. Avoid wasting food by purchasing only what you can consume. This not only reduces waste but also promotes mindful consumption and financial savings.

3. When shopping, steer clear of the "Buy Now, Pay Later" promotions offered by banks. Avoid using future income to purchase non-essential items. Instead, buy them once you have the available funds, ensuring financial stability.

4. Prepare meals at home instead of eating at fast food restaurants. This encourages healthier eating habits and can lead to significant cost savings over time.

5. Avoid foods that contain artificial sugars, such as cakes, donuts, and sugary drinks. Reducing intake of added sugars can improve overall health and reduce the risk of chronic diseases.

These resolutions, aligned with the SMART framework, can lead to a healthier and more financially responsible lifestyle.
