Happy New Year! January is the time when we all welcome new
beginnings and set resolutions to make this year better than the last. But how
does one keep those resolutions throughout the year ahead? The New York Times
offers four suggestions: First, make a concrete plan, something visual to embed
it to memory. Second, put something you value on the line – is it your health
or your pocketbook – keep that in mind when you are tempted to break your
resolution. Third, bundle your temptations. For instance, you want to exercise
more, but struggle getting to the gym and you also have a fondness for gossip
magazines but feel they are a waste of time. Combine the two – read the
magazines only at the gym! And fourth, seek social support. You can achieve
more by pursuing goals with the help of a mentor.
Still haven’t made any resolutions? Resolve to join us every
month for a wide variety of events and activities. This month we explore our
creativity through music with outings to local musical performances, Elvis’
birthday celebrations and concerts by our Joyful Noise Choir. We invite you to
Welcome New Beginnings and make regular visits to Juniper Village part of your
new year’s goals!
