The end of the year is the right time for anyone to make the new year’s resolutions, so they can improve themselves. Moreover, new year’s resolutions can also push someone to actively achieve their new or existing target that may not have been realized in the previous year. 

You need more than just determination to reach your new year’s resolutions. In fact, only 8% of us are able to achieve their new year’s resolutions—based on research by Scranton University, USA. 

As we’re approaching 2021, what are your new year’s resolutions? A healthier lifestyle? More savings? A new job? Or new hobbies? Here are 5 tips to help you successfully achieve your new year’s resolutions. 

Start Step By Step
You don’t need to rush in starting your new year’s resolutions. “One step at a time” is the perfect saying to apply to your new year’s resolutions, so you’ll progress smoothly and right on time. Take it slow, start from the tiniest step, and gradually tackle the bigger steps.

For example, you want to start a healthier lifestyle by exercising regularly, let’s start with light exercise every day. If you immediately start doing an intense workout, you may feel too overwhelmed and risk your new year’s resolution to fail.

If you have a new year’s resolution to have more savings, start by saving in small amounts, then increase the amount little by little in accordance with your goal. 

Don’t forget to find a secure and practical savings option. One option that you can consider is opening a savings account at PermataBank through a mobile banking app called PermataMobile X. You can check and manage your savings with only your smartphone, anytime and anywhere. 

Make a More Detailed To-Do-List
The next step is to make your new year’s resolutions more detailed. Perhaps you want more savings, set up a detailed goal on how much money you wish to save this year, your savings target, a period of savings, and the place to save your money. 

The same goes for other new year’s resolutions. You need to plan a list of activities that are needed for the success of your new year’s resolutions. You don’t have to make a daily list of activities, just start from a monthly plan and you can accelerate it once you’re more used to it. 

Share Your Resolutions to Your Closest Friends
Another tip that can help you successfully achieve your new year’s resolutions is to share your resolutions with your closest friends. Therefore, the people around you can support you. This kind of support can make you more energetic in achieving your new year’s resolutions. 

Not just supporting, the people closest to you can also give you the right feedback. When you have a resolution to regularly exercise but you feel the laziness kicking in every time it’s time for you to go to the gym, your friends can motivate you by always reminding you about your training schedule at your gym.

Failure isn’t a Problem
Don’t be afraid of failure! Many people scratch their new year’s resolutions down because they don’t want to fail again. Truthfully, there are many things you can take from that failure. If you still have 2020 resolutions that haven’t been achieved yet, then try to achieve those again as your 2021 resolutions. 

Don’t repeat the same mistakes, fix your mistakes in new ways. In this era of high technology, you can use various smartphone applications to ensure the success of your new year’s resolutions. Surely, it will make you easier in achieving your new year’s resolutions. 

Reward Yourself for Each Milestone
Lastly, to keep your spirit up in achieving your new year’s resolutions, give yourself a reward once you’ve successfully reached a milestone. When you have achieved your resolution target, you can buy your favorite things as a reward to yourself, so you’ll be more motivated to finish another to-do-list. 

With those tips shared above, you don’t have to worry about your new year’s resolutions anymore.
