The start of a new year causes many people to make a New Year's resolution. What is a resolution you ask? A resolution is a decision to do or not do something. Usually, it is a long-term goal which can take a lot of time. For example, some people say they will lose a certain amount of weight or some may vow to quit smoking. Unfortunately, many people make resolutions and then fail at them because they were too difficult to begin with or they didn't have the discipline to follow through.
I used to make New Year's resolutions but would never follow through with them either so I have stopped making them. Instead, I am going to try to live each day as best as I can by eating healthy, exercising and being kind. I will not get upset with myself if I did not accomplish those goals that day because I can start again afresh each day.
What do you think about New Year's resolutions? Have you made any thus far? What are some goals that you want to achieve in 2018?

I think New Year's resolutions are good. They help us improve at certain things. They can make us kind and have a better life then it already is.
ReplyDeleteThree New Year's resolutions that I want to improve on is eat more food, keep quiet when I need to stay quiet and not stay up until 1:00 in the morning.
A previous resolution that I worked on was..."read a chapter book everyday". But I had soccer on Wednesdays (I think it was on Wednesdays at least) and piano on Saturdays. This was when I was six too. I didn't succeed at this resolution.

My opinion on New Years? Well I think it's just the last day of a year yeah I don't mind fireworks, parties and cake but still only just the last day of school. I mean why don't you just say happy New Years? Why is it such a big deal to go in a new year and make resolutions? I don't know!
ReplyDeleteMy three goals? I didn't really make any. Maybe spend more time with my mum? Try and do puzzles faster. Maybe try to save up money for something I really want? I am not a big fan of changing things. That why I also make anti-resolutions. Mine were keep sending time with my mum. Another one is to play the same amount of XBOX. The last one is drink the same amount of water (with that kool aid stuff because water is disgusting duh). That's really it.
My old resolutions? Again I don't make resolutions. One is fall asleep faster (a.k.a not stay up watching YouTube on my phone hehe). I didn't work out... Another one is stop being so sassy but If you know me I'm very VERY sassy.. That's it

I think New Years resolutions are something to make people feel better about themselves even though they are not doing it and you get to wait one whole year just to say something so when it happens it is fun. They are a way for companies to make money. I forget what it is called but there is a company that sells new years resolutions on what I was told is metal. It is carved inside metal. They frame it and says my New Years 2018 resolution is something and they make a lot of money off of it.
ReplyDeleteMy three goals are to get straight A's at school, be better at basketball, and be a better kid to my parents so have a better behavior.
A previous resolution is well it was this year but my resolution was to not make a resolution next year because I know I am not going to follow through with it.

I think the new years resolution is well, I don't really care about it. I just don't care about it because I don't have anything that I want to do better at.
ReplyDeleteMaybe three goals I want to beat: Sleep for five weeks, drink lots of water, get better at soccer even though I'm good but I want to get better, get better at school. And as a joke I want to get arrested and go to prison.
I had no goals that I wanted to achieve last year so I have nothing to talk about.

I think New Year resolutions is good because if somebody is smoking he or she can stop smoking because its not good for their body.
ReplyDeleteMy resolution that I want to achieve this year is eat more healthy foods so I can be healthy.
My resolution last year is to read more than 1 or 2 books, take a nap when i have time and sleep at 9:30.

I think it might be cool to make a resolution because it's going to be fun doing my resolution. It will be hard. It will make me better at games maybe. I don't know.
ReplyDeleteThe three goal for the yea:, stop talking in class maybe?, get better at soccer, get better at R2D Roblox game. That will do me good so I get a team, get better at school, stop getting angry at silly things.
I did nothing at all last year I don't know what to say at all.

I am not really into resolutions. All they are me to is a wish that will never happen.
ReplyDeleteOne time I had a resolution and that was to brush my teeth and that failed miserably. And that is why I am never going to make a resolution again!!!!!!

I think new years resolutions are fun because it tells us things that we don't know like how I failed drinking water everyday last year.
ReplyDeleteOne of my goals is to be quiet but I failed and last year I had another goal to not shout in class. So last year I had a basketball goal to shoot more baskets. I did kind of good.

I do not like changing things. It is too hard and difficult. I wish you did not have to try and do different things, it is too hard to do. I hope I do not have to try a different thing.
ReplyDeleteIf I have to do something I will try to not talk back to my parents. I want to go to bed earlier. I will try not to fight with my parents. I will try to play outside.I played outside and had fun it was awesome.

New year resolutions are good to have to achieve things. I think that NEW YEAR'S resolutions are pretty cool but sometimes they don't work out though.
ReplyDeleteMy NEW YEARS resolutions is to be nicer to people but I failed already, not get any more incident reports from daycare to exercise more/yoga.
I have not got any new year resolutions to achieve yet.
~snoopy19
I don't fully like having resolutions.
ReplyDeleteMy three goals are to do ice hockey lessons, to stop fighting with my brother, get my mom's computer fixed because she said I can use it. So those are the three things I have in mind this year.
Sorry dentist, but I failed to brush my teeth every time I have sugar last year. Man is it ever hard to brush my teeth every time I have candy, chocolate,ice cream, pink eggs and french toast.

I think New Year's resolution are helpful because they help me do my work. I want to save my money and to give my money to mom but I don't think that is going to work. I didn't do well and I only gave my grandma 20 dollars.
