2025 is here! The Morning Thing shared New Year’s Resolutions that are achievable!

The New Year brings a fresh start! What goals would you like to achieve?
The word “resolution” often becomes a negative term because many of us give up after 2 weeks.
Good Housekeeping came up with a list of 65 Achievable New Year’s Resolutions You’ll Actually Keep!
Check out the FULL LIST HERE!
If we can adopt 1 or 2 or maybe 3 of these goals, we will be on our way to a healthy, more balanced 2025.

Here are some of the resolutions that we are going to try in the New Year.

  • Start a gratitude journal.
  • Make time for family.
  • Create a budget you can stick to.
  • Cook new foods.
  • Add cleaning tasks to your calendar.
  • Prioritize sleep.
  • Learn to love vegetables.
  • Schedule annual health screenings.
  • Become a plant owner.
  • Take the stairs.
  • Plan a vacation.
  • Start walking more.
  • Write to yourself.
  • Do one thing at a time.

As you start this new year, we hope you can remember the promises of these powerful bible verses:

2 Corinthians 5:17 – Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.

Isaiah 43:18-19 – “Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.

Jeremiah 29:11 – For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

Proverbs 3:5-6 – Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.

Revelation 21:5 – And he who was seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” Also he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”

Ephesians 4:22-24 – To put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.
