20 Ways To Make 2017 The Best Year Ever

December 28, 2016 · 14 Comments

Hey everyone, I know I been a little MIA with the Holidays around things get a little cray cray. But hey I’m back and today we are discussing 20 ways to jump-start 2017. So as we all know it’s that time of the month you start hearing folks say “New Year New Me” well… we not doing that over in these parts. Now I don’t really believe in making New Year’s resolutions. Most of the time we never end up keeping them, and then when we don’t stick with it we feel like a failure .Resolutions should be about embracing a different way of thinking. I feel like the real key to making your life amazing this next year is to find what makes you happy and do whatever it takes to get it and keep it. Here’s are some ways to make this the best year of your whole life.

  1.Do something that scares the crap out of you.(maybe I’ll touch a spider lol)

2.Spend time with people who make life better.

3.Take a day off just because you want to.

4.Pick up a new hobby that makes you happy.

5.Read a book that will change your life.

6.Eat healthier.(or at least try)

7.TRAVEL! Theres simply so much to see in the world.

8.Get rid of things (and people!) you don’t need, positive vibes only.

9.Find a productive way to channel stress instead of letting it get you.

10.Don’t take everything too seriously. SMILE 

11.Make time just for yourself sometimes you need to just zen out

12.Eat something you’ve never tried there’s such an abundance of food in the world

13.Finish something you started.

14.Work toward reaching a career goal you always thought of.

15.Forgive someone.

16.Start or even add to a savings account.

17.Treat yourself to something you’ve been wanting forever.

18. Volunteer for a cause you’re passionate about.

19.Organize ( Room, House, Shoes anything get it in formation)

20.Most of all just live life you only get one so enjoy it

 

Here’s some recaps of fun times that made my 2016 so fun!!!!

    You are such an inspiration and im so glad 2016 has been a good year and may 2017 bring you much happiness and success? i have two main goals for 2017 that are both achievable and another that maybe too much of a stretch. 1:- i am going to write the book ive had in my head for years, even if only read it, it will be an experience. 2:- going to do some studying. dont know what yet , maybe a language or something like criminology. 3:- this is the one that might not be achievable and that is to go and watch the World Body Building Championships in London in August. This will depend on my health and my finances., there is one other big thing in 2017 and that is i turn 50 !! There were times i never thought I’d make it to 21 let alone 50? Happy New year to you Vana and to everyone !!
