20 New Year's resolutions that you can easily keep

  • 4 min read

There are two kinds of people, people with good intentions and people who don't do it. But left or right, good intentions always come up with a new year. Especially after a year like 2021, it's not that crazy to introduce a few simple good habits.

TIP : Don't make it too difficult for yourself, the circumstances are a bit less easy than usual. That's why here's a list of 20 potential good intentions from which you can probably get a few for a beautiful 2022.

1 - Drink more water - Because it's very easy and healthy! Also read 5 smart tips to drink more water

2 - Try something new every month - That could be bungee jumping, learning to surf, but also a new taste of beer or a different color of hair... Read also Finding magic outside your comfort zone - 10 tips

3 - Ensure balance in your digital life
- Do the Happlify Digital Detox this year and you will be covered for a whole year with help and great tips

4 - Support of local shops and restaurants
- You will often find the most beautiful treasures there, just like with the smaller webshops ! And partly because of your purchase, you maintain that beauty and not everything becomes one and the same

5-Choose a healthier lifestyle - That doesn't have to be difficult either!! Just providing a lot more energy is also very nice, read here: 3 Simple tips to start your day with a lot of energy


6 - Go for those 10,000 footsteps
- Or at least for more footsteps. Get some fresh air in between. Take a bike or walk if you don't have to go far somewhere, that already makes a big difference on a daily basis

7 - Start a capsule wardrobe
- What is a capsule wardrobe? A capsule wardrobe is a selection of your most favorite and essential pieces of clothing that lasts for a season. Officially, a capsule wardrobe consists of 37 items that hang in your closet for 3 months.

8 - Start with your happiness manual - That's very easy with Happlify your life - €20

9 - Send real birthday cards - Beautiful cards can be found here, among others

10 - Clean up your house thoroughly - A tidy house ensures a tidy head. Do you like to look ahead? Then read: Making your home spring proof in 5 steps


11 - Make photo books
- Start easy with a sweet little book likethis one from Hema - €3.50

12 - Hang happy memories
- Nothing is as nice as pictures of beautiful memories and lovely people around you. Use a nice changing rack likethis one from Fonq

13 - Keep in touch - Speaking of lovely people, keep those people close with contact as well. You don't have to show up every week, but a small message, card or occasional phone call can do no harm to stay in each other's perception.

14 - Start a new hobby
- How about dots? You can easily learn that online at Stipstijl (recommended).

15 - Cook at least one new dish every week
- That's super easy with Hello Fresh, a must if you want to discover new meals every week! Greek salad with chicken thigh is one of my favorite Hello Fresh recipes.


16 - Read more books - Discover new, fun books here

17 - Drink less alcohol - This is a good resolution for so many reasons.

18 - Always take the stairs
- In addition to an escalator you will often find a 'real staircase' and an elevator often has such a thing. Take yourself forever to choose the exhausting variant and voila!

19 - Invest in a good sports outfit
- Because that motivates BIG time, I can assure you. Also have a look here for sports & yoga tips .

20 - Start keeping plants - Trust me, once you start doing that with attention, you won't be able to stop. In addition, plants provide more oxygen in the house. Start small with a nice plant from Bloompost, for example! This is Stippie (€21.95)

Stippie - Begonia maculata | BloomPost

And? Surely there is something in between, right?
