Beauty New Year Resolution

Another year has past and still here we are wondering what happened. After every fireworks display we write down in a piece of paper all the things we dream of changing including career change, family issue's, and the most often beauty resolutions.

The problem with most resolution I suppose is they are too unrealistic. Or maybe if not the goal is so longshot that its almost impossible to aim for it. The best way to handle most problems is to break them down into short term goals. Do them on a daily basis until such time you develop a habit and eventually incorporate them to your busy lives.

Really we have to take time to be beautiful. Like what the Merovinger in the Matrix Movie said, "HOW COULD YOU HAVE TIME IF YOU DONT TAKE TIME."

I made few list of small goals you can do when it comes to beauty and eventually I hope you follow the next step to becoming more beautiful. Again the key is taking the baby steps and developing the habit. Just enough habit will suffice for it to sink in and become a routine. Think of it as something to be proud off when another year ends.

1. Diet - it cannot be more tedious than anything. A its hard to manage our meals obviously. One of the surefire way to lose weight is to eat more raw fiber like veggies and fruits.

Baby step : start eating a fruit or a vegetable in a day in the first week. Let it be your most favorite fruit. If you find its getting tedious replace it with another fiber rich food on the second week of your diet. Your goal is to have a piece of fiber to jumpstart your losing weight goal till its a habit eating the fruit or the veggie

Bigger Goal : after you get used on eating a fruit or veggie a day. Try adding another serving the week after. What we need to achieve is everytime you get the habit of eating a piece of fruit a day you add ann additional serving of fiber. Of course make sure their is variety. Lets say you only eat banana's , after a week or two add a cup of brocolli to your daily meals. Do this until such time you are already eating 8 to 10 servings of veggies and fruits a day. By the time you are used to the diet you could start limiting the red meat intake, the procedure wont be so hard a discipline cause its already a part of you.

2. Exercising - A lot of people dont find time of the day to incorporate something that would make them sweat a little. Just follow the pattern I set below and I'm sure you will force yourself to exercise

Baby Step : After you wake up try doing at least 5 minutes of simple exercise like bending, swaying your hips, or jogging in place. It maybe not enough to get you to sweat but the point is to stop you from becoming a complete potato couch even for a few moments of your life. Do an exercise routine that would not bore you. This way you continously exercise. The next week try thinking of another set of exercise but this time increase the frequency and add a bit more variety.

Bigger Goal : Week after week of exercising try adding 5 more minutes of your time after waking up or before going to bed to your exercise routine. Until such time you are already exercising for an hour a day. Make sure to involve yourself in an activity that you enjoy so you would keep on doing it. Our goal here is for you to sweat out till such time you crave for a more challenging sport or maybe enrol in a gym to hit a target of losing more weight. People who go for sport are mentally inclined to strive better in their chosen field.

3. Personal Hygiene - like my two previous example Im trying to develop a habit for you to enhance whatever asset you are endowed. But lets begin on the less endowed parts of your body lets say your feet.

Baby Steps : Plan on what are the basic needs of your feet if it doesnt look its best. To be hygienic it needs a good set of nail cutters so you could trim it regularlly to avoid dirt on getting inserted between the nails to cause a nauseating smell. Next week buy a bottle of foot powder to help it not to get sweaty. A week after that you could buy a big jar of footscrub tube so you could scrub the dead skin cells making the soles more fresh. The list goes on till your feet are pampered.

Bigger Goal : The goal is to at least do something good to one of your body part on a regular interval then move to another. After you succeeded in making your feet "kiss worthy for the lips" you could plan on adding other beauty goals for your face or for your tummy or whatever part of your body that needs helping. But be sure to start on the baby steps so you wont abandon the whole project. Just keep on adding other routine on top of the other and eventually before the year ends you could hardly recognize your old self :D

GOODLUCK AND I HOPE THIS WOULD JUMPSTART YOUR BEAUTIFUL NEW YEAR!!!!
