Take a Look into Other Students’ Resolutions<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Max Straub<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

New Year’s Resolutions are an important part of the New Year. Many people often take drastic approaches and set unrealistic goals which is part of the reason why they often do not go as planned. Some Titans wanted to share their goals for 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sophomore Amari Hangrove: \u201cLearn how to make my own decisions\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sophomore Will Rosenfeld: \u201cTo do better in school, study more, do more homework\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Senior Deondre Keeler: \u201cGet all passing grades\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Senior Lul Cardo: \u201cNew Year, New Me, if you know you know\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Junior Vincent Mulrooney: \u201cGetting better at Physics\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sophomore Brandon Brown: \u201cStop procrastinating…Get binders and stay organized so I can be eligible for the football team\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Junior Mahlet Abu: \u201cI want to be a better version of myself\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Junior Josh Peterson: \u201cI want to be as healthy as possible for track….and get more sleep\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Physical Education teacher and Head Driver’s Education instructor Brett Eanes: \u201cI want to join the gym across the street and I want to get back on track.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sophomore Henok Amanuel: \u201cI want to get my money up and get a job\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sophomore Mikel Smith: \u201cI want to get my grades up.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many new year’s resolutions fail quite early into the year. Resolutions often fail because people rush into them and often take a \u201cwhat\u201d instead of \u201cwhy\u201d approach. A study by Richard Wiseman of Bristol England says that out of the 3000 people he surveyed, 88 percent failed at sticking with their resolutions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are looking to fall into the 12 percent who do achieve their goals this New Years, here are some helpful tips below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, avoid using loose terms. If you are looking to lose weight hit your goals, let\u2019s say \u201cI want to lose one pound a week for five weeks.\u201d Instead of saying \u201cI want to lose weight fast\u201d. You need to be realistic about the things you can do in a short amount of time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also it is often best to not try to quit things cold turkey, meaning drop the habit without easing out of it. This is often very hard to do and often requires multiple tries and has a very low success rate. Although it varies based on the things you are trying to stop doing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get out there Titans and try to change your life for the better; you got this!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
