The First Ten Resolutions for 2011

I am posting the first 10 out of 30 New Years Resolutions posted on Hunch Website. These are great and very easy for everyone to do!

1. Learn something new every day. Have you vowed to make this year the year to learn something new? Perhaps you are considering a career change, want to learn a new language, or just how to ... Learn more


2. Enjoy Life! Given the hectic, stressful lifestyles of millions of Americans, it is no wonder that "enjoying life more" has become a popular resolution in recent years. It's an important step to a happier and healthier you! Consider one of Pittsburgh's holistic healing centers for products designed to bring balance to your body, mind and soul. Or just get out and try something new! Take up a new hobby or try your hand at skiing. Go to a theater performance, or head to the locals. Water is essential to good health, yet needs vary by individual. These guidelines can help ensure you drink enough fluids.

3. Drink more Water! How much water should you drink each day? A simple question with no easy answers. Studies have produced varying recommendations over the years, but in truth, your water needs depend on many factors, including your health, how active you are and where you live. Though no single formula fits everyone, knowing more about your body's need for fluids will help you estimate how much water to drink each day.

4. Be Healthy! Planned dieting teamed with the regular exercising is the key to shed those extra calories and to be in perfect health throughout the year. Take the New Year resolution to be healthy and feel the difference of glowing health.

5. Simplify! Simple living (also referred to as voluntary simplicity) is a lifestyle characterized by minimizing the "more is better" pursuit of wealth and consumption. Adherents may choose simple living for a variety of personal reasons, such as spirituality, health, increase in 'quality time' for family and friends, reducing their personal ecological footprint, stress reduction, personal taste or frugality. E. F. Schumacher summarized it by saying, "Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage - to move in the opposite direction."[cite this quote] more on en.wikipedia.org

6. Help Others! A popular, non-selfish New Year's resolution, volunteerism can take many forms. Whether you choose to spend time helping out at your local library, mentoring a child, or building a house, there are many nonprofit volunteer organizations that could really use your help. Maybe you can at least find it in you to donate the furniture, clothing and other household items that you no longer need, rather than leaving them out by the curb.

7. More Sleep! Give your body the time it needs to rest and recover. Find out how much do you need at more on hunch.com.

8. Be a better Human Being! If enough people chose to be better human beings society would be bettered. While lofty nebulous goals are more unattainable, decide how you would behave if you were already a better human being, then take small steps to reach that vision. Choose anything: be nicer to your fellow man, help society flourish, treat others with respect and kindness first, do more to help the environment. It's up to you!

9. Take more pictures! Life is passing you by. Wouldn't it be nice to preserve some memories of the every day? With today's digital cameras, camera phones, and online storage it's easier than ever to capture moments and share them with others.

10. Fight Procrastination! Procrastination is the bane of people everywhere and admonitions to "Just do it!" aren't enough to help. Let this year be the year you follow a real plan to stop putting off things. Use Hunch or other helpful resources to choose the best way for you to fight your procrastination habit!
