The New Year’s resolution craze has always been about going big or going home, but it looks like a major pivot is in the air for 2024. A cool 55% of folks surveyed are ditching the hefty pledges and, instead, channelling their inner zen masters with general, more approachable goals. Yeah, you heard right: This year’s unsung hero of resolutions is all about ‘being more present,’ and let’s be honest, it has a nice ring to it—kinda makes you want to breathe deeper and actually hear the birds chirp.
Could it be that after years of chasing tail with ambitious resolutions, we’re settling into the comfort of attainable aspirations? Or maybe we’re just tired of failing publicly when February hits, and those gym shoes are still sparkling new. Either way, this new trend is giving ‘less is more’ a whole new dimension. And if it sticks, maybe we’ll all come out of 2024 feeling a little lighter, a little happier, and—let’s dare to dream—a little less glued to our smartphones.
