A Fresh Start: Resolution Planning Day at Melody Living Independent Senior Living Community

As the New Year approaches, it's the perfect time to reflect on the past and set goals for the future. At Melody Living in Lake in the Hills, we embrace Resolution Planning Day as an opportunity for our residents to create meaningful goals and set the stage for an enriching year ahead.
 
The first step to creating your New Year’s resolutions is to ensure they are achievable. Creating attainable goals can help inspire motivation and increase your chances of checking each resolution off your list.

​Start with small, achievable goals that can be built upon over time. Say your goal is to be walking 10,000 steps every day by the end of the year, start with a smaller more achievable goal of walking 2,500 steps every other day. This can lead to a sense of accomplishment and motivation to set more challenging resolutions.
