Love or hate them — the New Year resolutions are an annual hot topic, lingering around conversations from December to mid-Jan. While some claim that they don’t need to wait until the beginning of the next year for a blank slate — it’s evident that the majority use it to jump-start a new positive habit or eliminate an old one.
In this article, we will review the New Year resolutions popular amongst Brits and Americans, analyze the numbers, and hopefully inspire someone to make a positive change! It could be reducing the number of daily coffees… Or changing your life altogether with MPAX!
Let’s dive in.
Top New Year resolutions and habits in maintaining them
Forbes Advisor’s research reveals that 30% of Brits plan New Year’s resolutions in 2024, up from 19% in 2023. Younger individuals lead, with 51% of those aged 18–34 making strong promises to themselves to set new standards in various areas of life.
Overall more than three in five people making resolutions (62%) have opted to make physical or dietary changes moving into 2024, while mental well-being also emerges as a significant focus. Approximately one-quarter (24%) of people said they wanted to reduce stress levels, while an equal proportion (22%) are committed to enhancing their emotional well-being.
Other resolutions reveal Brits’ priorities for the year: nearly one in five (19%) want to strengthen their relationships, and a similar proportion express ambitions to advance in their career goals (18%).
But who actually sticks to them?
For one in five individuals setting new year goals (21%), their resolutions are likely to last less than one month. The largest proportion, more than a third (34%), state that their most recent goal lasted between one and three months.
Brits who have successfully stuck to their New Year’s resolutions in the past claim to have typically maintained them for four and a half months, extending their commitment through to mid-May.
In comparison, 45% of Americans usually make New Year’s resolutions, and while 75% maintain their resolutions for one week, only 46% manage to stretch them until half a year.
Here’s America’s list of top resolutions…
- More family time
- Fall in love
- Help others
- Quit smoking
- Learn something exciting
- Stay fit and healthy
- Enjoy life to the fullest
- Spend less, save money
- Get organized
- Lose weight
How about aiming higher?
Of course, making at least one change in one of the areas mentioned above could make a significant positive change in life… But we purpose — why not to dig deeper, change your life from the core, and witness the rest of the positive impacts?
You see, at least half of the mentioned resolutions are related to stress, like smoking, not enjoying life to the fullest, overspending, not enough family time, and the negative effects on mental health. Burnout is one of the most common reasons for stress, and while people tend to get themselves overworked seemingly willing for career goals — if given the chance, some would rather pursue something else. For example, 70% of Deloitte research participants expressed a desire to leave their current jobs within the next two years to pursue their passions. This data underscores the growing importance of creative freedom and the need for platforms that support it.
