Not sure what your new year's resolutions should be? Take inspiration from these 7 celebrities who shared their goals and aspirations:
1. Kelly Clarkson. We all overindulge over the festive season and gaining some weight is normal, even for Kelly Clarkson who is determined to shed those extra pounds. "To the person that lost weight over the holidays.... Don’t worry, I found it and I will get it back to you starting January 1st," she wrote in a recent tweet.
2. Meghan Markle. The Duchess of Sussex’s goals are all centered around personal development. "My New Year’s resolution is to leave room for magic," she said, according to SheKnows. "To make my plans, and be okay if they sometimes break. To set my goals, but to be open to change."
3. Kourtney Kardashian. Stepping back from social media seems almost impossible for a Kardashian but it has not stopped Kourtney from trying. She vowed in 2015 to use her phone less and "be more in the moment," SheKnows noted. Sometimes celebrities make new year's resolution that we could all try to follow.
4. John Mayer. It is easy to get sucked into the news, and all the hype surrounding current events, but John Mayer plans to be more conscious about browsing the headlines. "When reading news, take in only what happened, not the think space around what happened," he said of his new year's resolution, according to Thrive Global. "Do this only once for each incident."
5. Britney Spears. A new year means a new self- or at least for Britney Spears, who previously shared her resolutions. "I would like to stop worrying so much, because I worry all the time," she said, according to SheKnows. "And to learn how to be happier, just in general. I have to learn to take things not so seriously. And to stop biting my nails!"
6. Demi Lovato. In 2018, Demi Lovato was hospitalized after suffering a drug overdose. Now she is celebrating her sobriety and vowed to live in gratitude. "So grateful for the lessons I’ve learned this year," she said, according to Thrive Global. "I will never take another day in life for granted, even the bad ones."
7. Selena Gomez. Most of us would like to lead healthy lifestyles and this is no different for Selena Gomez, who previously said her goal was to get fitter and healthier, according to Zimbio.
