A Fresh Start: Why the Time Change Is the Perfect Moment to Reset Your Resolutions

Time Change Graphic

Resolutions aren’t just about January 1st. They’re about fresh starts, new habits, and setting intentions for a better year ahead. But if your New Year’s resolutions didn’t quite stick, don’t worry—you’re not alone. And more importantly, you don’t have to wait until next year to try again.

The History of Resolutions: A Tradition of Renewal

Resolutions date back over 4,000 years to the Babylonians, who made promises to the gods to earn favor for the year ahead. The Romans continued the tradition, offering vows of self-improvement to Janus, the god of beginnings and transitions (and the namesake of January). Fast forward to today, and resolutions still symbolize fresh starts—whether it’s eating better, saving money, or spending more time with family.

But let’s be honest—life gets busy, and many resolutions fade fast. By mid-February, over 80% of people have already abandoned their goals. But here’s the good news: it’s never too late to start again.

Why the Time Change is the Perfect Reset Button

With the recent time change, our schedules naturally shift. Longer days bring new energy and motivation, making it the perfect moment to reset and refocus. Whether you’re reviving your January resolutions or creating new ones, this is your chance to simplify, save, and build habits that actually fit your life.

Resolutions Worth Resetting

If your original resolutions didn’t stick, or you’re looking for new ways to improve your daily routine, consider:

  • Saving Money on Food – Cutting back on takeout and meal delivery fees.
  • Eating Healthier – Making home-cooked meals a priority.
  • Simplifying Your Routine – Finding ways to spend less time in the kitchen while still eating well.
  • Making Time for Family & Friends – Sitting down for meals together without the stress of cooking from scratch.
