    4 Ways to Keep Your New Year Resolutions (Happy 2020!)

    January 2, 2020

    Reading Time: 3 Minutes Happy New Year everyone! It’s the beginning of a brand new decade. Exciting stuff! How was your New Year celebrations like? We had a grand old time here in old Sydney town as MrsFrugalSamurai and I spent it with our family, watching the fireworks as they herald in 2020. Importantly, the start of each new year brings with it new year’s resolutions. If you’re like me, resolutions typically involve a more active approach to health and fitness, improved career/finances and learning new things for personal and professional development.

It was a fairly reflective and raw piece, he’s achieved a lot, said a lot, done a lot – but you know I get the feeling that he’s not satisfied a lot.
