HOW TO REACH THE GOALS OF THE NEW YEAR - ACTUALITY

5 goals for 2015 and the apps to help you reach them

One of the activities that we are most committed to at the end of the year is to draw up the list of good intentions. As they say, new Year New Life!

But are we then concretely committed to reaching them or does the list remain unfulfilled? A study carried out by the American Research Institute Statistic Brain shows that only 8% of people actually achieve the goals they have set.

If you are within this small percentage, congratulations! Otherwise we certainly do not want to reproach you, but to give you some advice on how to reverse course and reach your goals.

With the help of Helpling, a platform that allows you to book home cleaning services conveniently online, we have identified five resources to help you realize the most common good intentions.

Goal 1: Eat better and / or lose weight

Not giving in to temptations is also difficult because often, due to lack of time, we do not dedicate ourselves sufficiently to cooking healthy and healthy foods. To help us there is Diet-to-go, literally a diet at home that allows you to book all meals of the day, for a week or a month, with the possibility of choosing between different menus (from vegetarian to zone diet).

Objective 2: Spend more time with your family

One of the activities that unfortunately takes away a lot of time for our loved ones is doing housework. This is why we recommend that you rely on Helpling, the cleaning specialist who allows you to book a professional and reliable cleaner starting from just € 10.90. Less time spent with the vacuum cleaner and mop, and more to spend with family and friends.

Objective 3: Go to the gym

As Google Trend shows, the word "gym" is among the most popular in January. Unfortunately, however, it is not always possible to keep the promise of doing more physical activity, which is why some apps come to our aid. Runtastic, for example, allows you to have a personal coach on your smartphone and provides precise measurement systems to keep an eye on your progress.

Goal 4: Quit smoking

About 30% of smokers report trying to quit without success. Of course it is advisable to contact specialists, but to start with a free program you can download one of the countless apps that help those who want to get rid of this vice. For example No smoking be hAPPy, promoted by the Veronesi Foundation and the Pfizer Foundation, through which you can also find the nearest anti-smoking center.

Objective 5: Exercise the mind

Improving your skills or deepening your knowledge is another very popular good purpose. To be able to achieve this goal, the network is a perfect tool: for example, Emagister offers both training courses and online degree and master courses. And there are also plenty of apps, such as Luminosity, which offer a wide range of games to keep your mind in action and give you the ability to monitor your progress.
