Creating New Year’s Resolutions that Last
05.01.2024 - 13:25 / hgic.clemson.edu
Ah, New Year’s resolutions. Maybe they motivate you each year, or maybe you think, “Why bother?”. Studies show that by the end of January, over 40% of those who made resolutions at the start of the new year quit. There are many reasons for backing out on a new goal- life changes, unrealistic expectations, and lack of accountability, just to name a few. However, following a few simple strategies when creating and implementing resolutions can make you more likely to achieve your goals this New Year.
The first step in creating your resolution is thinking about what you’d like to change in great detail. Instead of making your goal to lose a certain amount of weight, consider what actions you can take to achieve that change. For example, this could be by adding 20 minutes of walking into your daily routine or eating healthier by adding a serving of vegetables at each meal. You also want to make sure that your goal is realistic to set yourself up for success. Does committing to 20 minutes of walking every day or a veggie at each meal seem unrealistic? Then, start off smaller with a 20-minute walk 3 times per week or a serving of vegetables with just dinner each day.
Once you’ve nailed down your goal, think about the tools you will need to be successful. You may need certain exercise equipment, workout clothing, or foods to help you reach your new goal. Also, think through any roadblocks that could derail your path and come up with an alternative plan. Bad weather may discourage you from going outside to exercise, so instead, think of all your indoor exercise options, like going to the gym or an at-home exercise video. If healthy eating is your focus, keep tempting foods out of the house or make them less accessible in your

My Secateurs are just like new!
I’m sure you can imagine that I go through secateurs like anything. Not because I loose them but because I use them all day, every day in all sorts of weather and they just stop working eventually and you can’t get them repaired. If I’m lucky they’ll last 6-9 months.

Gardens to visit in New South Wales and Queensland, Australia
Last September my husband and I fulfilled a long-held dream of visiting Australia, when we decided to take a road trip from Brisbane to Sydney. When you look at the map, our trip marks only a tiny slice of this massive country, but we knew we wanted to take it slowly and really soak up the countryside and enjoy the places we did have time to see.

Is creating a meadow garden really worth the hassle?
For the last twenty years we’ve seen the fashion for creating meadows explode. Once the preserve of the countryside where they are best defined as ‘pieces of grass-covered land mown for hay’, they now adorn our cities, parks, estates and private gardens. There is a sort of irony here in that as historic, wild, flora-rich meadows are in decline rurally, due to agriculture, development and climate change, we are frenetically creating them elsewhere.

New year gardening: ‘It feels like everything is shifting’
There are lots of words that Irish gardeners could use to sum up the year that was 2023. “Wet” is certainly high on the list, given the record levels of rainfall experienced in most parts of the country from late summer onwards as well as the badly waterlogged state of many soils.
