We will not let stress get to us

Stress has been a mood-killer for many millennial couples. Stress from work, stress from planning day-to-day lives, stress from a postponed wedding, and so on can be a hindrance for real. You must consciously decide to not let stress be a factor of distraction in both of your lives. Let 2021 be the year when you work towards having a healthier and more peaceful life.

We will spend more time together

We will appreciate the smaller things more

It is not always about bigger incidents. Even the smallest of actions and gestures sometimes matter the most. Be it the morning tea that the mister made before you woke up on a Sunday, or the fresh flowers the missus put on your study table - IT MATTERS! It is very important to appreciate these gestures and be vocal about it. In fact, take time out to tell each other how glad you are for the other person's efforts. Start with the resolution, make it a habit!

We will break a bad habit together

To err is human and of all the vices that one is made of, you can slowly get rid of some if not all. One small step at a time - start with one bad habit that each one of you has and work towards breaking this bad habit. It could be watching too much television, scrolling on your phone and so many other things on the list. Take a new year's couple resolution to get rid of at least one of your vices in 2021, but the more the merrier.

We will practice more positive conversation

Positive conversation plays a very healthy role in maintaining relationships. Be it a small chat over dinner, or a soothing conversation in the evening while you sip your tea - try to get into a habit of a lifestyle that involves more positive conversations between you two as a couple.

We will take up a "Project" together

A project does not necessarily have to be a huge one like building a house, it could be small ones like learning baking together or going to wine and painting classes. Take up a project together to explore new opportunities and nothing better than doing it together.

New Year's resolutions do not have to be your 5-year plans. They can be small steps - because it matters. Make sure to jot down your new year's resolutions and maybe frame it and stick it on your bedroom wall or your fridge door. Follow it as much as your lifestyle and time allow and see your relationship change for good!
