This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at BC chapter and does not reflect the views of Her Campus.

While most resolutions revolve around getting in shape or eating healthier, not all of them have to be so practical. A new year can and should include whatever you want, especially the things that can brighten your day. Try one of these or all twenty and see what happens!

1.  Try a new hobby

2.  Switch your workout class

3.  Create a new playlist

4.  Take a class outside of your major

5.  Go tech-free for part of the day

6.  Save up and treat yourself

7.  Take the stairs

8.  Organize your bedroom

9.  Volunteer

10.  Read a book for enjoyment

11.  Treat someone to lunch or dinner

12.  Buy a new nail polish

13.  Write a letter to someone you love

14.  Compliment someone

15.  Drink more water

16.  Step out of your comfort zone

17.  Enjoy each day

18.  Be happy

 

19.  Write down something that you’re grateful for each day

20.  Smile more

Just maybe, one of these resolutions will get your year off to a great start.
