Your 2008 New Years Resolutions

It’s that time of year again – Christmas is looming and before you know it, will be over and done with for another year. Like many of us, you’ll probably make some new years resolutions for 2008 – perhaps to lose weight, stop smoking, spend more time with the family or to learn a new skill.

Whatever your new years resolutions may be, we all know how hard they are to stick to!

A couple of weeks into January and even the most dedicated of us slip back into our old ways and those resolutions go out of the window. It’s not easy to keep to your plans once the routines of our day to day lives take over.

For 2008, why not make a resolution to stick to your resolutions? If you are easily distracted, why not get yourself a customised rubber wristband with a special word or phrase that will remind you of your resolution? It could really help, as wearing the band helps to re-inforce the message (to yourself!) in moments of weakness.

Imagine you’re struggling to lose weight and have made a New Years resolution to eat less – you could get yourself a wristband saying “size 8 jeans” or “bikini”! Whatever it is that inspires you to make the resolution in the first place will be the most effective encouragement when temptation sets in. Your message can be totally personal to you – choose the words you know will make you think twice before giving in to weakness!

You could even join together with friends or workmates – get matching wristbands for each person sharing the resolution. Fear of letting others down is a great motivator!

We hope you stick to your 2008 New Years resolutions, whatever they are, and would love to hear from you if you use wristbands to help you on your way.

rubber wristbands – not just a passing craze

Rubber wristbands have been around for a while now, and those who thought that these bright silicone bands were a passing fad have been proved wrong.

Rubber (silicone) wristbands first came to the world’s attention when the Lance Armstrong foundation chose bright yellow bands to raise awareness of, and funds for, his cancer charity. Yellow wristbands were everywhere! Before long, other charities and organisations realised the potential of rubber wristbands as fundraising and promotional items.

These days there’s a whole host of charity wristbands out there, and what started as a fashion trend has become a regular accessory for people from all walks of life.

If you are a fundraiser looking for new ideas to spread your message and raise funds for your good cause, you might want to consider your own silicone wristband campaign – choose your colour, then customise as required with your name or slogan – or both!
