Making 2020 THE Year: New Year's Resolutions

Hey Guys, Happy New Year!! In honor of the new year and new decade, I’m going to be talking about my new years’ resolutions or what I plan on doing to make 2020 my year.

When I think of a new year I think of a fresh start, a new page. It’s a great opportunity to put everything behind us and create a new mindset for ourselves. There are many things that I would like to work on not only this year but for the rest of the decade. One of them being quitting bad habits such as; procrastination, swearing, eating unhealthy, having a bad sleep schedule, the list could go on. We acquire all these bad habits with the repetition of behavior. When a person keeps doing something over and over certain neural pathways are activated in our brains and it becomes much easier for the brain to do the same thing again. To try to break these bad habits just try not doing them anymore. I know sounds simple, but when you really have to commit it becomes pretty tricky. But what I’m trying to say is try going to sleep early that one night or come home and immediately start your homework. The same thing will happen to your brain as when you acquired bad habits, it will become much easier for your brain to do the same thing again.

Now that I’ve established what bad habits or negative things I do, I want to focus on my other resolution which is to be more positive. I feel that many of us don’t appreciate the simple things in life like, having a roof over our heads, having drinking water, our friends and family, our health, or just simply being alive. 2019 really opened my eyes to how much I take these things for granted, I never realized how hard my life would be without these things. In 2020 I want to make sure that I am thankful for everyone and everything I have and work on myself to make sure that I am the best version of myself that I could be.

Take my poll!

Should College Athletes Get Paid?

Should College Athletes Get Paid? This is an ongoing and never-ending argument. Many people have different opinions, I believe that college athletes should not get paid by the NCAA. The NCAA brings in about 1 billion dollars yearly. Many people believe that some of that money should go towards paying College Athletes, and I disagree. College athletes gain many things from playing in the NCAA. They are provided with the best training and practice facilities, the best trainers and coaches, gift bags with very expensive gifts, newer housing, and even sometimes full-ride scholarships. Colleges get the best training and practice facilities that money can buy. College football teams try to equip their programs with the latest and greatest upgrades, the greatest example is the University of Alabama's facilities. They house 37,000-square-feet, $9 million weight room, Tuscaloosa offers everything and more a player needs to succeed. They even have a few waterfalls in the hydrot...
