Cutting Out the Bad and Bringing in the Good With Cutting Boards USA

It's hard to get started every New Year's Day. We've all got goals, dreams, and expectations, but sometimes it's just hard to make them come true. It takes diligence, perseverance and quality- like our sturdy wood cutting boards or butcher blocks.

We've compiled a list of the top ten New Year's Day resolutions that we usually see here at Cutting Board USA:

10. Spend more time with family and friends

In the hustle and bustle of life, it's easy to forget who really matters. Over half of all Americans wish they could spend more time with their family, so take time to meet up with your favourite people and have a great time.

9. Feel more fit and get more exercise

Everyone wants to get to the gym, get their body toned, and feel great again, but it's hard with a busy schedule. Our cutting boards here at Cutting Boards USA (believe it or not) provide a great source of exercise when you're cutting up all your fruits and veggies this year. You're guaranteed to build shoulder muscles.

8. Lose weight

Two-thirds of all Americans are obese or overweight, meaning that your food plan is more important than ever. Eat more greens and veggies (cut them up into bite sized snacks that you've cut with our cutting boards) for family lunches to eliminate excess snacking.

7. Quit smoking

Smoking is a pretty unhealthy habit. On average, most smokers try to quit four times before they quit for good.

6. Do more with your life

Many people just want to enjoy life more! Our cutting boards are great for trying new recipes, serving accessory to make a special dinner for that special person, or making cocktails! It doesn't take much too really spice up your life!

5. Lay off the drinking

It's time to change! If you want to kick the habit, try and do it gradually. It's easier if you pick up a hobby, like exercising.

4. Eliminate debt

Millions of Americans make this agenda every single year. Start small, planning payments. It takes time to really make a difference.

3. Learn new things

Try picking up a new book, a hobby, or go to a program at your local community center. It's fulfilling to fill your brain as well as your stomach.

2. Help more people

It's easy to get out there and help people where they need it most- volunteer your time at a local shelter.

1. Organize life

Getting organized is one of the most reasonable goals on this list. Make a planner and start sticking to it!
