What's the best New Year's resolution for 2025?

What's the best New Year's resolution for 2025?

With only 10 days before the end of 2024, many are beginning to think about resolutions for 2025. Invariably, in recent decades, most New Year's resolutions primarily fall in one of two categories: health and wealth. That is good. However, if you think about it, the top resolution every year should be improving safety. 

Typical examples of health related resolutions include losing weight, eating better, meditating, and reducing social media use. Examples on the financial side include saving more, getting another job, earning more, and investing. All that is good and well. However, improving safety practices can be significantly more important and impactful to your health and wealth than all those typical resolutions combined. 

Safey First 

Most of us want better health and more money. That's because we associated those with the possibility of living for longer and living better. At the end of every year we look forward to having better health and financial outcomes in the next year. That makes perfect sense. What we often overlook is the oversized impact that a safety mishap can have in health and wealth, and our ability to live long and well. 

In a split of a second, any one of us can can a safety mishap or "accident" that can jeopardize our health and wealth. n most cases, accidents could have been avoided with better safety practices. Forensic reviews of most accidents reveal that either the accidents or some of their consequences could have been avoided or mitigated with better safety precautions and practices. Even in the cases of natural disasters and other "acts of God", safety precautions such as adequate emergence preparedness could have improved outcomes.

Cultivating safety as a habit can be more impactful to your health and wealth than all healthy living and money-making habits combined. In theory, a person can smoke, eat junk food, be a couch potato, etc, for decades. However, even the healthiest and wealthiest can lose everything in a second due to a safety mishap. An accident can kill, incapacitate, or ruin anyone in a heartbeat. Sounds heart-breaking but it's true.  

Think about it. If you are smart, you get the point. Improving safety, including emergency preparedness, should be your #1 New Year's resolution for 2025. Safety, or lack thereof, can have an oversized impact on everything else in your life, including the health and wealth that you care so deeply about. 

How can you improve your safety? Well, find out. Make that your New Year's resolution. The information is out there. What you needed was someone to make you think about it so that you can take action. Every daily activity from chewing to walking, to riding and driving, can be done in a safer manner. Safety tips and methods are almost endless. Safety is a continuum. Your resolution can be to continuously improve on that continuum. 

Below is a a list of the most common New Year's resolutions in ranking order. 

  1. Have more money (earn more, reduce debt, save more)
  2. Lose weight (exercise more, eat better)
  3. Reduce stress (meditate, sleep better) 
  4. Quit bad habits (smoke and drink less)
  5. Spend more time with family and friends
  6. Travel
  7. Learn a new skill or hobby

Note that the one in the bottom now for the masses, learning a new skill or hobby, could be the one on top of your list, making it specifically about learning more about safety and making the Safety First attitude your new skill and hobby in 2025.

Will Tariffs Reduce the National Debt?

Creatix / June 30, 2025 The U.S. national debt has surpassed $34.7 trillion , and the cost of servicing that debt— just the interest payments—has soared to over $1 trillion annually as of mid-2025. This marks a historic shift: we now spend more just paying interest on the National debt than on defense, Medicare, or any single discretionary program. Economists warn that unless fiscal policy changes, interest costs will crowd out critical investments in infrastructure, education, and innovation, deepening the structural debt burden for future generations. From Osama to MAGA OBBA: the path to U.S. bankruptcy. Osama Bin Laden "succeeded" in putting us in a path to bankruptcy. The U.S. national debt began to increase dramatically after 9/11, marking a sharp departure from the budget surpluses of the late 1990s. In response to the terrorist attacks, the U.S. launched costly wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, while also implementing sweeping tax cuts under the Bush administration. These...

Chinese AI Robots Everywhere By the 2050s: Are you Ready?

Creatix / November 8, 2026 AI Robots Everywhere by the 2050s: Are You Ready? By the 2050s , artificial intelligence and robotics could merge into the most transformative household revolution since electricity. Analysts forecast trillions in market value for humanoid and service robots, and billions of units operating globally. The question isn’t if they’ll be everywhere—it’s whether we’re ready for it. The 2050s Robot Boom By mid-century, expect AI robots to clean, cook, carry, and even care. Thanks to exponential progress in AI reasoning, computer vision, and robotics hardware , the machines we see today in factories or labs will become accessible home companions. Costs will plummet as production scales, while software will learn from vast shared data networks—meaning every robot gets smarter as one learns. Economic studies suggest the global humanoid-robot market could exceed $5 trillion by 2050 , transforming domestic life, eldercare, and even education. What smartphones did f...

When will the Tesla bubble burst?

December 11, 2024 When will the Tesla bubble burst?  We don't know Fools rush in. It's impossible to know exactly when the Tesla bubble will finally burst. Unfortunately for us at Creatix, we began shorting Tesla too soon. We are down almost 40% on our position as of today. We are not fooling ourselves thinking that we were ever make money on the short position. We truly doubt that Tesla can go down 40% any time soon.  We would love to add to the short position, but it would exceed our $3,000 limit on the stupid bets that we do for fun. We're not Mr. Beast. We have a very limited budget for ridiculousness. We would love to short Tesla tomorrow morning at the ridiculous share price of $424. Tesla is trading at an incredible 116 times earnings, which gives Tesla a market capitalization of $1.32 Trillion. Elon Musk added today $13.4 billion to his fortune. Yes, $13 billion in one day. Yesterday, he had added $11 billion. Yes, that's $24 billion in 2 days.  Six months ago, ...
