The History of New Years Resolutions

The History of New Year’s Resolutions Hindsight is 20/20, so let's begin 2020 by taking a look back at one of our favorite New Year's articles. If you're planning to make a New Year's resolution for 2020, here's some context behind the traditionand maybe some inspiration too. If resolutions have been around for over 4,000 years, can you make yours last more than a couple of months? Now that 2018 is here, you may be thinking about your own history of making New Years resolutionspromises to exercise more often, or to study more regularly. Maybe you lived up to these promises in 2017, or maybe you didnt. But have you ever wondered why we make New Years resolutions in the first place? Consider the history that surrounds this annual tradition: [RELATED: 10 Study Habits to Avoid] The origins of the New Years resolution You may be surprised to learn that the core concept behind New Years resolutions has existed for at least 4,000 years. The ancient Babylonians celebrated the new year with Akitu, a festival that included promises to the gods to repay debts or return items they borrowed. It took place in March, not January, because the new year was tied to the planting of spring crops. However, the idea of starting the year off on the right foot is an echo of our modern tradition. New Years resolutions and the Romans January 1 was decreed the start of the new year by Julius Caesar in ancient Roman times, and the Romans also promised good behavior in the coming year. This practice was linked to the Roman god Janus, who was associated with beginnings, endings, doorways, and transitions. The month of January was named after him, and he was represented as a two-faced god who looked back to the past year and ahead to the next. New Years resolutions and watch night services Another historic tradition related to New Years resolutions is the watch night servicea Christian church service typically held on New Years Eve or New Years Day. John Wesley, the founder of the Methodist faith, began the tradition of holding these services in the 1700s, in the belief that Methodists should reaffirm their covenant with God each year. Watch night services included prayers, song, and self-reflection, and similar services are still held today. [RELATED: The Importance of Self-Reflection: How to End the Year on a Positive Note] The terminology of New Years resolutions As discussed above, the concept of promising better behavior in a new year has existed for centuries, but the current terminology is a more recent development. The first recorded use of the phrase new year resolutions was in a newspaper article from 1813, according to Merriam-Webster. The article noted that there are many people accustomed to receive injunctions of new year resolutions, who will sin all the month of December, with a serious determination of beginning the new year with new resolutions and new behaviour... (Sound familiar?) By this point, its clear that the practice of these annual promises was becoming common enough that people would understand the above reference. Since then, the practice has only become more popular. A recent poll suggests roughly 44% of Americans plan to make changes in 2018. Although few people seem to completely succeed in the long term with their New Years resolutions, about two-thirds of those who made a 2017 resolution said they kept at least part of their promise.

Peter Matthew Bauer of The Walkmen Talks Living Room Shows and Liberation!

Peter Matthew Bauer of The Walkmen Talks Living Room Shows and Liberation! Megan L. Growing up on indie rock, The Walkmen were among my favorite bands in high school and college. Though they are now on extreme hiatus, members of the band continue to make great music that I can love as an adult too. The bands bassist Peter Matthew Bauer embarked on a solo career with his 2014 album Liberation!, an album that pairs spiritual themes and literary references with catchy rock hooks and psychedelic vibes. I got the chance to talk with Bauer about his musical background, his solo career, and his favorite Latin American authors. TL: How did you get into playing music? PMB: I started taking guitar lessons when I was a kid from a guy in Washington DC who was sort of the local guitar teacher of choice. I did that for a couple years. I had a friend who was an older kid who had a band, so I wanted to be like them. And now youre a guy who a lot of people would want to be like, with your time in The Walkmen and your incredible solo record.  Whats it been like for you getting out on your own and writing songs? Its a lot of fun. Its great! Its a little lonely I guess. Its a lot more on you when its your own name and youre doing everything. That makes it fun. One of the things I really love about your record is how you incorporate some Eastern sounds in your music, a little reminiscent of George Harrison and the Beatles but theres also something really modern and cool about how youve done it. Did you have a kind of guiding philosophy around how you used those elements? I was writing these songs about how I grew up, so I thought if I could figure out ways to use slightly Indian sounding things in a couple spots, without it sounding kinda hacky, it would be fun, sort of funny. I had a harmonium laying around the house and I liked the sound of it, and that was the idea. Theres not that much of it that was meant to be Indian, its just sort of stuff I had. Yeah, its a really light touch with that instrumentation but its really cool. One of my favorite songs on the record is Latin American Ficciones. Is that a reference to any specific author? Yeah, its a reference to Jorge Luis Borges, and Roberto Bolaño also. I think I  just changed it to Ficciones because  I had a bad mix of it when it was called Latin American Fiction. [Laughs]. Its a dumb joke. Its sort of a song from when I was figuring out how to sing and what I was going to sing about, and I think both of those writers have meant a lot to me in terms of how strong their voices are. As much as people think of them, Borges especially, with intricate plots and being this erudite fella, really hes bluffing his way through the whole thing and its just his personality. Its himself coming through whatever hes talking about that he thinks is interesting. He could write a movie review and youd know who it is. I think thats the sign of a really great writer or artist or whatever. They can be doing anything and you can tell its that person. And I think its also very anti-psychological too, which I think is nice. Its not like hes whining or self-referential, which I think is a happy way to be. In songwriting, a lot of people think its about trying to exorcise these psychological problems or something like that, and I dont think thats the case. Even maybe people who think thats what theyre doing arent necessarily doing that, because that  isnt really whats universal. So it sounds like for you songwriting is more about the experience and finding a way to transmit something universal. A lot of the songs also reference spirituality, from Hinduism to Scientology. Where does that theme come from for you? I guess its just how I grew up and what I think about. Its not that popular of a theme in rock music, which is weird because its a pretty big chunk of life, to reckon with that sort of thing seriously, or not seriously, or somehow. Its what I think about and talk about and read about, so I thought Id write songs about it. It seemed more where Im coming from than writing songs about anything else. What was it like for you growing up? My father and mother were both very heavy into meditation and spirituality, so I was kind of dragged around as a kid to different ashrams and things  like that. So I thought if youre gonna write a solo record with your name on it, and its your first one, it should be about where youre coming from, that seems to be what people do. Thats where I was coming from, so I figured I would find my own take on that and figure out what all that meant to me. Do you feel now after writing those songs like you have a better grasp on what all that experience meant? Yeah, a little bit. I think it helps to kind of process something in a song, to process the experience in a way that you wouldnt otherwise. Its much less of a psychological thing and more just the experiences coming across in music, which I think is something that the musical form can do that maybe other forms cant do as well. So I see youve done entire tours of living room shows, playing in peoples homes. How have you enjoyed that as compared to the club circuit, and how did the living  room tours come about? Well, it came about because its a smart way of doing things when youre by yourself. Its either that or you hire five of your friends and drag them around and lose a lot of money. Or you can kind of go out on your own and meet people and have these shows. You come to realize if youre going to be playing for 50, 100, 200 people, you really dont need a drumset to get your point across. It kind of ends up being a little off-putting to be playing with a huge band in a small room. It can be fun on certain nights but if youre just trying to get yourself over to people its not that great. I actually prefer it a lot now that Ive done it, to the alternative. Its a small group of people and you meet everybody, and I think they have a better experience than if they went to a rock club which can be very standoffish. Yeah, theres a kind of intimacy in a house show that you dont get at another venue. Yes, its a different thing. I think its something people will start doing more of. Theres starting to be a little network of it across the country, which is great. It feels fresher, youre not going to the same place that 500 other people just went through. You get to blaze your own trail. It takes a little more for everyone to be there, so everyone involved has more intention than just a Friday at the local indie rock place. I like it a lot better. So  you have a performance coming up at KAABOO and some other tour dates as well. Whats next for you? I just moved to Los Angeles so Im trying to figure out what the hell to do with my life. [Laughs]. Yeah, so Ive got to figure that out and from there Ill see what happens next. Im going to put a more LA based band together, or something like that I think, just to start playing with locally and work with some folks out here. And just trying to enjoy California. It seems pretty damn great. Keep up with Peter on Facebook and Twitter, and dont miss him when he performs in your town! Interested in Private Lessons?

Basically it’s a group of people that go around trying to figure out how to make usually boring tasks fun. There website phrase is: This site is dedicated to the thought that something as simple as fun is the easiest way to change people’s behavior for the better. So far they have created Piano Staircase, Bottle Bank Arcade Machine, and many more. They actually make me want to take the stairs instead of the escalator. Photo credit: Keenfootwear.com 4. Fred and Friends By far Fred and Friends is my new favorite company. I would describe what Fred and Friends is but it’s kind of unclear. Basically the only way I can put this is: Fred and Friends makes really cool, interesting, and unexpected products. For example they make Cool Beans Ice Tray, Duck Duck Drink, and Stick Em’ Up Phone Stand. Basically, you will just need to check out this website on your own. I’m sure you’ll find some cool stuff. Photo credit: Fred and Friends Website Okay that list was kind of all over the place I admit. But overall when boredom strikes, the Internet never fails to provide some kind of entertainment.

Wanting To Make A Difference In The World, This Young Student Has Her Sights Set On Politics

Wanting To Make A Difference In The World, This Young Student Has Her Sights Set On Politics Wanting To Make A Difference In The World, This Young Student Has Her Sights Set On Politics Ava, 12, Level I Math, Reading Program Completer Ava started her Kumon journey just over two years ago at the age of 10, and in that time has already successfully completed the Kumon Reading Program. Being in the 7th grade, Ava can say she has already analyzed the works of Shakespeare. “I enjoyed the excerpts in the reading program so much that I ended up borrowing the books to read in my spare time, such as, Pride and Prejudice, The Hobbit, and The Story of My Life,” said Ava. “I also enjoyed interpreting Shakespeare because it’s like a puzzle that’s just waiting for me to solve.” Now, she is determined to complete the Kumon Math Program. She’s already studying above her grade level, but she knows that with a little perseverance, she can complete the entire programâ€"which ends in calculus. Ava thanks Kumon for being able to grasp math concepts with ease in school. As a lifelong resident of Hawaii, it’s no surprise Ava loves taking breaks at the beach from her busy school schedule. She has even developed a sense of wanderlust at a young age with a passion for traveling and discovering new places. After five years of perfecting the art of hula dancing, Ava is proud to say that her hula dance group was selected to perform at the recent 2019 Rose Bowl Parade, and will be the youngest member of her group to perform! Wanting to make a difference in the world, she sees a future in politics or activism, so she can be the voice of people who want to be heard. Ava’s perseverance and determination was recognized by having been one of 55 students selected to attend the 2018 Kumon Student Conference in Calgary, Canada. We had the opportunity to speak to Ava about her Kumon journey thus far. What’s the most beneficial thing you’ve learned in Kumon thus far? Patience is the most beneficial thing I’ve learned because it helps me in and out of the classroom. For example, I will not always understand the formula, but I won’t give up on it right away. I will take a break and ask the teacher for help. Patience also helps me with hula dancing because I may not always get the move down, so I will take a breath and ask my friend for help and try it again. If you could sum up your Kumon experience in one word, what would it be? Perseverance. There were many times when I felt like giving up, but I told myself that I would not give up so easily and I would try again. Perseverance got me to where I am nowâ€"completing the Kumon Reading Program, and working on Level I in the Kumon Math Program. How has Kumon helped you outside of the classroom? I tend to be a sore loser at times, and Kumon has taught me to persevere and keep my frustration at bay. For example, when I lose a game, I don’t get mad and give up. I remain positive and try again, just like in Kumon when I am struggling with a concept. What keeps you motivated in Kumon? The thought that Kumon will help me through challenges in life, like my academics, motivates me because I know that Kumon helps many kids get past those tests to be accepted into college. I really want to attend college and study either business or politics, which requires sharp reading and math skills. I know it will help me for my future, and I will never stop giving it my all. What did it mean to you attending the Student Conference? It allowed me to meet other kids who also enjoy Kumon. Most of my friends don’t understand why I do Kumon or believe me when I say I do it for fun and to be smarter. I met so many people who like Kumon, and even like Harry Potter. It was fun talking about our Kumon experiences and our favorite Harry Potter characters. What advice do you have for other Kumon Students? Kumon takes a lot of work and patience.
