Is there too much pressure surrounding new year?

Okay so before I start this blog post I wanna say HAPPY NEW YEAR. Im excited for this year and the opportunities I will face, but I also wanted to make a post about the pressure I feel surrounding a new year. I think especially now a days when social media is such a big thing people feel almost forced to have goals for the new year and see it as that you have to set off the new year correctly, that's certainly how I feel anyway. I saw someone talk about this topic on instagram and they said that they feel a sense of pressure to be successful. And that we sometimes set ourselves so many goals for a year that when we don't meet them we can't help but blame ourselves.

we can do anything we want to if we have the right motivation to there's nothing stopping us b ut we shouldn't feel so inclined to make ourselves become this whole new person because its new year , I think it all about doing it in our own time and what's healthiest for ourselves. I want to bring awareness that its okay to not achieve everything we set our hearts on or to succeed by a certain day or year, and that with the right self love we will get reach our goals one day.

I also find that there's a lot of pressure surrounding the night of New Years eve, like why do I always feel forced to have to go out and celebrate what if I just stayed in with my dog will I have a cursed year now? like yeah woooo I'm gonna post on my socials that I'm having a really good night when all I'm thinking about the whole time is what pizza I'm gonna order when I get home. This year I didn't even want to go out but kind of felt impulsed to because other wise I would be spending it alone, but now im thinking about it im complexity fine with that, but when I asked other people if I should spend it alone they looked at me like I said the most stupid thing ever.

upon searching New Years eve on YouTube their already was endless vlogs and get ready with mes and I can understand why the internet is a toxic place. I feel like people who don't even have a choice on ehehe they spend New Years eve alone will feel even more awful if they see people boasting about it online. But then when I searched New Years eve alone their came up with a surprising amount of videos of people almost resuming the viewers that its complelty normal thing, what was also really nice to see that almost everyone in the comment section were like "hey I love spending New Years alone". I have huge respect for the people who want to do what makes them most comfortable so happy new years to you.
