Gather the courage to change yourself, these 5 habits for 2026 will bring your life back on track.

News India Live, Digital Desk: Tonight when we all will be saying ‘Happy New Year’, the enthusiasm will be very high. But the bitter truth is that 80% people forget their resolutions by January 15. If you really want to do something big in 2026, then instead of making big promises, bring these 5 changes in your everyday life.1. Capture the morning ‘Golden Hour’ There is no rocket science behind success, it just comes down to how you start your day. Say goodbye to the habit of checking your phone (Instagram/E-mails) first thing in the morning in 2026. Give the first 60 minutes of the morning just to yourself, whether it’s yoga, meditation or just drinking tea peacefully. When you start the day with control over yourself, the whole day remains under your control.2. Make ‘consistency’ your superpower. We often make the mistake of wanting to sweat for 2 hours in the gym on the very first day or reading the entire book in a single day. But real success comes slowly. Make a rule in 2026—“Not a lot, but every day.” Just taking a 15-20 minute walk or reading 5 pages every day will put you far ahead at the end of the year compared to those who show enthusiasm once a week.3. Digital Detox: Don’t be ‘available’ for everything. In today’s era, the most valuable thing is not money, but our ‘focus’. We have become slaves of notifications. Develop one habit in 2026—put your phone on do-not-disturb (DND) mode for at least 2 hours a day. When you work with deep concentration, 2 hours of work can be completed in 45 minutes. Learn to cherish your privacy and time.4. Learn to keep track of your money: Often we do not realize where our earnings have gone until the end of the month. Take steps towards financial freedom in 2026. Write down your smallest expenses in a simple app or diary. When you see your wasteful expenditure, the courage to invest automatically increases. Spend not to look rich, but to become rich.5. Nightly habit of ‘Daily Review’: 10 minutes before sleeping, write on a paper what new you have learned today or what you are grateful for today. This small practice gives positive feedback to your brain. Also, decide the 3 most important tasks for the next day at night itself. After waking up in the morning, you will not have to think about what to do, your mind will be directly in ‘action’ mode.
