Mes bonnes r\u00e9solutions pour 2026.<\/em><\/strong> My good resolutions for 202<\/strong>6<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like many North Americans, European French-speakers are relentless self-improvers. The custom of making New Year’s resolutions is so ingrained it’s estimated that 80% of the French adult population make at least one every year, and often more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In France, Before Setting New Year’s Resolutions, You Assess the Past Year<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before setting goals for ourselves, we need to assess our past year and current situation. In French, we say: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je fais le bilan<\/u> de mon ann\u00e9e<\/strong><\/em>.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

(Literally, “I am making the balance sheet for my year” or “I am assessing my year.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another way to say this is: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je passe mon ann\u00e9e en revue<\/strong><\/em>.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“I am reviewing my year. “<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3 Steps to Evaluate The Year in French:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1.<\/em> D\u2019abord, je fais une liste de tous les bons moments et les succ\u00e8s de l\u2019ann\u00e9e<\/em> \u2013 <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“First, I list all the positive moments and successes of the year.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Ensuite, je note mes nouvelles comp\u00e9tences<\/em>. – <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“Then, I note down my new skills.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Par exemple :<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cette ann\u00e9e, je suis all\u00e9e en vacances au Qu\u00e9bec avec des amis et j\u2019ai commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 apprendre le fran\u00e7ais<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This year, I went on vacation to Quebec with friends, and I started to learn French.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je sais dire mon nom, mon \u00e2ge, ma profession et d\u2019o\u00f9 je viens<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I know how to say my name, my age, my profession\/job, and where I come from.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Finalement, je r\u00e9fl\u00e9chis aux erreurs et aux mauvais moments<\/em>.<\/strong> – <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“Finally, I reflect on mistakes and negative moments.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je note mes objectifs non-atteints<\/strong><\/em> \u2013 I note down unreached goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Par exemple :<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je voulais faire plus de sport, mais je n\u2019ai pas organis\u00e9 mon temps. <\/em>“I wanted to exercise more, but I didn\u2019t organise my time.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Typical French New Year’s Resolutions – Mes Bonnes R\u00e9solutions Pour 202<\/em><\/strong>6<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In French, we don’t just make resolutions. We make good resolutions!<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Ce nouvel an, je vais prendre six bonnes r\u00e9solutions<\/em>.<\/strong> “This New Year, I will make six resolutions.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To make it positive, we express them in the present tense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. J\u2019apprends le fran\u00e7ais<\/em>.<\/strong> \u2013 <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“I learn French.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we’ve already started to learn it, we say instead:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

J\u2019am\u00e9liore mon fran\u00e7ais<\/em> \u2013 “I improve my French.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And if we’ve been learning it for some time and want to intensify:

J\u2019approfondis mon fran\u00e7ais<\/em> \u2013 “I go deeper with my French.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.<\/em> Je mange plus sain<\/em>.<\/strong> \u2013 <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“I eat more healthily.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we want some detail:

Je mange moins de sucre et de f\u00e9culents<\/em>. \u2013<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I eat less sugar and carbs.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je mange moins d\u2019aliments transform\u00e9s<\/em>. \u2013 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I eat fewer processed foods.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

J<\/em>e mange plus de fruits et l\u00e9gumes<\/em>. \u2013<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I eat more fruit and vegetables.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

J<\/em>e cuisine avec des ingr\u00e9dients frais<\/em>. \u2013<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I cook with fresh ingredients.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Je fais plus de sport<\/em>. <\/strong>\u2013 <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“I exercise more.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And so as not to have the same problems as the previous year, we can set down smaller goals to help that resolution:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

J\u2019organise mon temps pour faire cinq heures de sport par semaine<\/strong><\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I organize my time so as to do five hours of exercise per week.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je nage une heure par semaine<\/strong><\/em>. \u2013 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I swim for an hour per week.”

Je prends un cours de danse par semaine<\/strong><\/em>. \u2013<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I do an hour\u2019s dance class per week.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Je passe plus de temps avec ma famille et\/ou mes amis<\/em>. \u2013<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

“I spend more time with my family and\/or my friends.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je d\u00e9jeune avec ma s\u0153ur au moins deux fois par mois<\/em>. \u2013<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je vais voir mes parents un dimanche sur deux<\/em>. \u2013<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I go walking in nature.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Je vais fl\u00e2ner en ville<\/em>. \u2013<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I go strolling\/wandering through the city.” (fl\u00e2ner<\/em> is a slow art that the French appreciate. It represents the opposite of being on the clock.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

J\u2019\u00e9cris un journal intime.<\/em> \u2013 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eat well, exercise, be a good person\u2026but don’t beat yourself up!<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We all start the year with good intentions, but some of them will fall by the wayside. According to food delivery services in Paris, bad eating habits start creeping back in the second half of January. C’est la vie!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the French love to say, on ne se prend la t\u00eate ! <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Literally, that expression means “let’s not grab our heads” \u2013 let’s not overthink this \/ make life too difficult for ourselves. As a psychologist reminded listeners on a French radio station this year, les bonnes r\u00e9solutions se prennent toute l’ann\u00e9e<\/em> \u2013 we can make resolutions all year round. Sometimes, New Year is just an opportunity to relax and have fun with friends, despite our Covid-era restrictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alors\u2026 Bonne Ann\u00e9e<\/em>! Happy New Year! Or they say in the French-speaking Swiss Alps, over a glass of abricotine<\/em> \u2013 “Bonne et heureuse<\/em>!”<\/strong> Good and happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
