Kelsey Ballerini wants fans to be realistic about the new year.

She wrote about having resolutions, “I realized that was only going to bring more anxiety and unrealistic expectations into my world and I just don’t have the room for it this year. So I ripped the pages out and replaced it with ‘doing my damn best’. And that’s it. That’s the goal for the year.”

She continued and said, “Because maybe the ‘better-ing’ happens when we just show up and see what meets us simply where we are. Just thought I’d share in case any of your algorithms were also sending you into a shame spiral of not being good enough already. We are.”

Have you kept your New Year’s resolution so far?
