Give Yourself The Ultimate Summer Upgrade
As tropical locales and poolside parties beckon, it's tempting to focus solely on achieving the perfect "summer body." However, true self-improvement goes beyond physical appearance. This summer, why not take a whole-brain approach to upgrading yourself? Here's how you can harness your time this summer to enhance your mind, your body, and even your future prospects.
1. Actually Learn That New Language
Did you know that learning a new language is the most commonly abandoned goal set by adults across the US? And that’s a shame, because learning a new language can open doors to new cultures, career opportunities, and personal growth. This summer, actually DO IT. From Spanish and French to Mandarin and beyond, language classes are great ways to exercise your brain, learn something new, and possibly impact your life for the better. Spend your summer mastering a new language and watch as your world expands.

2. Focus on Health, Not Shame
This summer, leave the fad diets behind and focus on resetting your health for the better. Talk to a nutritionist and find the right nutrition plan for you and your unique needs. It’s also no secret that moving your body helps achieve health goals. Instead of focusing on cardio or punishing yourself with intensive workout routines, find physical activity you enjoy and can sustain. From swimming to dancing to yoga, finding an athletic outlet you actually enjoy can be more rewarding in the long run than even the most exhausting gym session.
3. Master the Language of the Future with Coding Courses
In today's digital age, coding skills are more valuable than ever. Unfortunately, like spoken language goals, learning coding languages is a very frequently abandoned goal for adults across the US. This summer, push yourself to finally learn that coding language, get that certificate, learn that new skill. It may cut into your poolside margarita time now, but the doors coding can open for you in the future are too promising to ignore.

We get it! Money is one of the few things that somehow manages to be both scary and boring! However, if you’re the type to spend money recklessly, avoid looking at your bank account, and hope for the best, you owe it to yourself to grow your financial literacy skills at your earliest convenience. From managing debt to choosing the right account to building wealth, understanding personal finance is crucial for long-term financial well-being.
