Are You Ready To Kickstart Your Life In 2025?

Are you ready to kickstart your life in 2025? A quiz has been created to help inspire you with ways to take control.

By answering a series of questions about how you typically spend your time, the tool will give you suggestions on how to be more spontaneous, creative or even physically active.

It comes as a poll of 1,000 men found more than half (55 per cent) have vowed to take control of their lives this year.

They want to improve their physical health (53 per cent), happiness (50 per cent) and mental welfare (44 per cent).

While 43 per cent would like a greater sense of purpose in their everyday routine; 48 per cent admitted they often struggle to tell one day from another.

And 95 per cent of those who are looking to take a hold on their life are already taking steps to make it happen.

More than a third (36 per cent) are spending time outdoors to reconnect with nature and 31 per cent are working on improving their work/life balance.

Others are focussing hard to maintain a balanced diet (29 per cent) and learning a new skill (27 per cent).

The research was commissioned by Vitabiotics Wellman, which has partnered with transformation coach, David James Seed, to offer tips to make men feel more in control of their lives.

He said: "The culture around us keeps many stuck in their heads, caught in emotions, and disconnected from the present moment - the only place where real change happens."

"Through deep breathwork, mindful nutrition, and a balanced diet, we can break that cycle -stepping out of our minds and into our hearts, where truth and clarity reside."

"Breathwork is an active meditation, helping you control your nervous system, calm the mind, and shift from stress to clarity. Nourishing your body with whole, nutrient-rich foods strengthens this process, laying the foundation for well-being."

"When we fuel our bodies with intention and align our breath with the present, we cultivate resilience, clarity, and deeper self-connection.”

The research also found 46 per cent of men admit they sometimes feel overwhelmed by the demands and struggles of daily life.

And six in 10 often feel like they’re not living up to their full potential, while 34 per cent feel they are missing out by not doing the things they love.

More than a third (36 per cent) feel they often spend too much time on activities – like excessive screen time – that don’t ‘add value’ to their lives.

But financial constraints (37 per cent), lack of time (36 per cent) and little motivation (32 per cent) have previously prevented men from taking more control of their life.

And 34 per cent would like to prioritise time for self-care every day of the week, according to the OnePoll figures.

Vitabiotics Wellman’s spokesperson added: “Men across the globe are recognising that 2025 can be a transformative year—a time to reclaim control over their physical and mental well-being."

“In today’s fast-paced world, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, but taking simple, intentional steps towards self-care is vital."

“Whether it’s setting healthier boundaries, prioritising fitness, or seeking support, the shift begins with a commitment to change - this journey is about empowerment, not perfection.”
