Most respondents say their top wish for 2026 is better health, closely followed by a desire for world peace.

That’s according to the latest unscientific poll at SharylAttkisson.com.

Thirty-one percent (31%) say better health is the one thing they want most in 2026.

Twenty-seven percent (27%) say they wish for world peace, acknowledging it may be a long shot.

Nineteen percent (19%) say financial stability matters most, while 17% say they want stronger relationships.

Only four percent (4%) say they want a fresh start, and fewer than two percent (1%) say success in work is their top priority.

These results suggest respondents are focused more on well-being and global stability than personal ambition heading into 2026.
