And we hope that by sharing our New Year's Resolutions with you, they will encourage you to continue with yours...not give them up by the second week in February, like we've been told most people do.
So, without giving away names, I'm going to list a few of our resolutions:
- Smile more (with a smiley face near the resolution)
- Write in my blog everyday and be more positive
- Live, love and be happy
- Set goals and be a better Weight Watcher
- Be more considerate
- Graduate from college
- Appreciate the small things
- Exercise more
- Read daily devotions
- Be a better me
- Run a half marathon by Dec. 31, 2013.
It seems in my lifetime I've made at least a thousand resolutions. Some at the first of the year, but others at different times during the year. Like saying, "I'll NEVER do that again!"
Many people make resolutions, but never intend to share them with anyone. Either they are too personal or people feel if they share and don't follow-up, they've failed big time!
It shouldn't take a lot of effort to 1) smile more, 2) be a better me, 3) appreciate the small things, or 4) be more considerate. But sometimes it really does! And then comes in that remembering thing. Often we make the resolutions and then forgot what we've made.
In fact, if we all made just those four resolutions numbered above as our very own resolutions, doesn't it seem that we will "live, love and be happy" for the whole year? Maybe even a lifetime.
Want to give it a try? I think it's worth it and so do the people who made those resolutions in the first place.
Good luck.... We'd like to hear how you're doing come the middle of February.
