New Year resolutions.. what's yours?

[CountryWolf07]

Thought I'd start a thread on New Year resolutions.. here are two of mine, and I intend to keep them THIS time around.

- work out daily on the treadmill - Fridays/Saturdays with the boyfriend at the rec center, get back in shape, lose about 10 lbs that I've gained the last year.

- cut back on Starbucks' mocha and frappachino drinks from every week to once a month

I was just about to start a thread on this. You beat me to it. I guess great minds think alike!

I made my one resolution. It's the same one I make every year, and I always keep it.

My resolution is to never make a New Year's Resolution....

I love this! This is my kind of resolution! I can never keep a New Year Resolution, so I just don't make them.

[Catherinedana]

My resolution is to continue diligently working on my dream so that I will be free of my corporate job as soon as possible. . .intention set on the end of 2010.

add me to this list.. lol..

although there are thing I´d like to do.. whenever (so they are NOT resolutions at all).. haha.. loose weight, start a business of my own(so i have extra $), and keep me fit (strength-wise... i could so use upper body strength.. lol)

[Pinot's Mom]

Mine this year is to physically advance myself not only in weight loss, but I need more upper body strength too. I have already started working toward it. Oh, also to keep with this final college major, I don't know why I didn't see it before. I've changed my mind 50 times, but this was my original one and someone discouraged me from it because "I wouldn't make alot of money without having a PhD" well, I'm willing to get the PhD for something I love - Marine Biology. That's the last time I let someone change my mind.

Whoever told you that is a pessimist and has no basis for it. Go for what you want and you'll be better off! You'll be fine!
PS...my husband's College Degree is in Biology, he has no Master's of PhD, and he makes money!

My resolution is to continue diligently working on my dream so that I will be free of my corporate job as soon as possible. . .intention set on the end of 2010.

That's a great goal! Good luck with it!!

I, myself, don't make resolutions on New Year's. I just try and make little promises to myself throughout the year. Sometimes they work, sometimes not, but it's all good!

Ditto that for me---I can think of great resolutions to make but I never seem to keep them either.

We're so alike it's scary. My resolution has lately been to stop kidding myself about keeping resolutions.

Find a home!

Mine is to eat healthier and try not to be such a worry wart.
Last year it was to diet and I gained 20 pounds.

[cassiesmom]

I resolve to exercise regularly.
I resolve to do better at money management.
To stop acquiring "stuff", let go of things that are cluttering up my place and give away what I am not using but others might be able to.
To figure out what to do with the remaining years of my career.

[krazyaboutkatz]

I usually don't make resolutions but I'll try to:
work on my debt (it's hard with my cats always getting sick)
try to eat healthier
try not to get so stressed out at work
try to get plenty of sleep

[trayi52]

I just don't make New Years resolutions, just take it day by day! I know I couldn't keep one anyway.

I don't normally make resolutions because I always break them in the first week of Jan. This year, however, I vow to do the following:

• with doctor's help, wean myself off my meds by continuing my weight loss
• be more patient with myself
• be more patient with my Mom
• reduce stress in my life. Although I may not be able to eliminate it, I can do things to handle it better
• stop talking and listen more
• take serious steps to improve my financial situation

That's it for now. I welcome any of you to follow up with me on this in February.
