I’ve always loved New Year’s resolutions. Really, I have. They get a bad rap, mostly because we have a difficult time keeping them. I’m just not convinced that it’s the resolutions that are the problem.
A quick Google search will reveal thousands of words written about the correct way to make a resolution and even more words encouraging you to not make them at all. Of course, this site isn’t really about making recommendations for anyone else. It’s more about…me. So, since I’m making some resolutions this year, I’m going to share them. Entirely up to you whether you’ll do the same.
Slow down.
I’ve got a lot going on this year. It’s going to be pretty easy to let the year just zoom past. So, I’m going to make a concerted effort to just…live. I want to enjoy every moment this year.
Simplify.
Because I’ve got a lot going on, I need there to be less, um, going on. So, I’m cutting some stuff out of my life to make room for the new.
Stay the course.
This is the only “grit your teeth” resolution on my list. Again related to the magnitude and volume of goals I have for 2010, simply slowing down and simplifying will not accomplish these goals. It’s going to take some work.
That’s it. Those three. I have some specific ways I’m going to live these resolutions, but that really would be boring (and probably overkill). What are some of your resolutions for the new year?
