Happy New Year!
So … did any of you brave souls make any new year resolutions? Have you managed to keep them up to day three of the new year or have you broken them already?
I didn’t really make any resolutions. If I did at all it would have been to go to be earlier. I’m a chronic night owl and I’m sure I’d feel a little better overall if I’d just go to bed an hour or two earlier each night. IF that was my resolution it’s broken already … I went to bed very late on the first night of the year, but I’ve been doing better the last two nights, maybe it will work.
I did managed to quit smoking in October (October 12th!) and yes, I’m still not smoking. Going on three months … so that’s going well. That’s a big resolution that people tend to make at the start of the new year, I guess I made mine early when the pressure wouldn’t be on me.
One of my friends vowed to lose weight. 15 pounds before spring! I think she’s looking for a weight loss supplement but I know that just watching what you eat and stepping up your activity really does help.
So … let me know if you made any new year resolutions and if you’ve managed to stick to them so far.
i haven’t really made any because i have a notion that resolutions don’t do any good and expectations hurt. yours is a good blog. keep up the good work.
I made a ton of resolutions this year, including:
1. Save more money
2. Work out more
3. Spend more time with friends/family on a 1 on 1 basis
4. Write a book
It’s a mistake to not make resolutions as it means you have no real goals to aspire to. It’s better to have goals and only accomplish small parts of it than to not try at all. For example, even if you go hardcore dieting and exercising for only the first 2 months of the year, it’s better from a yearly perspective than not having worked out those 2 months at all
I enjoy your blog very much. Look forward to more posts in 2011!
