How about a poll on New Year's Resolutions

[OrganicAnn]

Just for fun. What categories do your resolutions fall into. I hope I listed all the major ones.

 

Multiple choice.

Is this a poll?

 

My resolutions fall into: Embrace life and have more fun. I am turning 40 this year (in January) and want to ENJOY it.

Yes it is a poll. Have more fun sounds like a great goal.

[ThatCyndiGirl]

LOL. Your poll wasn't up when I posted the first time. Those bars look really big for only a couple of votes! hehe

 

I thought about clicking 'exercise', but figured, 'c'mon, let's be realistic!' :lol:

[myfunnybunch]

Mine is the same as last year: Say YES. As often as humanly possible, say yes. We've had a fabulous year, and I want another one like it.

I voted "other" because I don't make them. :D

 

They're too cliche, and they're too easily broken, and they cause more distress and discouragement than improvement and benefit.

 

Maybe I'm the only one who feels this way?

[4littleones]

Perhaps the poll should have an option for "All of the above and more!" Mind you, I am aware of many areas in my life that need improving. Taking steps towards implementing that said improvement, is another story!

[Parrothead]

Several of the above.

My goal is to have more of an "Attitude of Gratitude".

 

I'm been feeling frustrated with other people's lack of gratitude this year, which of course makes me less gracious! So I'm going to make the change start with me.

:iagree::iagree:

 

All I want is to just have a little fun and some peace even when we are in the midst of the storm.

I don't make actual resolutions. I think about where I'd like to focus and improve in the coming year.

 

1. Run in the Jingle Bell Run at the end of the year (I've been gradually running a bit and this would be really cool to do!)

2. Develop and follow some sort of cleaning routine. (We just got new floors and paint in the entire downstairs. Next year we hope to do the upstairs. Now that it looks nice I want to keep it nice but between work and school, there's just not much time left.)

3. Improve my cello playing. Practice more consistently and figure out what my goals are.

4. Make changes to our menus. Find a bit healthier meals that we like and are easy to fix.

5. Continue letting go of my control issues. I've been working on being less controlling with dh and the boys. This isn't done and needs more work.

I don't make New Year's resolutions. I do set some goals and take steps towards accomplishing them, so I don't feel like I've failed if I don't get all the way there.

[secular_mom]

I've only ever made one- that was that I was NOT going to cook a turkey for Thanksgiving. I stuck to it. :D

New Years Resolutions don't really mean anything to me. If I decide to change something or do something it's not because of the time of year, I just 'do it' when I feel like it. But that's just me.

I've been working on being more relaxed about things lately (I have an anxiety disorder and I tend to be uptight) and this Christmas was more enjoyable, even the part where we visited relatives. So I'm still working on being relaxed but it's not an NYR.

Spiritual! And health (re: healthy drinking water)....

[athena1277]

The only resolution we have is to move. South. Some place warm and closer to family. Of course, that means dh has to get a job first.....

[OrganicAnn]

Spiritual!

 

I forgot to have an option for Spiritual. I would have had to add it to some other group since 10 was the limit.

[Mosaicmind]

I don't really do New Year's resolutions so I chose "other." I do have aspirations for the year and one would be for me to have a daily quiet time and really dig deep into my Bible. I also would love to be completely healed of my DID but that would mean to most people integration, except that's not what it means to me. I just want to live my life with all my parts and be successful and mentally healthy.

I have some things I would like to work on:

 

Get better at saving money

 

Finish all of my uncompleted sewing projects- YIKES!

 

Keep up with my Latin study group.

[FairProspects]

Mine is to consistently wake up at 6am and have time to keep the house a bit cleaner!

[amy g.]

I'll take one of each.

[Ginevra]

I want to read through (the rest) of the Bible. I have had that goal before, but bogged down somewhere in Isaiah.

I did one like this. NOT doing it chronologically but in different aspects helped it be more interesting for me!
