Resolutions
Each new year often brings new year's resolutions. I am not big on resolutions because I think that most people make resolutions that are unattainable, hence why most people give up by the end of January.I just read an article in the newspaper today that it takes three to six months for a behavior to become habit, so hopefully this year I can turn my resolutions from "every now and then" to "regular behaviors".
I made resolutions last year for, like, the first time ever. I tried to make them 1) realistic and 2) to better myself. In 2007, I've decided to keep the same three resolutions that I made in 2006. I made some progress last year, but there is still much room for improvement. My list reads more like a "to-do" list, but they are resolutions nonetheless.
Here is my list in no particular order:
1) Take a multi-vitamin every day. (Hey-I'm no spring chicken and it's time to start taking care of myself!)
2) Sit up straight. (Years of stress has taken it's toll. This is more of a directive from the chiropractor - my neck and shoulders are a complete mess!)
3) Gossip less. (Yes, less. Like I said earlier - I think resolutions should be realistic.)
Other things I'd like "to do" in 2007 are to eat fish 1-2 times a week, get to work on time and develop a regular work-out schedule. However, I need to get myself some sleep and my daily activities into some kind of a pattern before I can turn these things into something that is a realistic part of my daily life. But at least I have something to look forward to for 2008!
