I know many of you are anti New Year's Resolutions. I understand. I get it. It's almost as if you are setting yourself up to fail when you make a resolution. Last year I wanted to read through the Bible in a year, and I didn't. I always want to lose about 10 pounds and that didn't happen either. I usually start out the year determined and ready to change and by the beginning of March I'm over it. Why bother with a list of resolutions when I'm not likely to keep them? For me, it's good to make a formal acknowledgement of things that I need to change. This has led me to make a list of eleven things I'd like to do in 2011. Maybe I'll see it through and maybe I won't. At least it's a start and it can only make me a better person so why not give it a shot.
3. Eat more meals at home
4. Turn off the computer and go to bed earlier
5. Save money
7. Exercise
8. Organize my digital clutter
9. Plant a vegetable garden
10. Play outside more with Will and Ben
11. Learn to use Photoshop
Good luck with your New Year's Resolutions!
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
Love it! I love new years resolutions & make them every year (and fail miserably) I will be posting them soon. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteGreat list of hopes for 2011. Looking forward to seeing you reach 'em all!
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking (when I saw my 100+ bookmarks) that I need to clean up my digital mess this year too!!!
ReplyDeleteThose One Year Bibles that give you a reading for each day are the only way I can read through the Bible in a year. This year I'm using the Chronological Bible in the New Living Translation.
Love this! What great resolutions!
ReplyDeleteI have that same study Bible. I love your list and I feel the same way, even if I don't do everything on my list, I at the very least have noticed areas I would like to improve. I hope you are having a great Sunday.
