“New Year Resolutions”

It is becoming the end of the year and all around I hear talk about making the infamous “New Year Resolutions”.  To be honest half of these I hear is to lose weight or to stick to the diet.  Its no wonder why we say that resolution, I mean we just had 2 major holidays here in the states, between thanksgiving and Christmas, the serenity of food still dances in our minds (or stomachs).  And each year we vow to stand by these resolutions… We make the resolution, we decide, we are determined, we know the solution, but by the end of January (for the most of us) we say screw it!  And for those who are still going strong with your resolutions on December 31st (well screw you too!... kidding!!!)

I ponder the thought of what makes us say we can not stand strong to our own resolutions.  Is it that our resolutions are unrealistic?

My New Years Resolutions
(A work in progress)
I will not call people a dumbass
(This seems unrealistic already)
I will not text during lectures
(Again who am I kidding?)

All I’ve learned is that so far my resolutions are not even achievable!

This will be a work in progress… 
I have 3 more days to think of something achievable.

  1. The very idea of "resolutions" makes no sense to me. That's why, instead of resolutions, this year I'm making a list of achievements to accomplish during the new year. That way, instead of feeling like I have my hands tied in the actions I can and can't do, I have new horizons to explore and goals to accomplish before the year is out. I think this is a much better way to look at the whole thing. Just my opinion ;)
