Today I had lunch with a friend who told me he never makes New Year’s Resolutions because he has never known anyone who keeps them. I sat there silently.
He looked at me, laughed and said “you always keep them don’t you?”
Generally (there are exceptions) I do keep my New Years Resolutions but I don’t exactly shoot for the moon with them either.
I make resolutions I can semi-control with clear, measurable goals. And this year is no exception.
Here are my New Year’s Resolutions:
AFrugalChick.com
- Write, Develop and Teach New Coupon Class
- Finish Writing My First Book
- Increase Readership
Personal
- Read Through The Bible
- Run Three Races
- Vocal Music Director For Community Theater Show (scheduled for Summer 2015!)
Financial
- Build Savings Account Up To Six Months of Bills
That’s it! While they certainly aren’t easy resolutions they are all going to be easy enough to know if I accomplished them!
What are you planning on doing this year?
Laura, if you are interested in running races, check out The Running Turtles on facebook
https://www.facebook.com/groups/runningturtles/
We are a fun group of people who run, walk, jog or slog to the finish line.
Mine aren’t lofty either, but they will certainly improve my lifestyle. My resolutions are:
1. Cut all sugar and flour out of my diet
2. Increase readership on my blog
3. Create a baby emergency fund
4. Walk 3 miles per day
Your goals are definitely attainable. Thank you for sharing them! 🙂
