Preparing for the New Year

How are you preparing for the New Year?

I mean, if you are the resolution-making type of person, have you thought about making your resolutions yet?

What are your goals for the year? Will you be taking on a new diet? Just making the commitment to eating more healthy foods? Have you done any research in how to accomplish this?

Will you be committing to changing an outward behavior? What supports to do you have in place? An accountability partner? A plan to read over your journal after several entries to see if you are making progress?

I could go on and on getting into detail on how to achieve your resolutions or at least stick to them for more than a week or two, but that is something individual to each person. I’m pretty sure that what works for you would not work for me, at least, not to the exact same detail.

Instead, let me offer encouragement to think about what you’d like to see happen in the new year more than a fleeting minute. I’ve heard many times over that if you have a dream you should write it down. If you do you’re more likely to achieve it! I think I will do that rather than make an official resolution this year…
