I do not make New Years resolutions rather I make New Years intentions. I find that if I label my intentions as goals I have a harder time fulfilling them. Last year I had three intentions:
Lose weight
Go back to College
Potty train Liam
Go back to College
Potty train Liam
I lost 30 pounds which I gained about 7-8 pounds since Thanksgiving. I have returned back to College and Liam is thankfully potty trained.
For 2009 My New Years Intentions are:
First lose those holiday pounds
Lose another 20-30 pounds this year
Continue with College
Lose another 20-30 pounds this year
Continue with College
Read the D&C
Attend the temple once a month
Last year I publicly shared my goals and I found that by doing so, my intentions were something that I reflected on and checked my progress more regularly. So I share with you blogging world my intentions for 2009.
