Okay so we're already 22 days into the new year, but everyone has New Year's Resolutions! Some people just don't realize they do. People can just subconsciously set out to be a better person, shed a few pounds, spend more time with people. We are constantly thinking of ways to better ourselves. We don't always succeed, but most of the time we at least try. My high school Spanish teacher, Senor Grover, told us that people are more likely to reach their goals if they write them down and even more likely if they tell others about their goals (something to do with accountability I'm sure). So guess what?! I'm doing BOTH. I already wrote down my resolutions, so now I'm going to share them with you.
NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS!
***Tornado Style!!!***
*take pictures often/learn about photography
(because photography’s sexy)
*journal (let’s leave something cool
behind in case I become famous one day)
*write for at least 30 to 60 minutes a day
(a Writer should write, right?)
*eat healthier/smaller portions (eat
like the French, not the Americans)
*don't fall for people who don't reciprocate (aren't I the optimist?)
*move on with life (let’s try not being
bitter but instead be better)
*exercise five times a week (time to get
sexy...oops! too late!)
*watch less YouTube (ahh, one of my more prominent vices)
*appreciate others, especially those who appreciate me :)
*save money (Amazon! I still love you
and your bargains!)
*get promoted to black belt in Tae Kwon Do
(or near to)
*read for fun (crazy concept I know, but
people do it)
*make movies (kind of essential for a
filmmaker)
*go to sleep by midnight (I can dream,
can’t I?)
*eat out less (to help me health and me
wallet)
*floss daily (you can't see, but I'm smiling)
*laugh more, love more, live more
*wake up by 9am (on school days)
*blog more (off to a good start)
*don’t swear (what the truck!)
*find the joy around me
*stay true to myself
As you can see some are abstract, some are concrete, but they're my goals for being a better me.
What are some of your resolutions? Have you written them down? Told them to anyone?
Do any of yours match mine? Let me know in the comments. :) Peace.
***Yeah, I totally spent precious time making sure this thing had some kind of alignment to it***
