A new year is a great time to reset your internal clocks, re-calibrate your settings, and re-chart your course. There’s something encouraging and natural about using a fresh calendar page to make new goals in your life, which is why new year’s resolutions are so popular.
But made in haste, resolutions can be pointless at best, discouraging and depressing at worst. When they’re vague, broad, and unreachable, you’re almost setting yourself up for failure. But when they’re specific, productive, and attainable, resolutions can truly be an ebenezer in your life for some healthy changes.
I’m in favor on new year’s resolutions

I am totally going to print these questions out for my man and I to discuss. Thanks, Tsh, for the great food for thought.
Happy New Year!
Marilyn says
Good questions. They will help zero in on some good resolutions rather than just randomly making commitments. We are visiting with family and will be discussing some of these today.

Thank you! I posted it on my blog for the readers I might have who don’t subscribe. I think my husband is already starting to look forward to discussing these questions (tee hee).
Happy New Year!

This is actually a great idea that, sadly, would have never, ever occured to me.
Thank you for sharing! I’m really looking forward to diving into it.
