Did you make a resolution?

I usually don't make new years resolutions. I just never really got into it. Almost no one keeps them anyway. This year though I made the resolution to lose weight. I know thats one that most people tend to make. I've had my last kid in July, its time to take all this baby weight off for good and get back to the me I was before I had kids. I don't have to be exactly the weight I was, but I want to be in better shape.

I never make New Year's resolutions anymore because I only break them anyways. I might follow one for about a month but never longer. I have made some in the past. Some of them were losing weight, quitting smoking, getting more active. I will usually lose some weight and start out doing some exercises but put the weight back on within 2 months after. So them I did all that suffering and work losing it for nothing. So now I have just accepted my size and I don't put on anymore weight. I am about 25 lbs. overweight, so it's not a big deal for me anymore. I am almost 50 years old and so I have accepted I will never have that young lean strong body anymore.

Not yet,but I will try my best to pass all my courses this semester!^_^ Several weeks later,I will participate in the final exam of this semester.Hope I can pass all of them!

Hello! Hmm... I can't remember any resolution I made, so I don't think I ever made any resolutions for any year. This Year, I have nothing special, since my hands are a bit tied up. I'm under eighteen, doesn't leave home too often, all the resolutions I could make are about school, so I'd rather have no resolutions, but one: to try and be better than I was in 2007. I hope that, in this year, I can learn more with my mistakes, and with other people's mistakes aswell. I hope to grow inside, not only outside, and have the maturity of taking actions that a guy with my age wouldn't. That's it, I think. Respectfully.

I usually dont make new year's resolution and forget all about it the following day. But for this year what i have is a list of projects, its like goal setting. Like learning a new language, to finish our house something like that. then if i have these in my mind, without realizing it, my attitude and energy is set towards this goal.

I agree with you. Making a resolution on the one day of the year when it seems you HAVE to make one is a perfect way to fail in keeping that resolution. Any day of the year is a good time to resolve to do something provided you feel its time for it.

I do not make New Year's resolutions, for the reasons you named. I do, however, anytime I feel motivated all year long, express new, healthy intentions. If I fail, I forgive myself, because I have made the effort to consider and attempt them. I will have to think about resolutions for my cats and family, though. They could make some good ones. I am resolved to be happy that my sister is quitting smoking, and having good success.

I already did, and it's permanent. In the past, I never cared much about resolutions at this time of the new year. Resolutions about weight loss, being better, doing this, doing that, that is not for me anymore. I got a permanent resolution for this new year and beyond. It's all about MONEY and WEALTH. I've made a resolution to do anything and everything I can about money. Studying about money, learning of the history of money, using my five senses to help make money, learning how money works, how to use money, etc. I've read a hell of a lot of self-help books offline and online this year, and I want to be rich and wealthy to "upgrade" myself from living a poor life to living the good life as a rich person. This is my new lifelong dream. I won't wait until retirement to be rich. I want to live and enjoy the best life has to offer. That is my dream. That is my new, permanent resolution.

I don't usually make resolutions either. I just try to improve on the year before. I learn from the mistakes I've made the previous year and make changes. I discover what I did right and continue with it.
