New year, new goal?

I have no resolution this year or if I did I knew I would break it sooner or later I have a goal though, I want to finish my studies this year, I'm getting old and I'm at a marrying age but still the family crisis had taken it's toll on me and I got delayed in everything including school. Also I welcome this year positively and I feel my luck is going to change but it wont change if I don't do something about it

Hello my friend PeacefulWmn9 Ji, You are absolutely right in thinking to just cosolidate, what you thought a yar back onsetof 2009 and how far youachieved your goal, what were reasons for reversals and their remedial actions to be taken. Then set new goals, with in permissile reach. Once this all home work is done, you can relax and sleep well. Try and full-fill your tyarget by due date. This will build in more courage to make even better plan and assignments. May God bless You and have a great time.

No Karen I do nt make resolutions any more I just take each Day as it comes now, there are no Goals or anything like that just to live Life and make the best of things

I do not make resolutions either. I just hope to live another year in my home & enjoy my kids & not to feel any worse than i do now. I don't have many wants & guess it's a good thing i don't & it's for sure i'm not going to change my honery ways, lol.

I don't make them either because I never seem to keep them and then by the time the end of the year comes I end up feeling worse about myself than I did when i made the resolution. I think this year though I am going to try and take better care of my health and to also maybe try to get more into the craftings like I have always wanted to...

Each January I renew my efforts to lose weight. Some years I have done really well, other years not. So I am gearing up to continue and redouble my commitment to myself and my scale. I need to do it for my health and my happiness, both. There may be other things that come to mind, but that is the most important. January 1 may be an arbitrary date, but it works for me. ;-)

I have many goals...one is to get to a healthy weight but this is a continuation of last year goal so I have been working on it and am down 55 pounds. I am going to get a different job. I am starting a class next month and by spring I should be doing better. I want to get my bathroom fixed, maybe started putting new windows on the house and get it really, really clean. New carpeting maybe (after bathroom and windows). Sand the hardwood floors and reseal them.

I just got a resolution yesterday, it came from mylot. I am going to pay attention to and pass along all the good feelings I come across each day. And since mylot is where I communicate the most, watch out, you all will be ready to boycott me in the first month. I'll try to be restrained.

certainly,new year is coming,i should have new plan,but as for me,i find that i am confused with my life,i hope that i would have good start and resigned my job,but as the same time i feel confused what i am fit for,i dont want to work for boss,i hope that i can do my busniss.because of missing money,i find that i could not do what i want,sometimes i find that the life is very helpless.

Well, the one special goal that I had set for myself for 2009 did not happen because of financial constraints that we faced, so I think that I am going to carry that one forward into 2010. That one special goal is to get our kitchen remodeled. We bought our house just about two years ago and since we've bought it we've done a lot of work to it and the majority of the house is very nice now, but the kitchen is still a mess and I would like to see new cabinets as well as our new appliances that we've already bought installed in there. The man that owned our house prior to us didn't take care of it, so now we are doing all the rehab work on it, but I think in the long run it is going to pay off very well for us.

Yes, much like you I look forward to being better off than I was at the end of the year before. All of the plans that I have now should have reached another level by the end of 2010. My one goal is a two part goal: To have my website up and running and to have a substancial following.

Just like you, i no longer make a resolution cause i am sure to break it sooner or later, i just make some improvements on myself and set new goals. I will never make a resolution to be a good man because sometimes when we people are getting emotional, we do things that are not so good. Have a Happy New Year!

my new goal in the new years coming is to buy the stuffs i want and also spend my spare money to my shooling

Last year I made the mistake of setting up too bigger ambitions for my New Year, and they set me up to fail and I came crashing down to earth with a big bang. I started the year very positive that I was going to achieve my two goals by June I realized that I wasn't going to achieve them and it made me feel so damn depressed, so this year I am only going to set myself small easier goals, kind of like stepping stones if you like or small pigeon steps then I won't be setting myself up for a failure. I know what I'd love but it's out of my reach and I have to be realistic. Getting my own place would be a dream come true, I craved that last year but this year I am going to concentrate on me and getting myself stronger not physically because that is easy, but mentally and that is the difficulty, mainly my self esteem issues and trying to build myself up, but slowly, doing it with the help of my therapist and my inner strength which fortunately I possess. Happy 2010 dear friend I hope it brings you happiness and a small slice of that for me too!

Making resolutions is good, but failing to realize them is embarrassing. So i seldom to do such thing. I wish i could make more money and friends in 2010.

I do make resolutions every new year. I list them and try my best to apply them in my life. Some of the resolutions were fulfilled and made but some weren't. I do make a point that I do what I could to make those resolutions happen. I guess , it's just normal if those plans and goals weren't all achieved, what's important is you have given your best to make things happen. This coming year, my plans are mostly about work. I also need to save more, it will be one of my major resolution. I'll try to make it happen again next year.

Hi, i want to make a new goal on new year but still i think about it.because i have so many goals for new year but some times we never stay on it so i make some simple goals on my life.
