New Year's Resolutions?

back at you artistry...I sincerely hope it's a wonderful year for you and yours...full of abundance. Someone else told me about Mr Tickle and I have not been able to find him.

Thank you for BR. If you see Mr Tickle again can you let me know please?

...Hi there MsT, Hope you and yours are doing well. I notice that there is a Mr. Tickle here, did you see his avatar? Anyway, I think that most of the time it's a resolution about losing weight or trying to stop smoking and/or making more money, which really you have to be disciplined about the first two and creative about the third. We say something most of us about resolutions, turn over and go back to sleep until next year in essence. Me I just don't get into saying anything, I am creative and splattered at times "o) so I do things a bit differently than others. If I decide something I do it mentally without the New Year as my starting point and it works better for me. But you are right, that is my thought as well. The other thing is that you have to set something for yourself if you are serious about it as someone said, that is attainable. I will marry Brad Pitt, wellll you can see how far that will go. "o Thanks so much for your comment, Happy belated New Year, if I haven't said so before. Cheers.

...Hi there aurorastorm, I am hopeful that things are getting to be a little better for you. Sounds like a very good idea and an excellent starting place. I am of the opinion though it may take a bit of work as well, that if you try hard to think positively that it can get to be a habit and you will draw positive things your way. I wrote an article, if I can remember the link, www.socyberty.com/try-to-find-a-happy-thought/ or it may be www.healthmad.com/try-to-find-a-happy-thought/ If you look for it I hope you find it, but the title gives you the essence. Take care of yourself and do practice as you say to laugh more. Cheers.

...Hi cher, That is a sensible thing to do. Since you know yourself and what you want to do, it is good to keep your perspective and be reasonable about resolutions. You will never be disappointed. I don't make any resolutions because I know myself, I also have short term memory problems, so I keep myself out of trouble and do not make any at all. Thanks so much for stopping by and sharing your thoughts with us. Take care, enjoy the new year. Cheers.

...Hi there 1hopefulman, The word resolution is a bit much for me to absorb for some reason. I think short term or long term goals are a better way of putting things. Resolution, well...just makes me think of legalization or something. A charter of some kind. "o) Just my way of thinking and I have never taken to making any effort to do a resolution. Accomplishing things is very good but I do not want a resolution attached to it. Thanks so much for your response, you keep up the good work with your writing goals. Take care.

...Hi maezee, Your way is different. I think the entire thing of setting yourself up at the beginning of a year creates a false point to start with. Just set your goals as you are doing whenever you think about them and continue to work toward completing them. Much better way of doing it. Your percentage is probably right on target. Good luck with all of your efforts. Thanks for your comment. Take care. "o) .

...Hi there trruk, I would think that you are quite right about that. It is a way of sort of tabling things. I don't make resolutions because it is not something that is going to stay with me. Before you know it, whatever it was you were not going to do and it is usually that way, an ending to something, you find yourself doing it again. So why start to try to stop? Thanks so much for your comment. Enjoy the new year, be healthy and safe in your travels. Cheers.

...Hi there Angelwriter, Well this is the first time that anyone has voiced that and I heard about it. I think that is a great thing to do. What good sense that makes. I do not make any resolutions as I think as you do that it is so easy to not keep them so why put yourself through it all. It may sound good but it's a downer when you give up. Thank you so much for sharing that with us. Enjoy the new year, be healthy and safe. Cheers.

....Hi there lologirl, There are those who are methodical and are able to set goals for themselves which sometimes include their resolutions and have no problem sticking to them and accomplishing what they intend to do. Moi lives kind of spontaneously and would rather not have to remember that you said you were going to do this or that. Better for me as well to have short term goals so that I can see something materialize rather than waiting. Earning money is always good. Oh if you want a good site for your efforts, contact me with a friend request and will certainly share it with you. Have a Happy, Healthy New Year. Cheers.
