New Years Solutions

It is hard to believe that tomorrow is Christmas Eve. This year has gone by so fast and yet again I am left with a year full of wishes and would of should of could of's instead of did its, got it and finished it. I want to have a year full of accomplishments but in the everyday hustle and bustle I think that we lose sight of the things that we truly want to do in our lives. How do I find time for my daunting to do lists everyday but not find time to make my true to do list a priority in my life?

I never make new years resolutions simply because I never ever stick to them and then those are just more things to add to my should of could of would of's list. So this year I have decided not to make any resolutions because when I think about that term making resolutions does not make sense to me.

A resolution is a profound decision to do or not do something. In reality the only resolution I make every year is to not stick by my resolutions. Instead of resolutions, we should really come up with SOLUTIONS. We make resolutions based on problems we are having in are life. Just claiming to commit to them isn't going to actual solve them. I used to make a resolution every year that I was going to lose ten pounds. Did I ever? No of course not; just because I said I was going to lose ten pounds didn't mean I actually did it. What I needed was a solution, a way to resolve this issue, something I never created in my creation of resolutions.

So this year I am going to make solutions. I want to stick by my to-do list, by at least completing one thing a month. This is of course at the very least. Some things on my list can only be done in the winter, or the summer so obviously the seasonal list items are going to have to take precedence while it is still cold and snowy.

I'll let you know how that works out for me though. I am also going to spend my New Years in a good way this year. I cannot remember the last time I truly did what I wanted to do on New Years. I was always tied down or doing what a boyfriend wanted to do or I've worked at the bar and any single new years. So this is going to be my first New Years semi single, not working and I am going to enjoy it as I wish.
