Did you make any New Year’s resolutions? Well here is a compilation of the most popular resolutions.

 

On New Year’s Eve I watched the Dick Clark’s Rockin New Year’s Eve show (I know pretty sad but true). The announcers did a good job of mixing with the estimated 1.0 million people jammed into 10 block area of Times Square in New York City. Consistently the crowd was asked but in different fashions essentially what are your resolutions or changes you will want to make for 2012. Many of us will not to admit to but most of us actually do make resolutions or pledges of behavior change (same thing) when the New Year hits every year. Obviously the true test is how many folks actually stay with their resolution and attain their goal. This is a whole another issue.

 

Here is a listing of the most popular resolutions that folks make each year in no particular order:

·        Drink less alcohol and less often

·        Obtain new education or training.

·        Take time for vacation and take a trip of some sort.

·        Lose weight one way or the other. (This is mine for 2012)

·        Exercise of a regular basis. (another of mine)

·        Find a better or new job.

·        Reduce personal debt and manage money in a better fashion.

·        Quit smoking. At one time I was a smoker and as we all know this is a terrible habit and it can be deadly.

·        Save money and keep it for a needy day.

·        Volunteer to help unfortunate folks with time, money, support or by any possible means. All of us out there should have this item on our list.

·        Help Mother Earth by reducing, reusing and recycling. Another point all of us need to add to our personal lists.

·        Reduce stress which might be very easy to achieve if one follows one or more of the above listed resolutions.

 

Good luck to all achieving your own personal goals during 2012. Do you have any you want to add to the above list?

Hi Bob.   I actually made it to midnight this year!   Your list looks pretty right on.    I hope we all reach what ever goals we have made!    I'll let you know how mine shake out in June!  LOL.

Bon, that's a great list. I personally plan to take some vacation time this year. I have twin daughters who would love to go somewhere fun. Hope you have a great New Year.

Hi Folks,

New Year's resolutions i think do not hjave to be made as soona s the New Year arrives. carol your comment about checking back in June is so correct as most of us give up 30-45 days into whatever we decide to do in the New Year.

Thanks for the comments.

Bob my friend, New Year's resolutions making is something which I have not ever gotten into in my almost 70 years of living. You have posted a mighty fine list of them for folks which do make them.

Have a good one

Hi there Bob, I try to write down goals with great detail...somehow it helps me "see the path" to realizing those goals. Often, it's not enough to say "I'll exercise more." One needs to say, I will walk 3 days a week and lift weights for 2 days a week - or whatever. Then add a reward, such as a new shirt, etc once a certain goal is reached. I like to dangle a carrot in front of my face. At least it works for me. Lol.

I've never really bought into the whole new year's resolution hype. I just keep working and tracking work and results.

I'm resolved to stop making resolutions and make goals instead.  Much easier to build a plan around!

Thanks for sharing and happy new year!
