Resolution Recap

 

You know I never wrote any of my resolutions down until I blogged about each one.  I’m kind of curious to write them down in a list and see how they look.  So here goes!

 

• Be deliberate in my computer use.
• Keep working on getting organized—get hot spots under control.
• Be ready for bed at 9.
• Eat more fruits & veggies.  Esp more veggies.  (I served brussel sprouts the other night.  They were not a hit, but I am going to keep trying!)
• Use my driving time (esp calling related driving time) productively.
• Keep track of what I read on Goodreads.

 

Wow—now that I’ve written them all down in a list it really doesn’t look like so much, does it.  And it makes me realize that there are 2 other things I’d like to add to my goals this year.

 

1. Keep track of and act on inspiration that has to do with other people.  Rather often I’ll feel a little prompting to do something for someone—not usually a big grand gesture, but usually something small.  The problem is that I don’t do a good job of keeping track of these promptings, especially if I’m away from home when they happen.  So I’m going to do a better job by using my phone to text the prompting to my email.  I know that sounds like a crazy way to remember, but if it’s in my email later when I check, then I can follow through on whatever I feel I should do.
2. Give baby gifts.  (LOL)  I love people’s babies.  I love it when people I know have babies.  But I never REMEMBER to give baby gifts—even when I already have something here in my house to give!  I haven’t thought of a strategy yet, but I’m going to figure this one out, so that the people I know will know that I’m excited about their babies!

 

I think that one other thing I want to do is schedule a resolution check every month.  I’m going to put it on my calendar right now, in fact I’m going to schedule it for a Wednesday night each month because that’s a time I’m likely to be alone.  I think that this will help me stay motivated to keep working on these things, and also give me a chance to tweak goals as needed.
