The past many years I have not had any resolutions. Mainly because I feel I should be working on myself all the time, not just at new year's and also because I get so down on myself if I don't accomplish something. Generally I would write a lot of goals that were hard for me to accomplish so I would just quit because I was overwhelmed.
For some reason this year feels different. I am determined to change some things. If I write them down and put them where I will see them I am hoping this will make a difference in my accomplishing at least part of them.
1. Read scriptures and pray daily. Notice I have not set a time limit on the scriptures. I hope to study them, but if I only get 1 verse, I will feel accomplished.
2. Family history at least 1 hour per week.
3. Declutter the house and dejunk (this will take all year)
4. Run 1000 miles. At least 3 half marathons, hoping for 1 per quarter. My first one is scheduled for February 22nd. Bryce Canyon in July and hopefully Little Grand Canyon, Cedar City or Halloween Half in Sept/Oct as well as Fish Lake Relay in August.
5. Journal or blog at least once a week.
6. Save at least $20.00 per month. This sounds little, but I've never been a saver so gonna start small.
7. Add 1 item per month minimum to food storage.
8. I'd like to say I'm swearing of candy and sweets, but that is just realistic. I can't even do it 1 day. So, instead, I will try to make more healthy meals for my family and hopefully eat more raw foods.
9. Read at least 1 book a month.
10. Attend the temple once a month.
I could go on and on in ways to improve, but before I overwhelm myself, I'm gonna stop. Feel free to share your resolutions too.
