Happy New Year

2006. Hard to believe that a new year has started. Do you make resolutions at the beginning of a new year? I think it is a good idea to create some resolutions or goals. Write them down too, that way you will have a greater chance of success.

Here are some ideas: Lose weight (that is always on the list). Be kinder. Learn something new. Do something to help someone else and do it without concern for how it will benefit you. Buy a new green plant and try to keep it alive for the whole year. Call an old friend. Find a new recipe and make it (this is a good Saturday night activity for a family or a couple). Quit a job you hate. Save money by eating at home more often and at restaurants less often. Listen.
