2015 New Year Resolutions!

candy_coated_bitch · 12-15-2014, 08:56 PM

I don't make "resolutions" per se. I think "intentions" might be a better way to put it.

I have spent almost every single New Year's Eve by myself with the exception of once or twice since high school. It started out because basically I was an introvert who hated parties and turned into a tradition. I reflect on the past year, journal, do a big tarot reading, watch bad TV, that kind of thing. Just be with myself.

I think that in and of itself is the intention. Continue learning to be with myself, listen to myself, be kind to myself, and work on myself.

I could have written candy coated bitch's entire post

.

I "break in" the new daily planner (I just can't use any days before January), get out my journal, pour a glass of bubbly, and watch Dick Clark's New Years Rockin' Eve.

I've had an epiphany recently that I can't be any good for anyone else if I'm always last on the list and if I'm not good to Grainne first. So that's the theme for 2015-building a life I love regardless of whether I'm partnered or not, even dating or not. My strength, joy, and soul come from within. I've just not been tuned into them for a very long time.

My resolution is NOT to make a resolution for 2015 ~

my resolutions are usually to do projects.

This coming year I plan to downsize and seperate stuff!
And please sort thru all your photos and recipes, at least before the year is up!

I don't make any-- because I feel they're easily broken. So instead-- I work to improve things in my life. I always improve my life by good health, positive karmas, spirituality, prepare good food for my family, exercise for my body and mind, and continued forgiveness to myself and others. Every year I do an altered postcard of all things listed above, write about it-- and keep out throughout year so its a constant reminder.

I am going to work on a financial goal......set an attainable amount to shoot for and make it happen.
