Alright 2014, here we go!

Happy New Year everyone! I trust that you all had a safe NYE and a nice holiday season (the season of misery and obligation for many!). I have been grappling with my plan for 2014 for awhile now. Do I set resolutions? Well I have been doing that for years and every year it is the same thing, I lose my steam a month in. Do I continue on my goal to lose 100 pounds? I think that will always be something I am working on in the background but I don't want it to be my focus anymore. The scale can suck it! A few days ago, I came across this very cool meme that really resonated with me:

I LOVE this idea because it is like setting intentions for the year versus setting resolutions. All you have to do is keep this in mind and just TRY. Try to do better every day. While what I posted above was awesome, I wanted to take it a step further and personalize it. I know what I need to work on, now more than ever, so making a list like this made sense to me. Mine isn't as pretty but I am going to post this everywhere!

 

 

I am hoping I can get this made into a nice looking 8.5 x 11 so I can put it in my office, my bathroom, our family room and my wallet. It addresses all of the areas in my life that I NEED to do better. I don't have to be perfect but I need to try harder every day. My next blog post will be discussing how I am going to make some of this happen but for now, I am going to absorb as much as I can.
