New Year's Resolutions

Too quickly my tomorrows turn into my yesterdays. Which is why they say never put off until tomorrow what you can do today.

Sometimes ‘they’ are right.

I am sitting here putting off doing things that I need to do and thinking about the upcoming year. 2010 seemed so far away once upon a time. The flying car is getting closer to reality. http://money.cnn.com/2009/11/30/smallbusiness/flying_cars/index.htm

So what shall I resolve for 2010?

USA.gov has a list of the most popular New Year’s Resolutions. http://www.usa.gov/Citizen/Topics/New_Years_Resolutions.shtml

Parent Center has given a good list of possible New Year’s Resolutions. http://www.babycenter.com/0_new-years-parenting-resolutions_67169.bc?scid=bigkid_20091229:2&pe=eZ2LE2

The FLY Lady made 2 New Year’s Resolutions several years back that not only changed her life, but that changed the lives of thousands of those who follow her. http://flylady.net/pages/column4909.asp

All of these suggestions are good. Most are completely applicable to my life. (I don’t smoke, so I don’t need to quit.)

Many, many years of breaking resolutions leads me to wonder ‘why resolve anything’? The optimist in me believes that I can change into a better person. And as a creature of habit, I hereby resolve to be a better person in 2010; to be more organized, lose weight, yell less, watch less TV, spend less, save more, and stop procrastinating so much.

Wish me luck!
