Resolutions for 2012

Well it’s that time when we ponder how to make the New Year better.  Resolutions.  Here are some tips for resolutions you can stick to.

• Just pick one thing.  Don’t try to change your whole life style at once.  What do you most want to change?
• Read up on the change.  Diet.  Exercise.  Finances.  Relationships.  There are books on anything you may want to change.
• Anticipate problems.  There will be setbacks.  It’s inevitable.  Know that you can forge ahead.
• Pick a start date.  Maybe New Year’s Day doesn’t feel right for you.  Maybe a week when you are less stressed or when the kids go back to school will be a perfect date.
• Make a commitment and write it down on a card.  Keep the card in places where you might see it several times a day.  Just a short phrase like—Meditation Calms Me or I Enjoy Fruits and Vegetables.
• Reward Yourself.  A whole week sugar free.  Allow your self a small reward.  Some flowers, a magazine, a gift to yourself for your success.  You can do it.  I know you can.
