NEW YEAR,What are your wishes and goals

JDeere · 12-31-2016, 09:43 PM

My new years resolution is to become more independent and keep losing weight.

Chad · 01-01-2017, 11:08 AM

Happy 2017!

Time with friends and family is always my top goal. For the first time in a very long time my family and I are all located near each other. This makes my life as a dad and granddad very happy and complete.

Travel is important to me. I have two trips on the books for 2017 and I am planning to add more trips to the list.

My work is very important to me because I can make an important contribution to the environment. I plan to keep working on the balance between work and fun.

Dating is fun and I plan to "date" more this year. I joined a dating site to help me achieve that goal.

Work hard and play hard in 2017.

For people to be less ignorant
To have less hate
to think before they speak

I don't know that I actually subscribe to doing this, but I might try to do a few of my own self improvements and home improvements too.

It's never too late to be a better person or do something nice to make your home life simpler, more peaceful and enjoyable, right?

2017 was an difficult year for me, but I'm grateful for the few GQQD things in life that's come my way.

Here's to all the days ahead and finding more enjoyment along the way.

I have found de-cluttering my space has worked wonders for me! It's definitely made my life more simpler, peaceful, and enjoyable!

Want to be more successful at encouraging my friends to stop, think, then act.
I'd enjoy going to the Y more often to workout.
Want to achieve top surgery. If the surgeon that I have a December appointment with refuses surgery, I will find second opinions.

JDeere · 12-02-2017, 12:51 AM

For 2018

Get 2 surgeries done if approved

no, Katzchen, It’s never too late.

I just saw this from 2017. It is still relevant, I have loved spending time with my family this year.

One change is that I may slow down on the personal travel to spend more time with mom this year.

I have an awesome life and I am grateful for that.

Kelt · 12-28-2017, 09:27 PM

I want to go home. I am so out of place where I am, not even sure where that is, I split my time between two states and neither place is right.

I may fly down in the spring and pick up a temp apt or something...

'Cause who doesn't want to live in three states, right?

Mopsie · 12-29-2017, 07:32 AM

I've been thinking about the New Year. Normally I like to have goals. The social worker in me likes them to be measurable and realistic. But so far I just have sort of a mantra or a theme for the year.

Balance and consistency.

These are two things that I'm not particularly good at - I have a little bit of ADHD and a bit of an addictive personality so I tend to focus all my energy on one or two things at a time and then refocus something else. When I do that I forget areas of my life that need tending to - often those neglected areas are the ones that involve self care.

I decided to focus on meditation first. My plan is to start meditating each day for ten minutes and increase that time as I am able.

Awesome!! I too have started to mediate daily....I do the guided meditations on YouTube which I find helpful in silencing my busy mind.

A few of my intentions for 2018 include:

Meditation
More balance work/play
Be more creative

I have been meditating most nights. I have worked my way up to about 20 minutes a day although I have to admit that some days I stopped before the 20 minutes was up.

I have really noticed that it helps me stay calmer during the day and more focused.

How is everybody else doing so far?
