This year…. I will quit smoking…. I will go to the gym 4 times a week and I will pay off all my debt…. I will also lose 20lbs by summer. (The last one is my personal favorite since it is on the top of my list!) But seriously, let’s just cut the crap because we all know perfectly well that most people rarely fulfill any of their New Year’s Resolutions. I sincerely hope I can lose those 20 lbs by summer but let’s just say I won’t be kicking myself if it doesn’t happen because that’s life.Despite the fact that New Year’s Resolutions are seldom kept, it doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t still make some goals at the beginning of a new year. It’s a great time to reevaluate your life and take time to analyze whatever parts of it that you may not be particularly pleased with.
This year, why not try adding something way more important to your goals for the year and then bump it up to number one on the list. Often we focus so hard on cutting back on those dirty cigarettes or shedding those few wretched pounds that we can easily forget about the goal of nurturing the things in life that truly make us happy.
This year, make it your goal to remind the man in your life how much you love him on a more regular basis. Normally I would recommend NOT making New Year’s resolutions that require daily commitment. However, in this case I’m throwing that idea out the window. Tell him every single day that you love him. Make sure he knows how much you enjoy spending time with him. Make it your goal to be more aware of the small things he puts an effort toward and be sure to praise him for it.
Nowadays with the stresses of life, especially during these difficult economic times, it is more important than ever to embrace all the ways in which our lives are blessed. This year, make yourself a love resolution. Be resolved to love and love well and to make that resolution stick! “The greatest thing you’ll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.”
