Do you remember the New Year’s resolution you made waaaaay back at the beginning of 2022? (Actually, that feels like yesterday, doesn’t it?)
Was it to eat healthier? Lose weight? Exercise more? Save more money? Spend less time on social media? Spend more time with family and friends? (Those are all the most popular New Year’s resolutions, by the way.)
If you can remember your 2022 resolution, and if you even made one, did you stick to it or not? Tell us in the poll below. Do you have the same resolution for 2023? Tell us about it in the comments!
I don’t think that I’ve ever made a new year’s resolution. I figure if something needs changing, doing, whatever, then I do it right then; no waiting for some special date.
Heck, it will take me 6 months to remember that it has changed from 2022 to 2023. Sometimes I still find myself writing 19xx. If I am still “awake” and walking around what difference does it make as to what year it is if I am 39 for the 2nd time?
I don’t make them. A New Year resolution is an admittance that you’re either not doing something you know you should be or an admittance that you know you need to stop doing something you are doing. Either way, you’re not addressing the problem when you should which is immediately when it becomes obvious to you.
My new year’s resolution is the same every year: to wake up every day. So far so good.
Yup like glueing two pieces of stainless steel together with carpenters glue.
I don’t make resolutions, I make goals.
Right on.
And before accepting that goal, I estimate the steps I and perhaps others have to take to get there and assign some kind of probability of staying the course. Such goals give purpose to my life.
My continuing resolution has been to live if I don’t die first. I’ve kept that resolution for almost 72 years.
I resolved to never make a New Years resolution and I have lived up to that faithfully. In the south you have to have black eyed peas on New Years Day for good luck. My late wife was born and raised in TN so I ate black eyed peas for 41 years. With her passing away in 2015 I haven’t ate one blacked pea since. And my luck has changed for the better as I am now remarried to a wonderful lady and living happily ever after. Lol
If it’s that significant for you, do it now. Chances for you to keeping it (Yes-4%), not going to be a success.
Not sure WHAT my New Years resolution was, but if it was to drink beer and gain weight, I NAILED that puppy!!!
😆 Happy New Year, Tom! I hope it’s a healthy and wonderful year for you. 😀 –Diane at RVtravel.com
