2.ill quit drinking but on New Years Eve they're drinking till morning.
3. ill start dieting but when mom,dad,bro,sis, birthday they start eating sweets and bunch of cakes and ice creams.
4. ill start saving but year 2009 they have their shopping list ( gadgets, clothing, bags, shoes, watch, books, jewellery, etc..
5. ill be more loving and caring person but every month they fight with their boyfriends/girlfriends or spouses.
6. ill start going to the gym ( yah right for 3,4,5 sessions and that's it?)
7. ill stop driving while drunk - I just drove yesterday drunk. hehehe

Me, got to admit i had list of resolutions but i'd never do it or followed. Cant do it for one whole year. Maybe on the wishlist side - yeah I achieved some of it.

I usually succeed in my New Years resolution to enjoy life. It is not that hard if you put your mind to it.

Usually it has to be something that you have to do. Or can do every day.

I don't make any.

You don't have to wait for next year to arrive at your doorstep in order to accomplish something in your life.

My motto, just do it. No excuse whatsoever to delay it, just do it.

I have always kept the same one for the last 10 years: don't get fat again. So far so good. Nothing wrong with being heavy, but I have been a lot happier since my large days in high school.

The other resolution I never have much success with is "to go through life without looking stupid."

And no one should have to make a resolution to stop drinking and driving...it is just a giant "NO NO."

Probably very few.

I have written a post to my blog about taking a different approach. Visit my blog to read it.

In short I encourage people to base their resolution on their personality traits and not on what others want them to be. They also need a friend to come along side and encourage them as they struggle with whatever it is they want to change.

The reality is change is difficult and can be discouraging because it does not happen overnight.

Have a terrific 2009.

Losing weight has always been there but I never achieve that.

I made a New Year's resolution at least 10 years ago never to make any New Year's resolutions again. I've held fast to that ever since.
