Do you still make resolutions?

Blame it on too many years in corporate America…but I’m a sucker for a good “Action Plan.”  So, each year, on New Year’s Eve, I think about how I’d like my life to look this time next year.  Then I set goals and develop an action plan to try to make it happen.

Remember Do-Overs?

I think it’s the optimist in me, but I love new beginnings.  As adults, we rarely get do-overs, so I take them wherever I can find them.

Many of my friends have abandoned the idea of new year’s resolutions.  My process works for me…so I’m going to stick with it.  (DailyDivaDish was actually the result of a resolution.)

This Year’s List

This year will mark the first time I’ve shared my resolutions with anyone.  I won’t bore you with the action plans.  But here are the goals.

• Improve my photography skills.  No matter where I am, or what camera I use — I do NOT take pretty pictures.  I’ve seen bloggers post pics from their cell phones that are better than mine taken with a camera.  I may need to break down and take a class.
• Read at least one book per month.  I adore books but was so busy in 2009 that I rarely made time to read.
• Organize the master closet.  I feel blessed to have a big walk-in closet, yet I’ve piled in clothes, shoes and handbags, season after season with little or no editing.  And now, every inch of space is crammed so full — I can’t find things anymore.  Goal is to donate about half of my wardrobe.
• As for health, my goal is to end the year being able to run 3 miles without dying or even wanting to die. 

I’m hoping that by posting my goals, I will feel even more accountable.  Wish me luck.
