How many people do you know that are right now, naming off every New Years resolution under the sun?  How many of those resolutions have you heard year after year and continously see nothing come of those resolutions?

.....Like for instance....

1. Spend More Time with Family & Friends

.....Ok, why now? What is wrong with coming up with that idea and following through, say in June? Shame on you if you aren't spending time with your friends and family already. ...tsk tsk!

2. Fit in Fitness

....honestly...who has the time? Get a dog and go on daily walks. One, the dog will make you fit in the time to walk him/her and in time you'll get fit...unless you care to have poppie floors in your house! Yuck ol mightly!

3. Tame the Bulge

Again who has the time? See the above -or- tighten up the belt and wear tighter clothes...hahaha!     Well....stay away from the tighter clothes of you get a walking happy dog...one you'll look funny and two, I don't care to be shot by the flying buttons that are popping off of your clothes.

4. Quit Smoking

For someone who doesn't smoke like me, this isn't a problem. However if you are a smoker, just smoke two cigs. or more at a time, eventually you'll quit smoking. Just grab the bull by the horns and stop cold turkey....and lock yourself in a room by yourself for a month.   That would be less painful when compared to dying of cancer or some other smoking related diesease.

5. Enjoy Life More

If you aren't enjoying life more as it is, well then stop taking everything in life so seriously....really!

6. Quit Drinking

Quit drinking what? Water, tea, soda, alcohol? Who would ever come up with such a dumb idea such as this?  To say quit drinking is like saying...quit breathing!

7. Get Out of Debt

Yeah right? Unless your rich uncle suddenly changes state and becomes "room temperature",....AND you are in this rich uncles will, you'll  n-e-v-e-r  get out of debt. With the rising prices of everything and lower wages, you'll never get out of the situation that you are in. Even if you get a better paying job in another city with much better pay.....have you stopped to look at the cost of living in the city where the new job is located? I would bet that the cost of living is higher thus giving reason for the higher pay....so in the end with all things being equal, you'll still be just as broke "there" as you are here. Best advise, stay where you are. You'll be richer with friends and family around than any dead or alive rich uncle.

8. Learn Something New

Todays lesson is...resolve to not make new years resolutions, you'll never stick to them.Statistics show that only about 15% of New Years Resolutions are kept. With an 85% failure rate, it's no wonder that the amount of resolutions made is dropping.

9. Help Others

I am trying to help others by seeing the "bigger picture" about New Years resolutions.

10. Get Organized

iAm hIGhly OrGaNiZeD...totally! ...in my own way of course.
