What shall be my goals for this year?

I don't actually have any goals/resolutions formulated and on paper as yet, but I'm working on it.  I'm feeling good and I'm excited about how things have been going so far.  I know, I know, it's only January 2, lol!  But I had a good day of getting things done yesterday, and that's an encouraging way to begin the new year.

More later on that -- what I want now is to go with an odd thought I had just now, and ask for your help.  What do YOU think I should consider adding to the list as a goal or a resolution when making up my plans for the new year?

If you have any suggestions, thoughts, comments, advice, etc., please share it and don't be shy.  I am truly interested in knowing what you think.

Thanks for your help, my friends!

I don't have any specific suggestions for you, but I wanted to share what I'm doing about resolutions this year. I've listed resolutions and goals. For example, instead of resolving to "lose 15 pounds", I've resolved to exercise 6 days per week and listed a goal of losing a pound a month. I think separating the *goal* from the *action* will give me a better chance at sticking to it.

I do, however, appreciate your resolution to start posting at Walking With Hobbits, and I'm going to join you in that one!

Yes! That's definitely important, to differentiate between goals and how you will accomplish them -- the actions can always be adjusted to make attaining the goal workable, if one doesn't seem to be getting closer to the mark.
