WHAT'S YOUR GOAL FOR THE NEW YEAR?

12/27/2014

 
It's the time to set new goals. What goal have you set for yourself for the new year? Tell us and at the end of the month (January 30th) we'll draw a name and send some lucky determined person a bit of Sheila inspiration: a copy of her books Bikini Season and Small Change (both about making important life changes). Happy New Year!

My goal is to lose 15 pounds this year. I've always wanted to lose but now my doctor says it is past the "want" phase and in the "must" phase.

I don't have much will power so I really need to work hard at this.

My goal for the New Year is to be more accepting of what happens in the coming year. Worrying over what might happen isn't helping things. Accepting bad things happen and working on fixing them is much less of a strength drainer.

I want to spend more time studying my Bible. Seems like that falls into the do it later so many times, and I know that's what I should be doing first.

I'm going to get MOVING! I have chronic pain issues, but I know all about "use it or lose it," so I'm going to make sure I get a walk EVERY DAY! I know my doggies will appreciate this, too. Going to find some warm walking gear (it's cold and snowy here in CO!), and off I go! Happy New Year! :D XOXO

I guess with my son getting married July 11 this year I should try to lose a few pounds so I don't look so puffy in the wedding pictures. But on the other hand he'll get married whether I'm thin or fat, right?
I've read Bikini Season and loved it but I'd live to win Small Change!
Happy New Year!

I don't like to keep goals but more to strive for maintaining my goal weight throughout the year and to revamp my exercise routine by adding an additional workout class in addition to what I already do. Also to keep very strict tabs on my money.

Sorry, Sheila,
I stopped making New Year's resolutions or goals years ago. My only goal this year is to make it thru my fifth back surgery alive and still able to walk. I also pray every day that more people allow God to help them with their problems.
Well, I guess I do have goals after all! LOL!

A victim walking through sand looks down and sees dirt, and a victor sees that as ingredients for building a castle. I need to stop being a victim of things and become a victor.

I would love to be able to let things go. I have a hard time letting stuff go and think about it at odd moments or can't sleep because things are bothering me and wish I could handle things in a different way. I will be working on it this year and hope to find some peace.

This year my goal is the same as last year. It is that for every 10 Romance books I read, I read a Classic. So far I have read all of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Jack London. This year I am concentrating on Hemmingway and Daphne duMaurier.

Virginia Lloyd

One of my daughter-in-laws has a saying that really speaks to me. As a mother of six and grandmother of sixteen, I am a worrier. Therefore, my goal for this year is to live by the saying below and accept the fact that I cannot make everything right for those I love for...
"It is what it is!"

I plan on getting out and exercising more. I have joined a bike group and it has helped me a lot on forcing myself out the door. Good health is a good reason to get out and go have some fun.
