<font color="blue">I know we still have other holidays before New Year's...but I began today on my resolutions (thought I'd try some this year.)

I want to empty or categorize, dub off or delete all my emails IRL.

I want to eliminate all but highly important PMs from this site. (I've already deleted 12 pages of "sent" PMs! I removed 30 pages of "received" a week ago or so.

I want to learn how to use my scanner so I'm not having to think about how to!

..well, that's for starters ++++Getting Started on New Year's Resolutions++++

***Good Thread Topic***

Well, I have never made resolutions, but this year I thought I would TRY to at least: (My Bi-Polar keeps getting in the way of my success)

1. Not be so sensitive over things.
2. Quit asking if it's ok to do things and actually taking that step and doing it. No matter what the out come or consequence may be. ( I do this because I do not want to hurt anyone or the feelings)So I seek approval for everything.
3.Tone down on my shopping.
4.I have low self esteem. Not always but most of the time.
5.I also lack motivation. Would like to gain some of that back.
6.Change my eating habits. I would like to lose a good amount of weight. (I hate the word diet so I won't say it lol)
7.Gain WILPOWER to do things in life. To help me become a better person in all I do.

Sky-Thank you for the opportunity to speak of my resolutions and what I would like to work on in the next year.

I don't make resolutions because I promptly forget them or my priorities change.

JLove mentioned getting some of her motivation back. JLove, if you figure out how, would you let me know? I have none, zero, zilch! ++++Getting Started on New Year's Resolutions++++

well, these are highly stereotypical resolutions...but what the heck! lol

1. start to feel happier internally, not be so senstive as to stuff happening around me, but just be generally happy with myself.
2. LOSE WEIGHT!!! ++++Getting Started on New Year's Resolutions++++

if i can accomplish just a little of #1(not by any means an easy task), it would make the upcoming year sooo much more enjoyable...

I have two that I know are going to be hard but I am going to give it all I have:
1. Lose a little more weight
2. Stop Smoking

They are both biggies and the stop smoking is the biggest and most important one to me!!

Boopers-My boyfriend is doing the stop smoking thing and I just keep reminding him how much they cost and it does help a bit. He has cut down alot, because he is trying to make them stretch. Here they are between $5.50-$6.50 a pack and he just say's it is plan rediculous. So that's what motivates him. Have ya tried looking at it that way?

mellors, if you do 1 and 2, you better not do 3. At least not at the same time.

++++Getting Started on New Year's Resolutions++++

I am adding to my listing:

keep Holford Diet as eating plan.
persevere with sleep routine.
