New Year’s Resolutions

  • Sharebar

 

It’s about that time…With 2009 here, did you make your resolutions this year? I know, I know… people rarely fulfiill them and normally forget about them by mid-January, but I think its important to remember why we make resolutions in the first place.

 

New Year’s resolutions exist solely to make us better people. To help keep us moving forward in the game of life. So even if you fail, I would argue that it’s better to have tried and failed than to have ignored your faults all-together, right? Its a great opportunity to examine your faults and improve oneself.

 

So with that being said, I have one fun resolution, and one serious one. For starters, I resolve to “get back to my Kansas City roots” and start calling “soda” “pop” again! After 12 years of living in mid-MO, I’ve lost my pop-ways. Sigh… (that’s the not-so-serious resolution, obviously).

 

My serious resolution is very general, but I prefer them to be. I feel the less-defined, the easier it is to stay on the resolution wagon. Therefore, I resolve to make an honest attempt to eliminate negativity from my life. It’s something I resolve to do pretty much every year – and I’m getting better at it with age. I think negativity is the easy way out, and nothing good really comes from it. I’m pretty good finding the downside of negative situation, though. So this is a resolution that is right up my alley.

 

So now it’s your turn! What are some of your resolutions??

    Hey…this is Chastity. I made a New Year’s resolution to lose weight and I’m actually still sticking to it. Here it is February. Your show is hilarious. I liked the “gum” comment you made about Michael Phelps this morning. At least I think that is you.

    I don’t make resolutions but my friend has made a resolution to quit smoking and is having a tough time. I know at one time you had quit smoking and you said that it was from a book. (the one where you are supposed to smoke while you read it) Could you by chance give me the name to that book?? Thanks so much!! Love your show btw…listen to it every morning!
