I’m not usually one for New Year’s resolutions. My thinking is that you can make a change any time of the year. But I totally get the desire to reevaluate things. I mean, I spent most of last fall and winter doing just that.

My New Year’s resolutions in the past have been some sort of intention or task to complete. Like, read a book every 2 weeks for the year (check!) or complete 2 rounds of BBG (sort of check!).

So in the spirit of the New Year I’ve decided that instead of a “resolution”, I’ll stick with setting intentions for myself.

To me, intentions at least give you a direction to head. A resolution like “lose weight” is honestly too abstract for most of us to stick with long term. Instead, with an intention like “take yoga classes 2-3 times a week” there’s now a tangible thing to check off your to-do list, and you guys know I’m all about to-do lists.
