slo’s MONDAY 12/30 poll - New Years Resolutions 📝

[slo]

It’s hard to believe that the end of the year is upon us. It’s time for us to start thinking of our New Years Resolutions. Some people think that New Years Resolutions have to be big goals like….losing 50 lbs, becoming debt free, exercising and etc. But they don’t need to be, they can be as small as……reading a little bit more, being on your phone a little less, making your bed, being a little kinder to people and etc. Are you ready to set New Years Resolutions? Enquirering minds want to know……

Do you set New Years Resolutions?
If yes…..do you do this every year, or just some years?
If yes…..are you good at keeping them?
(multiple choice)



For Me……..I make New Years Resolutions some years. I’ll fully admit that there are some years that I’m not motivated to make resolutions. This year I’m making a couple…send more cards (I’m terrible about sending cards) and getting to bed by 9:30pm. I’m going to give these resolutions my best effort.

 

[Meriweather]

No, never have.
I try to make improvements and do things better at any time of the year

 

[WDWEPCOT]

I do try to do them every year so I hit some I don’t it’s a work in progress

 

[bobbiwoz]

I never really made NY resolutions.

 

[Kathryn Merteuil]

I do it some years.... sometimes I am good at keeping them.

 

[Micca]

Go to bed by 9:30? I'd need to make a resolution to stay awake that late! Good luck with your plans Sandy!

 

[hertamaniac]

I don't make them. Failure is 24/7/365.

 

[leebee]

Go to bed by 9:30? I'd need to make a resolution to stay awake that late! Good luck with your plans Sandy!

I'm lucky if we have the kitchen cleaned by 9:30! We are night owls here! My goal is to be in bed by 11, lights out by midnight. Doesn't always happen.

I usually don't but I hope to in 2025. I'm going to try to get into running again. I did a half marathon years ago and I would like to train to do a full marathon sometime in the future. I remember really enjoying it and idk why I stopped.

 

[AppleDumpling]

Sometimes I make them, sometimes I don’t. Sometimes I keep them, sometimes I don’t. LOL, usually nothing too serious, but I’m always open to change for the better and the new year is a good time for self-reflection.

 

[Dan Murphy]

9:30 is a good target. I get that now and then.

No NY resolutions here. I make and break them as I go along.

 

[Wood Nymph]

I used to make them, but not anymore. If I want to make an improvement, I should do it right away, not wait for some arbitrary date in the future.

 

[PollyannaMom]

Some years I've made them and some I haven't ... some years I've kept them and some I haven't.

This year I'm considering a Bingo card of things I'd like to do instead. I came across the idea on Instagram. Here are a couple of examples:

When I was younger I made resolutions, lose weight or whatever. I stopped when I realized that (for me at least) a resolution that gets broken is just a way of making myself feel bad for failing.

My NY resolution is to continue parking far away from commercial front doors to intentionally walk and continue to save civilization by pushing into the corrals in the parking lot..... with a

Same one as always. Never to make a New Year's Resolution.

 

[The Mayor]

I don 't make them and never have. It's tough improving on perfection so why bother

 

[lovin'fl]

I make them but never keep them. This year I have a couple: eat healthier and be more positive. Won't last long.

God willing to become fully and permanately recovered from feet and leg issues. To be able to go out normally even to throw out trash let alone help my dad with errands, go to church, or Disneyland. Definitely to never take any safe mobility I have for granted again.
