New year resolutions? I don’t do them. Look, this new year thing is just an arbitrary date. We should try and meet our goals every day of every year anyway.
Still I do try to take stock and make a few self improvements. This year I want to ( in no particular order) do a number of things to promote cleaner living.
Keep fasting, eat more healthily, cut right back on alcohol, move more, read more, journal more, spend less.
Let’s see how we do!
The idea came about as I realised I had sat St my computer for a couple of hours, and not really achieved much at all.
Two hours wasted? Well perhaps it was relaxing, but I hadn’t performed the tasks I had sat down to do.
So I decided that I would, in September, make myself more accountable – to myself.
Then I decided to take this further. Add a bit more self discipline.
So there are three more goals.
Financial. Spend less. See how much I can save by buying less coffee downtown, and drinking more at home. Home brewed is way less expensive, and better quality anyway!
Not just coffee though. Look at all those unnecessary purchases. I might surprise myself, with an end of month budget surplus.
Exercise. Make more use of my gym membership. I’m posing for it, whether I go or not. If time is limited, do v some exercise at home. I have a Wii Fit, some weights and an exercise mat.
Nutrition. Tying in with spending less, watch the food intake more closely. Save money and lose more weight!
Watch this space. I’ll be reporting back.
