Telling everyone is a great way to get resolutions off the ground and keep yourself from floundering. When you put yourself on the line you will learn to deal with petty failures, to stand up for your resolution when temptation rears its head, and to benefit from the ambient or sometimes concrete support of others. It teaches people - and not all people, not everyone buys into optimism - to relate differently to you for a few days at least so that you have the headspace to change things. Especially when resolving any longstanding issue with other people, so that a good formula to share might be: "I realised that often when I talk to you I have childhood issues in mind, so I belligerently ignore your advice or can't help getting angry about things that might not be real at this time. From now on I want to evaluate everything with a clear head and be straight-talking, and if you want to discuss those issues to put them out of our heads that is great too."

All of which is by way of delivering a tip that when you are really serious about a resolution and don't want to repeat yourself yet again, it is an idea to watch your language very closely to be sure you accept total responsibility for what you are doing, stand a chance of bringing others on board, generating pride in the enterprise (and credibility from a low point can only go up, and that is very valuable), and also not being vague. Instead of "I want to eat less", say "I want to eat healthily", and instead of "I want to be more compassionate", say "I want to be compassionate." Give yourself a position to work from, credit yourself with anything positive, and you'll feel more inclined to keep those resolutions. Doing things by degrees, ie "more" and "less", will feature in the results, just not in the promise. And then your confidence grows around the resolution, and humility around any nonsense that creeps in. You become a person that stands for something, to purloin a well-known maxim, instead of falling for anything.

This is useful for the small things but it is directed at those who get frustrated trying to make big changes.

I managed to make some headway on a few of my resolutions, and even fell back after a great start on others.

This year, nothing. I may want things to stay the way they are for ever and ever and ever. Maybe without the need for a full time job - I don't think I am made for such... exertions any longer.

I dont know why, but next year seems daunting and gives my stomach flip flops when I think about it.

I know I know...Im not that pathetic, really. If they never happen then its okay too. There are a few things on the list, I have written on purpose to motivate me throughout the year, especially during exam times.

I'm glowing inside in excitement.

I'm pretty sure I will too. But lets see how long I hold it for.

It sounds like Im talking about wee.

 

To have the courage to accept the things i cant change and to be happy for the things i have got.

I will try to be less angry, inshallah.

I will try to do an aerial which is a cartwheel with no hands. It probably won't help me much in life, but it may provide a refreshing new prospective.

If I can pull that off, I may try to do a back flip. You guys can get in touch with me via the Trafford General switch board.

I've not made any this year (intentionally) I just want to flow with time...

I like that.

I just made a decision...that I will scrap the list I made for this year.

There were reasons why I made a list last year. And because it was successful...I thought it would be a good idea to do the same for this year.

But, truthfully, looking at the list..I think I am happy as how things are at the minute. I dont need anything. SO..my new years reolution is simply: Make the best of each day. And even if you have a lot on..well deal with it in a systematic way and also..give yourself lots of time to think and relax.

 

great resolution guys

Perhaps it would be more effective and productive to select and stick to one or two resolutions at a time. If you have too many you are unlikely to be able to focus on each and every one to the level it deserves. By sticking to one or two you will be able to focus your energies and be better equipped to achieving your goals, be they getting a job, eating more fruit or exercising more.

May Allah shine sweet faith upon you this day and times beyond. May your heart be enriched with peace, and may your home be blessed always. Ameen.

New Years Resolution: Dont over think things... most things are usually really simple. And the best explanation is usually the easiest one.

New Years resolution no2: Dont blink.............................. dang i just broke it. Oh well one resolution is good enough.

Whatever and Bless in 2010.
