What are your resolutions???

2009...
Andrew said that I can only have five new years resolutions this year- and that they have to be realistic good ones, not far fetched, dreamy ones like winning the lottery, moving to an island and buying 10 more puppies. Drat.
It's been a pretty big year for me- my business took off unexpectedly, I was published and this little blog has more than a handful of readers, which still amazes me. There is much to improve on though!
1) Get organized and SIMPLIFY. Starting with my office and moving through the rest of my life- finances, purses, calendar, etc. Get rid of things I don't use and streamline our house so it's more efficient. I think life would be easier if things were more in order and there was less "stuff" around! I think Real Simple will be my 2009 bible.
2) Worry less about everything- what others think, expectations, money, my "life plan", the world, my health, my sanity! Be more present on a daily basis and reap the rewards of focusing on the now and not the later.
3) Commit to my new found yoga practice twice a week. And eventually hold this pose (scorpion) by myself (I can do it with assistance from my teacher, but I fear he's doing all the heavy lifting!)
4) Write more. I really love writing, and I've been doing much less of it since business got busier. I need to take an hour or two a week to work on writing, for myself or freelancing for publications.
5) Work as hard as I possibly can on making my business and this blog the best it can be!
** 6) I just remembered this and had to add it. I want to learn French and FINALLY go to Paris (and perhaps learn the secret to dressing this chic naturally).
What are your resolutions???

I think your new year is off to a wonderful start with these goals....simplifying is one of my top goals, as well! Come to think of it, I need to renew my Real Simple subscription :)
I don't do big resolutions anymore, but my primary goal for next year is to focus more on quality, not quantity, in my everyday life. That goes for everything, from shoe and handbag purchases to how I communicate and spend time with the important people in my life. I want to be more mindful of who and what I have in my life and not just collect things for the sake of collecting. That means taking more time and thought to appreciate what I have, as well, instead of pining for things I really don't need or want.
Cheers to a healthy, happy, and stylishly streamlined new year! Looking forward to your posts in the new year.
I so agree Enza- quality over quantity is such a great way to live! I need to add that to my list!
I like to start the new year off with an insane clean,organized living and work space. I'm the type of person who can not function if there is disorder. New Year's Day is my time to prioritize.
That, and exercise more regularly. So cliche, so true.
Happy New Year!
these are wonderful goals. many are on my list too. hope you have a wonderful new years!
Great suggestions!! Mine would exercise:) Its always exercise.
You've got it together! I am still working on my resolutions. Going on vacation Friday, taking a journal and going to really think it all out and write it down!
Yoga is one of the things I want to try until... I saw that scorpian pose!! YIKES!
I love your blog and think it is so great that your business is doing so well! It is refreshing to hear some good news in the midst of so much talk about people losing their jobs. Bravo to you!
Happy New Year!
Worrying is a HUGE one for me. That and stress management! Great resolutions and here's to a Happy New Year!!
What a great and inspiring list!
