I've noticed that my resolutions involve me not doing stuff that I wasn't going to do anyway so here's something more positive. I'm going to retrain as a Latin teacher in a provincial public school.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
For many years, I tried to make New Year's resolutions. I made lists and shot for great heights: I would show altruism and exert moral strength, patience and all those other great attributes.
Resolutions are a wonderful thing if we can keep them, but many resolutions go by the wayside because we have not done anything different with our mindset.
A New Year's resolution that I can never keep? To be able to make decisions.
Recast your current problems into proactive goals.
Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other.
I've reached most my goals and when my career is over I will have many other things to do.
Goals help you overcome short-term problems.
My one thing is I continue to be interested and want to be a student. I don't want to be a master. When I'm learning something, I'm in my element.
I don't do resolutions, as I am a rebel without a cause in that respect - I always break them by the second of Jan.!
I never really make solid resolutions. I think if there's something one needs to change with oneself, it doesn't have to happen in the New Year.
