As I grow older, I find that my New Year’s resolutions have become less specific and are more broad in their approach. My goals for 2017 were to be intentional, live with less, and make time for myself. I feel like I definitely was able to achieve the first two as I no longer make decisions based on impulse, and after our big move we’re living with less than we ever have before. The last goal was where I stumbled a bit, and let’s face it, don’t we all struggle with making time for ourselves?

My goals for 2018 are simple:

“I will prioritize my health.”

This year while I of course aim to do better in my quest for simple living, a greener planet, and being kind to everyone (whether it’s someone who has done me wrong or the person who makes my shoes), I also aim to make even more time for my health. Because I have one body and if I don’t take care of it, how can I use it to spend time with those I love and cherish most? How can I do the things that I love when my health is on the decline?

I will make time for more than just bubble baths. I will make time for my physical and mental health. I will quit taking my body for granted and make more conscious decisions about what I allow myself to eat. I am already notoriously dedicated to buying organic and other healthy versions of food, but that doesn’t mean that I easily stay away from things that aren’t good for my body. Sugar is my biggest vice and I hope to be able to kick it to the curb for next year. It sounds crazy, but living with PCOS is always something that I have to think about because it never goes away.

Thanks a bunch for sharing this with all folks you really understand what you’re speaking about! Bookmarked. Please also talk over with my web site =). We may have a link change arrangement between us!

I don’t usually make New Year’s Resolutions. I do more of goal setting than creating resolutions. Goal setting is more structured and I am a creature of habit. Routine is my game. Wishing you all the best in 2018!

I love that you have an inspirational reading list. What a great idea. Good luck in 2018.

I don’t believe in New Year’s resolutions. i believe anything worth doing can be done at any time. I do believe in goals, they are a good thing.

The New Year is always a great time to regroup and reevaluate ones life. I am excited for 2018

Me too! Crossing my fingers it will be a lot better for me than last year.

I really need to put to mind making ways for me to be more healthy in life. I don’t do it enough for sure. I need to make sure I am conscious of the things I eat and the things I do. Thanks for the reminder.

It’s so easy to let it slide by simply because it’s not something you feel like putting a lot of thought into. Best of luck with your journey.
