Resolutions

Happy New Year!

It is the time of year when many of us start thinking about improving ourselves by making resolutions for the upcoming year. I want to help you get started by tossing our a few ideas.

• Resolve to be thankful for what we already have. I am reminded of a Chinese proverb that goes "I make myself wealthy by making my wants few".
• Resolve to give something back. If you are reading this you have been blessed with more material wealth than most. I hope to be more aware of the need of those who are less fortunate. Join me in giving some time and resources to help those in need. Volunteer for a charitable organization, write a check, give something back.
• Resolve to spend more quality time with those we love. If all our material wealth disappeared tomorrow these are the people who would get us through another day. Kids grow up too fast, Mom and Dad won't always be there, enjoy their company while you can. The moments spent with family and friends are the true treasures of our lives.
• Resolve to improve your health. No one enjoys dieting and few enjoy exercise but having our health allows us to enjoy everything else...and we have a better chance of being here to enjoy it all.

There you go. I believe that is enough for me. If you can think of other resolutions I should consider please click on the comment link and post a note for all to see.
