I love a resolution. I hate that they’ve gotten such a bad reputation over the years. What’s so wrong with trying to change something about yourself for the better? Sure, there are bad resolutions (lose weight, etc.) (actually that’s the only bad resolution, I think), but there are so many good ones you can take on. ENTER LIZ.
Read at least one book per season.
Start doing pilates again. I used to love pilates and then abandoned it once my old gym closed down. More pilates in 2020.
Juice at least five times a month.
Take Baby Dog on an adventure at least twice a season.
Properly go on a date with Nathan at least once a month.
Try at least one new restaurant each month.
Submit pieces to publications at least five times each month.
Go to at least one literary event every two weeks.
Save $50 every Monday until June to use for Europe spending money.
Once a month, call at least one person I haven’t talked to in awhile to catch up.
Every time I buy something new, I’ll donate or throw out one piece of clothing.
And just to stay on top of things, I wrote a reminder on the 15th of each month to re-read these to refresh my memory of what needs to get done.
(UPDATE: To see how these resolutions went, come on over here.)
