New Month's Resolutions: February 2010

This year I decided to start something new to myself. So everyone goes on and on about New Year's Resolutions - whether they keep it or not is an entire different thing. Personally, I believe it might have been easier - and more successful - to establish short term instead of year-long goals. And I also believe that setting those resolutions gives you a boost of self-confidence and energy to go for it - so why not do it every month instead of once a year?

Therefore, that's what I decided to do: every month I'll remember what I'd like to accomplish in that month (or remember what I didn't accomplish in the previous one!) and set my mind to get there. Silly or not so silly, they'll be my goals for the month.

1. Don't forget to set my New Month's Resolutions for March; I didn't do it for January :)


2. Go back to practice Yoga. Keep in mind the reasons why I do it - and why I enjoy doing it. Punch me in the head to get time to do it because I know I want to do it;


3. Write - write more than fan fictions. Get around to write my own stuff and commit to it. Practice through the exercises of my creative writing manual (do at least one chapter a week);


4. Keep my promise to update From This Moment On weekly;


5. Don't get sick again. Beware of colds (this one will have to kick in only next week... I am sick now);


6. Watch Sabrina and try to squeeze in February another of Audrey Hepburn's movies;


7. Have fun on my birthday, whatever way I can, and grant myself that one day to forget about whichever problem might be troubling me;


8. Keep my spirits high, knowing that is the key to feel good most of the time;


9. Spruce up my Spanish, for I might need it to apply for that amazing internship in that amazing multinational;


10. Help my sister find a new job, a job that will actually make her feel happy and that has everything to do with her.

And I guess that's about it, at least for now... I already have a lot of commitments up there. Keeping up with them is a whole different story...
