Honestly, I usually forget about or abandon my New Year’s
resolutions by the time I get back to school and start the spring
semester. I think that I do a lot better
with more general life goals, which I eventually want to complete—in one year
or many.
I recently found that I’m not the only one who does this;
I’ve recently found many blogs with a “Life List,” which is a space for long
and short term goals. I also included my ideas about how to keep up with
2012
Educational Goals
Write ALL
papers ahead of time
Punch Out
Procrastination
Means to achieve: planner, scheduling, prioritizing time,
working on time management and discipline. Waste less time online by designating time to catch up with blogs and youtube.
Health Goals
Run 1x a
week
Yoga or
Cardio 1x a week
Means to achieve: Exercising with friends, using mornings
before class.
Financial Goals
Pay off
Discover Card debt ($870)
Stick to a
budget
Limit &
Record Purchases
Save $1000
by the end of the year
Means to achieve: Using financial refunds wisely, using
mint.com budgeting tools, discipline, planning purchases.
Beauty/Fashion
Spring
Cleaning of Wardrobe
Organize
and Prioritize Clothes
Finish a
Product before Buying more
Limit
Purchases
Means to achieve: Prioritize my wishlists/wants so they
don't become overwhelmingly numerous. Allow myself only a few select & coved
items at a time. Mainly re-focusing my energy away from "things" that I don't really need.
Other Goals
Travel out of state overnight (VA
and MD don't count)
Life List
Buy a Car
Get Rook Pierced
Get Infinity/ Cherry Blossom Tattoo
Find an Apartment
Travel to California

do you think you'll stick to these goals? I always make out my list and soon as I start skipping over things I just give up on it all. do you have any advice on sticking to goals especially financial goals?
@Kitty
One thing I did to help me get closer to y goals is involve my family and friends because they'll help keep me going for longer. That really helps especially with fitness. For the financial goals I think find that using mint(dot)com and only using cash to spend really helps keep track of my budget. My problem is going to be online shopping b/c i love it, so If i can cut down on those things I'll call myself successful. lol almost counts
