It’s that time of year again where we all set ourselves, usually unachievable goals for the New Year ahead.

The most common resolutions are losing weight, getting fit, giving up smoking and alcohol.  This year I’ve decided to do all of the above – hoping that I’ll at least manage one of these, but as if you’re like me these will probably last through until the 10th January (or to the end of the month if I’m lucky!)

Maybe my new year’s resolution should be never to make a new year’s resolution again – at least I’ll be able to actually achieve that.

Perhaps we should give ourselves some less painful and more achievable goals – like learning a new word each week, learn a new skill or simply to tidy out the drawer that everything gets thrown in.  Wearing a piece of clothing that contains colour once a week or making sure I eat breakfast every morning.

New Year’s resolutions should be more about setting goals for the year ahead – it’s a time to put the past behind you and look forward to the future with optimism.  

I want to know if anyone has any unusual resolutions for 2010 – why not share them it may help you to keep on track?

Best wishes for the New Year ahead!
