New Year's Resolutions for 2011

It's that time of the year again. Time to think of things I want to achieve in 2011.... Funny, just the other day I read about "how to write New Year's Resolutions that you are able to keep". Now I beg to differ. Yes, some resolutions should be doable but I do think, you should put some things you might or might not be able to achieve. Maybe you are just not able to achieve them the coming year... maybe you will never be able to achieve them. Nevertheless I believe in putting some dreams and wishes into the resolutions just to make it more interesting and to keep you going. 


I recommend to all of you to write your N Y R's down and keep them safe. Have a look every now and then... or wait till the end of the year and look at them. It's rather interesting how you're life has moved forward from the moment you wrote them to the moment a year later when you read them. 


I had rather a bit of a laugh today when I read my 2010 resolutions. ;) 


Alright, shall we get started? (and yes.. it makes sense to write them down before the end of the year... why not start NOW? Have a "head start" ;) Come on, join me...)


So here are my 2011 Resolutions 

• As every year, trying to loose some of that extra weight

• Still hoping for my breast and hallux valgus OP (well at least one of the two)

• Running a Marathon (Yes I registered for April 8, 2011 Tel Aviv)

• Swimming across the Kineret (21K OW in October)

• Renovating my house 

• Getting a loan from the bank to renovate the house (lol)

• Get engaged to a decent man who loves me

• Put my Doberman on diet

• Get click pedals and shoes for my lovely Dolce

• Swim, Bike and Run more

• Write a book with my great friend G2 (yes we already started.. so stay tuned)

• Working on my "Trust Issues" with my shrink (wonder how that works out at the end)

• Travel around, visiting some great friends (Europe, South Africa, USA)

• Sell the house (wonder how many more years that will make my NYR's)

• Suing my ex lover who still owes me money and avoids talking to me for over a year already.... I am going to get ya!!!

• Finding either a better paid job or a second job so I'm able to have it easier paying the bills and "live" a little

• Making an effort working things out with a certain person

• Swim more with my dogs

• Join a Tri Club

• Try to see things clearer (as for what they are and not for what I want them to be!!! that only breaks my heart!!!) 

I guess that will do.... some are easy to accomplish some won't happen but for me personally it's important to have some dreams and wishes written down and look at them to get going. 


So, what are your New Year's Resolutions??? I dare you ;) 




Happy New Year!!!
