What a pleasure it was to select the perfect 2023 weekly planner online. My mail carrier heedlessly smashed the package into my mailbox, but the planner inside turned out to be fine. Beautiful, in fact. I have always loved notebooks and such, as well as organizational methods. I have been enjoying planning out the details of my week this week. And I get to do this 51 more times this year! What a treat. But why do some calendars start on Sunday and some on Monday? Isn’t that unnecessarily confusing in objects that, after all, are designed to make things easier on our brains?
My New Year’s resolutions this year are all about health. Mind, body, spirit. At the beginning of my planner is a section for listing yearly goals, and I have a long list. Exercise more. Eat better. Increase my brain functionality in a variety of ways. Meditate more. Start doing some of the things I have not been able to do the past few years. Make progress slowly. Embrace imperfection. Express gratitude. Write. I also wrote down six concrete goals that are a real stretch, that might not actually happen in 2023 but that I’m working toward. What are some of your New Year’s resolutions?
Thank you for sharing. What are your big resolutions. I don’t make them. I don’t like the word resolution. The word assignment triggers movement for me. Old tapes playing from. School days. Though I dare say, triggers anxiety, too. Most helpful is to meditate for a few minutes each morning and be reminded by a wise voice to have fun. I have six homemade post cards or cards I’ve agreed to make. Participating in Spark. Snail mail. Today I will thing of designs, doodle ideas.
Hi Jean, I think that’s wonderful that you have found what works for you. I’ve always loved getting organized at the beginning of the year. It sounds like you have some great projects planned.
Happy New Year Liza. I like your resolutions. If I did resolutions I’d probably start meditating again and do yoga. But for better or worse no resolutions in 2023. Hope all is well and wondering if SBC will be meeting again? Elizabeth
Happy New Year! Silent Book Club is on hiatus right now. I’m trying to get my health in order….
