New Year's Resolutions - 2017





I distilled my intentions for 2017 down to this: Survive. Progress*. Enjoy.

There are some concrete goals under each of those headings, and I'll be setting weekly, monthly, and seasonal goals throughout the year, but after 2016, I figured out that I have a pretty good idea of my desired direction and don't need to make resolutions to figure that out (at least not this year).

I still like the idea of using the new calendar year to clarify my intentions and explore new tools to keep me moving forward.

 This quote is something I'll be thinking of as I set my goals:

There is an Indian proverb or axiom that says that everyone is a house with four rooms, a physical, a mental, an emotional, and a spiritual. Most of us tend to live in one room most of the time but, unless we go into every room every day, even if only to keep it aired, we are not a complete person.
