New year’s resolutions focus on kindness, action and accountability

HAPPY NEW YEAR! It’s tradition that when one year ends and we reflect on the “old” year, we see where we made mistakes. This gives us a chance to make resolutions for the upcoming year so we won’t make the same mistakes.

I’m sharing my resolutions for 2019 with you. Feel free to use them!
• I resolve to be so strong that nothing can disturb my peace of mind.
• I resolve to talk health, happiness and prosperity to everyone I meet.
• I resolve to make all of my friends feel that there is something in them.
• I resolve to look at the sunny side of everything and make my optimism come true.
• I resolve to think only of the best, work only for the best, and expect only the best.
• I resolve to be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as I am about my own.
• I resolve to forget past mistakes and press on to greater achievements of the future.
• I resolve to wear a happy face at all times and greet everyone I meet with a smile.
• I resolve to give so much self-improvement that I have no time to criticize others.
• I resolve to be too large to worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear and too happy to permit trouble
• And I give God credit for everything in my life.

A FEW EXTRA ITEMS TO CONSIDER AND REMEMBER
• If I move something, I must put it back.
• If I open something, I must close it.
• If I turn something on, I must turn it off.
• If I break something, I must admit it.
• If I borrow something, I must return it.
• If I value something, I must take care of it.
• If I make a mess, I must clean it up.
• If it’s none of my business, I must not ask.
• If it belongs to someone else and I want to use it, I must first ask.
• If I don’t know how to use something, I must leave it alone.
• If I can make someone’s day, I must do it.

Happy 2019!
