Posted by: Josef Essbergerresolution (noun): a firm decision to do or not to do something (for example: He never regretted his resolution to stop drinking.)
New year, new start. Have you made any New Year’s resolutions for the coming year? What have you resolved to do – or not to do? Did you keep your promises last year?

Thanks for starting this sort of nice discussion. I do believe that resolutions are important to make our time more fruitful. But it is also important to keep them and try to execute them properly. No, last year I did not have any resolutions but this year I have. I want to write down new words when I would find them. I want to maintain a time table for everything. In this year I want to write more.

I DONT MAKE NEW YEAR RESOLUTION
Yes itās true I donāt make New Year resolutions.
Most people do, and if you do that is fine.
Why donāt I do it?
Because Each Day is a day toward my
resolutions.I found itās easier to make a lot of small
steps, then one big step.Of course itās great to have quarterly and
yearly goals as part of an overall approach,
but itās easier to hit those goals when doing
them on a small daily scale.For example, I daily:
i have my meal on time.
sleep early and wake up early.
Do everything with love.
proving my love to God by obeying His commands
live in the light and let the light shine over my life.
Read the Bible.
Pray.
Share Jesus.
Take care of my family.
Smile.
don’t worry about anything.
and so on.Lots of great daily things that you set up
for your life will give you a great year.Itās so much easier to go small, then go
big.Maybe add 1-2 new daily habits when
you write your New Year resolutions
and see how easy it is.Thank You and God Bless. :)

After a certain age, some of us stop thinking of making New Year’s resolutions.
That doesn’t mean that any generation is too old to make new resolutions, to resolve to change, to start anew or just start new ways. I’m a part of those who have stopped making New Year’s resolutions because I have never kept them.
What’s a New Year if not the continuation of the so-called sequence called Life? The only moment I think of what I’ve done and what I’d like to do in my life, happens at my birthday date. That day I usually make an assessment, then…resolve doing or no longer doing some thing(s). -

My New Year’s resolution is to find a new job. I have just resolved firmly to improve my English. As soon as I improve my English, I will get a new job. I would like to make friends from all around the world and change our idea along us. Happy New Year’s resolutions! Best wishes from Serbia.
