I have resisted the flimsy and transient nature of "new-years' resolutions"......it always seems that by February 1st you have either broken, forgotten or lost the desire to keep them up.
Instead I have been jotting down ideas as they float around in my head, trying my best to formulate into some sort of plan. Every year that passes I try to promise myself that I will focus on a plan that keeps the things I value front and centre.
(even if I don't entirely know what those things are).
