Resolutions

Typically I don't do New Year's Resolutions.  This year, I have had a few goals rolling around in my head.  There are parts of this year I am dreading.  I know they are coming.  It is how I choose to act and react to them.  Also now is as good of a time as any to do something about the goals I want to achieve.

1. Read the Bible.  I have wanted to read the entire Bible since I was a teenager.  It has never happened.  There have been several times I have worked on this goal.  But I have never finished it.  This is quite ridiculous as how much I read.  I dusted off my "One Year Bible".

2. Lose 30 pounds by my birthday.  I essentially have 9 months to do this.  I have tried to lose weight in the last few months.  It has not gone well.  I'm thinking there are several reasons.  Some medical and not in my control.  Some medical and in my control.  Although I really don't like the choice(s) I really need to make.  Some is I just haven't been dedicated enough.  So I have a game plan S0uth B3ach Diet until I lose about 25 lbs, then to transition to the D@SH diet.  Dash I'm not that familiar with, but with what I have read, I should try.

3.  Stop yelling as much.  I have always been a yeller.  My whole life.  There have been points where I have done it less, with effort.  As stress goes up, it comes back.  I have to consciously drive it back.  I need to get it down.
