Happy New Year!

What better way to kick off a new year than with changes!

New Year's Resolutions? No.

This year I've decided to take on a new twist to the New Year's Resolutions. Instead of making 1 or 2 promises and trying to keep them for a whole year, this year I'm going to take on one new commitment a month. I'm going to explore things I've always wanted to do, things I've been terrified to try or never had time or energy to even attempt.

I'm going to take on one new commitment a month. My list so far: (in no particular order)
  1. Eat Raw
  2. CrossFit
  3. Yoga
  4. Sex
  5. Prepare Non Processed Foods & Snacks
  6. Use no Disposable Products
  7. Eat only Local Foods
  8. Enjoy North Carolina - Manteo to Murphy
  9. Explores my Artsy/Crafty Side
  10. Minimize my Carbon Footprint
  11. Read for 30 minutes a day
  12. ..........still thinking.......
The challenge is that every month I'll take on one of these and do them every day for 30 days. I can do anything for 30 days, right?? It's been argued that a month's time frame is all you need to break bad habits and build new good ones. Working within some general guidelines for each (I can't actually spend an entire month exploring the state) I hope to take some lessons learned and incorporate at least a small aspect of each commitment into my life, permanently.

So here's to 2012! Happy New Year!
