New Years Resolutions?

I do not like the idea of New Year’s resolutions, I never make them, but this year I’m starting early on what could be considered a resolution; quitting vaping. I’m 2 days clean of it, it’s been hard as all hell but I know I’ll feel better in a couple weeks.

How about you guys? Anyone making and New Year’s resolutions or getting a head start on them? No time like the present!

Just one: exercise. No other real constraints, expectations...just exercise. 5-minute walk or a 40-minute lifting session, either one is fine.

Don't end up in a jail cell or padded room.

Put the pounds on again, just a fat potato.

Def going to say do something, and then do nothing.

job,more cardio,cosplay props and such,relunch my Amazon store and a few other things.

Actually I thought about it more I want to astral project.

I gave up smoking tobacco this month, so I started early. Other resolutions: Exercise.

I want to find a new job and move abroad.

@johnd13: Anywhere in particular?

New Years Resolutions is a vain attempt to achieve something you could have otherwise done throughout the year anyway. It's also an excuse people make to change their lives for the better, waiting until that fateful day to actually do something about it. "I'll start doing (insert) next year!" Resolutions are almost always never kept. Case in point: The gym.

If you're wanting to do something to better your life, just do it. Waiting for a specific day as if it gives you power and strength is silly. I once knew this girl who swore right then and there that she would start eating healthy, but then she immediately said, "I'll do it tomorrow." A lack of self-control and/or discipline is ultimately why most people fail to keep their self-made promises.

Now I'm not saying that I haven't made resolutions to myself and failed or lost interest. Even in my adult years I've said to myself that I would try to actually put effort into my voice acting career, but I just don't have the motivation do it. Not once in my adult life have I made a New Year resolution, though in my youth I may have, but don't quote me on it. I can't recollect a time where I made one.

@DEVILinIRON: Somewhere in central/western Europe. Maybe France or Switzerland. I already live in Europe so it's not a huge leap objectively speaking but as someone who's never lived alone, I expect it to be quite a challenge.

@DEVILinIRON: any tips for beating the cravings? I find I have zero energy dealing with the nicotine withdrawals, just trying to distract myself with video games and reading and cleaning the house the last few days

Nice! Nice was nice when I visited.

I just deal with the withdrawals. Ignore them and power through!

Try to lose a few pounds,trying to cut down foul language,especially when I’m gaming. Cut my intake of salt and sugar as much as I can. I’m going to try to be more pleasant with people, I get pissy/moody with some people. I don’t have a large family but going to try to be more family oriented more often. Those are the main things in my life.

I rarely do any new year's resolutions as I Sodom don't follow it. If I'm being honest about it, my somewhat new year resolution is to get a divorce. I'm thinking about it but try not to take me seriously.

You gotta give us a little more man. We are starving for details. :P

I came up with another one. I need to start finishing books that I've started to read. Furthest I got was The Red Book, 3/4 of the way through and I stopped. The majority of what I read were graphic novels. I really should get back into reading.

Coming to late to work less frequently.

My father in law passed away last year in August (or really early september, but the saga started in August), but before that, for a very long time, he would have people over for breakfast/brunch on damn near every Sunday including myself and my wife, as well as a couple of people from his wife's side of the family.

I have no idea how he managed to pull that together each week tbh, but my new years resolution is to do some version of that once a month with the people who are left. We basically haven't seen each other since the funeral and if I don't do this then there's basically no chance anyone is going to keep it going and we will continue down the path of losing touch and I don't want that. I spent this last weekend getting the house into decent shape, and there's still a little bit more to do, but after that I intend to start having a monthly brunch with the people we use to see and interact with so often. Wish me luck. :)

I want to fap less.
