2012...simply.

OK, so here we are again...it's a new year. A time to set resolutions, a time for goals, a time for betterment of every man and woman.... OK, OK, so how many have already broken all of your resolutions and forgotten about your goals and have in fact become a worse man or woman?? Well, maybe you haven't become a worse person but I am sure you have had a smoke or a big ol' slice of cake...but I haven't, because I am wonderful....joke. I actually gave up smoking YEARS ago but I am back on my healthy lifestyle again...that's fancy talk for diet.

My resolutions were as follows
      -Stop eating, or lose weight, whatever

So, that's it. There is no point in trying to set 50 resolutions because that sets you up for failure. I know I can lose weight...I don't know if I can get to my goal weight so let's just try that one for now. Once I do that I will try another one like, win the lottery.

Another resolution is to get organized, now my Director would tell me to use this opportunity to plug my business as a Thirty-One Independent Consultant and get you to buy organizational products from me but I wouldn't do that to you (Please go to www.mythirtyone.com/jcash to learn how you can get organized at home and on the go) I am sure you have all you need to get your house in order (My 31). But seriously, I have begun organizing my house (with 31) and I have been getting rid of so much stuff!! I would like nothing better than to have my house completely void of ANY clutter, ANYwhere but for now I have kids...one of them small, so there are toys everywhere and art supplies and books about Pigeons driving buses...it is my life and I can't donate it yet. Soon, well not soon, about seven years or so. But you get the idea...just get rid of it! If you haven't looked at it since 1991...toss it. I live in an apartment so I just had to come to terms that I just don't have room for all the crap I had.

Another resolution is to take more pictures...so then you end up with  is 253 pictures of January 1st and 2nd and then NOTHING! Or you do well for a while, print them out and then they sit in a pile waiting to be framed or cropped into a collage you wanted to make for your mom but never get around to it...oh, is that just me then? Oh well, I really want to frame those pictures...

Save money is another popular one...but isn't this the MOST obvious one? Don't you think that if you had the money LAST year you might have saved something?? But no, you wanted to go to that baseball game and eat at the priciest restaurant in town or that cute little kid comes around asking you to buy girl scout cookies...which, by the way, directly affects you resolution to lose weight..or your local My Thirty-One Consultant comes over... never mind, you get the point. Saving money is a pointless resolution...how about make MORE money. That could be a good one!

Either way, just try your best to do what is right and healthy and everything should be fine in 2012 for you. Settle debts...just get rid of it. Declutter your place...just get rid of it. Eat healthy, lose weight...just get rid of it. I see a trend...I think it's SIMPLIFY!

2012, the year of simplification. LET"S DO IT!
