New Year's Resolutions

Confessions of a non-believer
 
I really don’t believe in New Year’s Resolutions.   But I do believe in continual self-improvement and reviewing the choices we make in life. And New Year is as good a time as any to do that.  Start as you wish to continue is my motto and setting realistic and achievable goals for long term success.
So what will I be working on in 2016:

1. More mindful

In life and with food. In regards to food, here are the tips I’m going to try follow. Eat at the table (not at the computer at night while working). Eat more slowly. Drink more water.
In regards to life, I will try and be less rushed, allow more time to get out the door. And probably going to sleep earlier would help too.

1. More gracious

I was recently at a Christmas party and the host made a lovely speech. She spoke lots about being grateful for the things we have; food, good company, safety. It is easy to see the things we haven’t got or complain when things don’t go our way or targets we don’t reach. But in comparison to most of the world, we are so, so lucky.

1. More active

I have noticed my physical activity levels decline since I am not training for an event. I would like to reach 100 boot camp sessions and participate in two to three running events or I’m considering trying a mini sprint triathlon.

How about you? Might I suggest more colourful eating? :)
