Happy New Year! Now what?

A new year is upon us and it's time for those good ol' resolutions. Recently, while on an outing with some girlfriends, we discussed resolutions. Our answers confounded me. Why do we women always go big? We always set our resolutions and standards so high, we can't possibly achieve them while still maintaining a balance in our everyday lives. "This year, i'm going to lose 50 pounds!" Oh sure, you don't have enough to do everyday, let's add in a vicious 3 hour exercise regimen ladies!
Perhaps this year, think of going small. Instead of telling yourself to lose 50 pounds, why not ask yourself to take more walks during the week? Instead of stressing over the upcoming Spring Cleaning season, hire a personal attache to assist in sorting, organizing, and selling all of your purged items on Craigslist or Ebay, or even organize your own yard sale!

Going small keeps you sane, happy, and victorious!

Happy New Year, Ladies!
