What are your resolutions for the upcoming year? How will you specifically achieve them? Will you likely complete said tasks? And when do you think you may simply give up? (2 months in, 3 weeks after, or 4 days of procrastinating) https://i.ani.me/0343/8966/cat-new-years-resolutions-supreme-conquer-earth-nap-more.jpg BEGIN!

So last year, at some point, I made a mid year resolution that I actually came across in my notes earlier today (see attached). And I was actually successful until I had my injury. I finished several projects. I couldn't bring myself to paint because I have an ongoing block. To get out of my artist funk, I just moved on to a new media, embroidery. So I just dropped some $$$ on gouache paints because I was just too inspired by the stuff I've been seeing in YouTube. I want to try them. I started painting with watercolors as a kid and gouache is similar, more opaque and similar in application to acrylics, I digress, anyway... I'm trying to spend my time creatively. I did get a Switch and I've been playing games but since I'm getting better overall, I want to spend my time more constructively. But yeah, knitting I've tried several projects and never finished them. I bought some nice needles and nice yarns and I still haven't finished a scarf I started like 3 years ago. 8/ My resolution this year is to complete a journal, I bought one with 20 pages and if all goes well I have one with 50 I can move on to.

I don't think I have one, besides getting out of 3rd shift. I like working late, but is anyone really awake at night when I have off? Sleeping all day is boring, and hits hard when I have errands outside of town

Working afternoons is where it's at. Definitely a schedule I miss. Sleep the morning away work until 11pm then freedom to do as you please? Fuck yea

For next year I want to mix things up. Instead of losing money, I would like to save money.

If I could have more than 100€ in my pocket for once, that'd be enough, but whatever isn't spent on bills and groceries, Is spent on useless stuff the I never use/wear

@arc Saving money, haha! Is that's all? Can't imagine anyone else having such lofty ideals!

I have a real resolution this year. I'm planning on actually managing how I feel. By that I mean I am exhausted of letting anxiety decide my mood. It's a fact I can't control world events or how what's left of my family never can catch a break. I don't like letting small details derail my train of thought or feeling I'm not doing enough to meet others halfway. I love the thought of genuinely smiling and meaning it. Not feigning a grin to hide gritting teeth. Tired of eggshells on the floor, so I'm sweeping them up to put away in their bin. I'm entering zen and will make it a point to not say anything negative that isn't necessary. I'm filling my mouth with positive optimism rather than cynical sass! That's my resolution. Letting go of dead weight. My ghosts can kindly take their deserved rest finally!
