New Years Resolutions

Every year I make the usual resolutions in my head; lose weight, get healthy, become more organized etc etc. Some times I keep them sometimes I don't. In general I make it a practice all year long to try and improve my life but for some reason we all put a special focus on New Years. I am going to post for the remainder of this week posts specifically related to resolutions.  Unique or inspiring you be the judge.

Resolution 1 - Pay It Forward

A surprising way to help yourself is to help someone else. You can work more miracles in your own life, simply by helping someone else. And there are plenty of people in need.
 
What if you don't have the time or resources to spare? Don't worry about it – you can make this as easy and unobtrusive as you like.

Make a new resolution to simply smile at a stranger at least once every day. A smile can go a long ways, passing from person to person and warming the hearts and souls of potentially millions of people.

 
But if you do want to do more, and really see the difference you're making, go for the gusto.

Volunteer at your local shelter or soup kitchen. Buy a bagged lunch and hand it out to a homeless person. Go through all those old clothes, shoes, coats, hats and scarves in your closet and bag them up for your local Goodwill or Salvation Army.

If you have the time, patience and desire to do more, sign up to become a Big Sister or Big Brother. You can make a world of difference in a child's life, which is an investment in everyone's future.

    Dawn,
    Your blog posts are excellent. I think I may be a little jealous that they may be better than mine ;)
