No More New Year's Resolutions

Happy 2018! I was recently watching a vlog of a person I follow on Instagram and she was talking about how she does not do resolutions, but instead she does what she calls intentions. Her reasoning was pretty good to, so I have decided I’m going to do the same thing. I have never been able to keep a resolution for more than a couple months. When I inevitably drop the ball I feel like a total failure and that never feels good. Intentions are just a little different. You intend to do something, but if it doesn’t work out that is okay. So I have decided that I am going to create a list of intentions this year and come 2019 see if I did any better with my intentions versus resolutions.

What resolutions or intentions do you have for this new year?
