Garibay Soup: New Years Resolutions

New Years Resolutions

It's that time of year again. A time where we all make a bunch of goals that we usually don't make. Last year I didn't make one. This year I decided what the heck... I'm making some and determined to keep them!

I've been pondering over what I wanted my resolution to be all day. I've read other's blogs, I've taken account what friends are doing and this is what I've come up with:

On Becky's Blog she talks about focusing on one word and I think this is a great idea. Choosing a word and focusing on it and incorporating it into your life. I like that. So I've chosen a word. And it's a word that I believe will be a great asset and challenge in my life. It's Faith. I'm starting to go back to church and I think Faith plays a major part in that. Faith plays a major part in my marriage, my parenting, my family. So, I'm going to focus on Faith for the entire year of 2008.

I'm also going to start writing down weekly goals. And keeping track of them on my blog. These goals can vary every week therefore I'm not feeling obligated on focusing on one certain thing all year long. These goals can range from house cleaning, cooking, marriage, church, parenting... all kinds of topics.

One resolution I'd like to keep is starting to do scripture study every night before bed. Even if it's preparing for the week's lesson at church just spending quality time w/my scriptures, prayer and our Heavenly Father every day.

I love to hear other people's ideas and goals, so please comment and let me know what your resolutions are or comment with a link back to your blog talking about your resolutions.

Amanda, how fun to follow your blog link and read about your word for 2008. FAITH is great to work on and I'm sure you'll be able to keep your goals and you work on them weekly.
