Resolutions for the New Year
---First published on stephen-blog.com when I used that site---
I was planning on posting this much earlier, but sickness, forgetfulness, and simply me postponing this kept me from doing so.
In earlier years I don't think I really took this seriously. I had some serious resolutions, but I also made some silly ones. This year I only intend to resolve only what I truly resolve to do.
I resolve to love, obey, and serve my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ more and more.
This is by far the most important goal!
I resolve to excel in my homeschooling.
This is also very important and will surly affect the rest of my life.
I resolve to schedule my time well.
Have you ever noticed time flies very fast? I have! I'm already 16 and will soon be 17. That is sometimes hard for me to believe. When I have a good schedule I notice I get much more done than when I don't have a good schedule.
I resolve to develop more self control...
...in all areas of life, but especially in sticking to my schedule. Having a schedule but not using it seems very silly. It certainly requires self control to keep from getting distracted, fight laziness, and focus on what needs to be focused on.
I resolve to post on this blog at least once a month.
This month I almost didn't get a post!
I resolve to keep seeking God's plan and calling for my life.
Seek and you will find!
Well, that's basically it. Other than the posting once a month resolution I haven't really posted very specific goals. However, if I do what I've resolved in the above resolutions, I think that my more specific goals will be easily attainable.
What are your goals for this year?
