I am really not one for new year resolutions. They just set you up for failure. Let's face it, a good portion of the population sets rather high, broad, extended and well, darn right unreachable/unattainable goals. Sure, they give it their all for a month, two, maybe three but then BAM! Gone! Why would anyone want to do that? To each there own but my motto is...goals! Short term. Long term. I love goals and am always creating them. Call it my Type A personality in affect if you will. LOL! With that being said....I've established some goals for 2011 and would like to share them with you. So for 2011, you will see more...
