It is time to start thinking about the new year and what we want out of it. I want to know what you think about new year's resolutions. Are they cliche, or do you think they are important? Do you make the same resolution every year? Do you accomplish your goal?

I want to get a job in the coming year and want to bring home a companion for my mother as soon as possible. This is my resolution for this year. I have more resolutions, but I want to fulfill them one after another.

Maybe you can adopt a whippet or some other kind of dog for your mother, if that is a good companion for her. I don't know what your situation is, but if a dog would make a good buddy for your mum, then a whippet is awesome. They do need exercize cuz they are like little grey hounds, but after thirty or forty minutes of chasing something around the yard all they really want is to cuddle up and sleep. They are the kind of dog that isn't too little, not yappy, and you can litteraly wrap them up like a baby and carry them every where. They love it. And they don't eat a lot and are easy to groom.

I want a human companion for my mother. As she loves to share her thoughts and her experiences which she have from her versatile environment and that could bring envy to any person. I sometimes got spellbounded by listening to her experiences. But nowadays I became so much engrossed to my job schedule that I couldn't spend much time with her & take care for her. I too want a companion for myself and so I am thinking if that person could also become her companion then it will be much better for me and my mother & that person too.

we have a very big engineering project that was approved last november and work will start again early next year (or should i say next week). its a very big one and my goal is fill my bank account with 1M by the end of the year. i can positively say that coz we have already started working last week of november and we only need to stop due to the holiday season. i will be saving more and spend less. i'll be a little thrifty this time. that will be my new years resolution. happy new year tawny_24

I made new year's resolutions every year,every resolution that i made could be sticked to by me on less than a few days.I should say if you wanna make resolution,don't give yourself too much pressure.step by step.

mine was to 'struggle as mmuch as possible without giving up' .hope i can achieve this goal. all these days i would give up easily, by which i lost reputation and trust of others. i had learned a lesson this year.

How time passes by sooo...quickly.My New Year`s resolutions?TO get a better job,keep improving my skills in teaching,translating and writing. I like writing,sharing experience,stories especilly in mylot LOL. I used to write from a provider but the payment is too small,but at least i have experience in writing and i still save my work samples coz i think it is useful for me to learn from what i have done so i know what i can modify or improve. Next year i want to be able to make decision for my future, then i want to find a soulmate and get married..i hope i can accomplish that..Happy New Year for everyone!!

Hi tawny, my new year's resolution has not changed and it is to loose weight...I don't think new year's resolution is a cliche...I believe it can be achieved if you really set your mind into it...for me, I find it hard to loose weight because I don't have discipline on myself. Yes I do accomplish my goal but at the end of the year I seem to know i'm slipping out from my goals. New year resolution is important because it helpy you formulate goals for the coming new year and gives you a sense of something to look forward to in the upcoming year.

Yes, few more days to go and we will be celebrating a brand new year. It is really exciting because I am looking forward to have some good changes in the year 2010. Well I have a lot of new year's resolution to mention so maybe I would just share few of the important things I want to happen next year. I am already happy with my life now but some how I still want to obtain more accomplishments in the future. I will really try my best to achieve this goal. I will also work harder to earn more money. I want to do some thing important for me this coming 2010 and hoping it will really come true. But the problem is I still need to have quite big amount of money in order for me to do this thing. So, I really need to be patient and I will keep on believing everything will turn out to be fine.
