This morning as I was wandering through lovethispic web site I came across this wonderful image of things to give up. I thought it was perfect for the beginning of the new year. I was rather impressed by the things they mentioned and decided it would be a good list for me to copy and put on my goals board. Usually I put things to work towards doing and including in my life. In this case it think it is a good idea to put a few things that I should try to stay away from. What do you think? Do you think it is a good idea to put a few goals that include things you need to or want to stop doing or including in your life?

I think we should set targets to do more of things that we enjoy as we're more likely to achieve those than targets about stopping or giving up.

It makes sense to me. I can easily accomplish something if I am enjoying it.

I have my goals already written in the Bible. =) I want to become the words in there and I read it daily so I don't need to write it down.

What a great list that is! And I love her signature underneath. I recently put a little sign on my fridge. It reads, "Make life happen. No one can take away my self-confidence, but me. Address the elephant. React to facts, not feelings."

That is a great saying. I was immediately drawn to this list. It is how I wish to be.

The only thing against such a list would be that it has you thinking about negative things. But it's a great list.

I tend to look at the positive and ignore the negative.

@HazySue write a few goals that include things you need to do or want to stop doing in your life

I like the picture and the ideas it contains. That is some great advice. Yes, I think we should all have some goals of what we want to pursue and achieve. One goal I have is do some activity/ exercise every day.

I think it helps us to choose a direction for our lives to have a goal.

@HazySue Yes, it is useful and important to have goals. One who has no goals has no idea where he is going.

When it comes to eating for my health then yes, I have started a new morning routine but it wasn't easy to give up coffee, now I'm used to it.

I have gone from caffeinated to half caffeinated. The next step is to go decaf.

I do not set goals. There are things that I try to change in my life, I do my best, but I do not consider that it's "a failure" if I cannot do what I have in mind.

I set small goals and work towards them. I have a easier time if I try to set myself a time limit.

That's a really good list and sometimes we have to remember to stay away from some things that are hindering us. I especially need to work on #5 and #6
