A New Year

Well, we are 15 days into the new year and I am still wondering if I will achieve my new year's resolutions.
Yes, I make them and always will. I like the idea of outlining goals to achieve in the new year and trying to make a better me.
But I never seem to achieve any of them ... and then I feel like a failure.
This year, I am trying to be more realistic about my resolutions. First, I am just calling them goals. Second, I tried to make them realistic. Instead of saying, "I am going to lose 30 pounds and be thin," I have decided to make it my goal not to eat out as much, try to eat better and exercise more. That seems a little more attainable. :)
Third, I am not going to let myself feel like a failure because I don't achieve all of my goals. I have to remind myself that I am trying and that is all I can do.
Who knows, maybe I will achieve every item on my list. 
Happy New Year's!
