Do you make resolutions- at new year’s or any other time of the year? Or do you make goals ?

i know i set goals for myself for the up coming year. an then at the end of the year i reflect on how or if i met my goals .
i would like to hear from D/s or M/s if they set goals for themself or it maybe there Dom or Master sets goals for the year for them.

i'd like to get out of my tendency towards self-sabotage because of my obsession with negative "what ifs"
it's an issue he's talked to me about on several occaisions
i just like that i can talk to him about whatever, even if it sucks, and i still feel better afterwards

Nope,I do not do the resolution thing 



swan70 -> RE: the new year (12/31/2008 5:32:58 AM)

I set goals for myself -- and the new year just feels like a good time for reflection.  my Master set one goal for me--to improve the way i see myself.  i want to be healthier--which means lose weight, exercise, eat better.



oceanwynds -> RE: the new year (12/31/2008 5:39:19 AM)

Today through tomorrow I will be doing my normal ritual of reviewing this year passing goals, revising, dropping or congratulating myself for progress. At this time I will set new goals in every area of my life. I have a big binder notebook that i use each year to do this. These aren't resolutions though, but goals that are broken down into steps.

CatdeMedici -> RE: the new year (12/31/2008 5:47:56 AM)

I set goals, resolutions  and reinforcements( goals to Me are things not yet done, resolutions are things I need to do better and reinforcements are things I did well that need to keep going)
 
Goals:
 
Finish My ministerial courses
Learn to Tap Dance
Get My flute fixed and find some refresher lessons
Ride more
Get the deck garden rebuilt
Put down a new kitchen floor
Accomplish three outstanding activities at work
Get a second car
Lose 20 lbs.
See sub through upcoming life challenges
 
Resolutions:
 
Cut off work time at 5PM so I'm ready for family time at 6
Invest more time in UM's self growth
No more one sided relationships with friends or submissives
 
Reinforcements:
Time with the UM
Growth and support of the sub
Smile
Laugh
Deal with it and move on
Keep the Drama queens out.
 
 
 
 
 
 



nafakcha -> RE: the new year (12/31/2008 6:08:08 AM)

My Master does make New Year's Resolutions. I'm not sure if He would call them goals or some other term.

I make goals for the upcoming year. I don't break them down by goals, resolutions and reinforcements but the three concepts are there. It is definitely more logical to organize your goals by subgroups.



sambamanslilgirl -> RE: the new year (12/31/2008 6:23:40 AM)

i don't make resolutions because their easy to break within a day or two.

i have lifetime goals.



littlewonder -> RE: the new year (12/31/2008 6:45:51 AM)

I don't do resolutions. I do reassessments of my life...where should my life be right now, what are the trouble spots, what do I need to change, etc...




clearlightblack -> RE: the new year (12/31/2008 7:15:40 AM)

I don't do the resolutions......I'm with sambamanslilgirl, they are so easy to break within a few days.

For some reason today when I got up and the news was talking about resolutions.  I just made a list of phone calls I had to make today :)

Sorta like a list of things to finish up before the new year comes.  :) so in all honestly, I am just playing catch up.

So I am making it a goal for next year to have nothing to do on New Years Eve 2009 so I can sit and do nothing :-)

this slave doesn't make goals/resolutions.  Master has made them for us.

T1981 -> RE: the new year (12/31/2008 8:01:48 AM)

As a rule, I generally don't make New Year's resolutions, outside of one, I've never been able to stick to any of them.

But this is the year my husband and I have decided to move forward with our D/s, so if there is a goal, it is to try new things and become more comfertable in our roles.

Kind of lame and generic, I know, but there it is.



LadyTeazer -> RE: the new year (12/31/2008 8:25:49 AM)

I don't make New Year's Resolutions.  Never have.  I feel that if there is something you want to change, then do it 'now'.  Why wait for a special day to make changes that will improve yourself or your situation?

LaTigresse -> RE: the new year (12/31/2008 11:22:47 AM)

I've never done, end of year, must do's.

Instead I am constantly reflecting on myself, my life, where I need to change things, how to do it without setting myself up for failure, etc etc etc

Resolutions are nothing other than intentions or wishful thinking, achievements are living.



shivermetimbers -> RE: the new year (1/1/2009 11:47:23 PM)

The only resolution I make is to resolve not to give up anything during Lent. That's an easy one to keep.

I just reassess goals I have made, and look at the progress I made or didn't make.  I find that much more rewarding, and realistic.
