Maybe a #nerdlution works better than a resolution…

I seem to always be making resolutions. They last about as long as it takes me to say them.  Last year was a first for me. Last December, I had enough. I knew I needed help with my exercise routine so I hired a personal trainer 2 days a week.  I have only lost 25 pounds since last January but I feel so much better and I am stronger. I will continue my exercise plan,  but this is not the focus of my #nerdlution.  I have always loved writing,  cannot tell you the last time I wrote for fun. As a child, I loved writing stories and journaling.  I need to start that again.  So I pledge to write something every day. Even if it’s just a paragraph or story idea.  It could be a short note about something that happened in my classroom or in my life outside of school.  Another personal goal I have is to carve out more time for my faith.  I am a Christian and I have fallen out of the habit of setting aside time to read God’s Word. It seems to be something I do right before I go to sleep or  as I get ready in the morning. I can tell you, it’s not enough time to read much. 🙂 This is what grounds me and keeps me sane when the rest of the world is falling around me.  So I pledge to spend at least 15 minutes reading my Bible, praying or resting in His presence- knowing He is God. 🙂 I know when I do this, everything else falls into perspective for me.

Here’s my plan to help myself.  I will put my writing notebook on my computer where I spend lots of time on twitter. 🙂 It will remind me to complete my obligations first and then I can play. 🙂 Good luck everyone!
