The day of my birthday counts for me. My birthday has past for 2011 and my goals are already well on the way to being met... I may even add new ones at my half year birthday mark. I have done that before. M I do not make resolutions or set goals at the turn of the year but rather at the beginning of MY personal new year. The day of my birthday counts for me.

The term goal has been mentioned and that is what I like as well. Why wait until the new year to make a "resolution" when you can do it at any time. There is a new day each morning, a new week every seven days and a new month 12 times a year. What makes having a "resolution" at the end or beginning of the year better than doing one each day/week/month? I don’t believe in New Years resolutions.

That would quickly lead to self-pity and despair. This is one of the reasons, I believe, that the Word tells us that "we overcome by our testimony." Well, I'm too thrilled that you posted this list! I think what you listed is almost EXACTLY my list. It's both comforting and scary to know that I am so "normal." But at least, I have confirmation that I am not alone - in my shortcomings or my quest to improve.

What a paradox and something we have to fight for on a regular basis. I'm learning to appreciate the time spent with God and view it as communion with Him rather than the time spent rambling on about my "needs" and things I hope to see happen.

Pretty simple, but I have found that praying the the absolute best investment of my time - even when I have a million things that I "have to" do - spending time with God is usually the best thing I could do at that moment - this doesn't make it any easier, but at least I am finally learning what the best use of my time is... @Jason,
