Repost: Backward Resolutions

Image
T his is a post from 2015 that a friend brought to my attention.  Thought you might enjoy. IS it too late for New Years resolutions? Many of us make our lists  Lose ten pounds.  Exercise every day.  Stay within my personal budget and grow my savings account.  Visit my family more consistently.   I 'will do this', I 'will do that'...But do we ever see them through? I don't or I haven't!  We promise ourselves that this is THE year to see them through. Well, I am rebelling.  I'm much better in controlling what I will NOT do...because I like to be in control...(don't judge me, you do too).  So this year I refuse to make such a list. Instead I am making a Backward Resolution list, i.e. these are the goals of what I am NOT going to do. And....I have listed these in reverse order (thank you David Letterman): 10.   I am not going to feel guilty for sleeping late on Saturday mornings. 9.   I am not going to walk...
