Forget about making New Year resolutions … at least for a week or two.

This is the time of year when blogs are stuffed with advice for making and keeping New Year resolutions. While the beginning of a new year entices us with its blank slate of opportunities, I suggest that we avoid the temptation to craft our resolutions until we have had some time for our resolutions to take shape.

For the rest of the month, start each day with an intention—intention to do something that day. Choose something that is important to you. Make it something that will make completing it make you feel good. Put it at the top of your “to do” list today and every day for the rest of the month.

Keep track of these daily intentions for they are your markers for creating your goals for the New Year.
