I remember talking about this last year with you all. I feel a lot of guilt and shame because I can't keep up with resolutions. Body and mind don't really get on board, and they shouldn't have to. There are times when I believe, "Baby steps. Let's set one or two achievable resolutions for the year" but still I just can't see it through.

So, this year, I am going in with "Whatever happens, happens. I'll celebrate small wins every week." There's only one goal I set for myself this year which I'm already very nervous about. It's a reading goal. Last year, I set a goal of 50 (I didn't think I would get to 10, but I got to 87). So this year, I'm thinking 100 books. And if I don't get there, that's ok. But it's a fun goal to work towards.

Otherwise... fitness, self-growth, eating, travelling, fun moments etc... these are things I just cannot plan for. Because my body and mind don't care for them.
