Process

The general strategy is the same as last year. I am going to make four resolutions–one for Body, Mind, Spirit, and Emotions. And then a secret fifth selected at random. I generally make my list with Jack and Cody over a cheese board–we have rescheduled to this Saturday this year for reasons.

Changes

This year I saw the “select a word” style increase signifcantly. Also, the something to increase, something to decrease, and something to stay the same seemed new.

I received about 150 responses to my request for resolutions–the “I don’t make resolutions” response were down a ton this year–but still some spiritual resistence to intentional change and general frustration that resolutions do not work was evident.

Jack, Cody, and I meet a lot later then in previous years.
