Every year I make resolutions and every year there's something that gets thrown under the rug not too long after January. I considered not making resolutions this year and instead making goals periodically as I do throughout the year anyway but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to get a fresh start on some things.
52 Weeks of Scripture Study
I've read 1 Nephi 1 more times than I can count. I know I need something different to keep me motivated and and, to put it frankly, to keep me from getting BORED. I decided to study my scriptures this year in a weekly theme format. I have written down 52 different topics that I have questions about, need a stronger testimony of, or just enjoy reading about. I will study one of these topics each week, allowing me to dig deeper into each subject and something that will keep me from getting lost in the same stories I've been reading for years.
1000 Miles to Nowhere
I did a lot of running last year and I loved it. I put more races under my belt last year than any other year. But races are expensive $$$ and add up awfully quickly when you focus on longer distances like I do. So this year (I stole this idea from my brother Jeff) I'm committing myself to running 1000 miles. If I decide to throw a few races in there, I will only reach my goal faster. I'll be adding a countdown to the blog so you can watch along with me as the miles diminish. Now all I need is a new pair of shoes.
These are just a couple of the goals I'm working for this year among the other annual repeats. I've decided to log my progress, thoughts, feelings, and happenings during my journey. Feel free to follow along! Here is my new running blog: 1000 Miles to Nowhere.
What goals have you made this year?

What a great idea, a 1000 miles to nowhere! And I love the scripture study idea too! Good luck! I made one major goal this year and that is to be optimistic :D
