Stumbled upon this idea today, I’d like to try to reframe some new year’s resolutions as “themes” which are less specific “goals”, with more specific “resolutions” on top of them.

For example, someone might have a “theme” of “losing weight this year” and with a specific goal to “lose 10 pounds by April”.

The nice thing about a “theme” is that you might “fail” a specific resolution, while still “honoring” the overall “theme” you’re aiming for. You might not lose 10 pounds by April, but still lose 10 pounds by June, and so still “honor” the “theme” of “losing weight this year”.

Any new thoughts on new year’s resolutions, goals, or themes?

Happy New Year! 🎊️🎉️🎇️🎆️
