2026 New Year's Resolutions and Other Goals

[ysabetwordsmith]

I haven't made my list yet, because that's part of tomorrow's task list. However, the post for 2026 New Year's Resolutions and Other Goals is up on goals_on_dw for folks who do theirs on December 31. Go check it out! Pass the word to anyone you think might be interested, especially when you see people posting about their goals. There's also a Masterlist of Alternatives for those who hate resolutions and/or feel overextended already.

Thanks for sharing the master list of alternatives. I really like the 'everything is awful and I'm not okay' list. It takes my own pot plant protocol (water, food, sunlight) for times when I'm feeling like ending everything and really expands on it. I'm going to print out some copies.

You're welcome!

I'm happy I could help!

Yeah, that "everything is awful" list is my most recommended, most handed out resource for crisis management. Use it enough and it sticks in your memory as things to check when someone else is floundering. Even though it can't solve big problems, it can solve the fallout problems like getting dehydrated because you forgot to drink anything, and fixing those little things makes the rest a lot more manageable.

It's a great thing to stick on bulletin boards or in an emergency folder at work, organizations, etc.
