Or if you prefer: no resolutions, only guidelines.
I will improve my mind. I will read something that requires effort, thought and concentration. I will not be a mental loafer.I will make a conscious effort to be agreeable. I will be kind and courteous to those who cross my path, and I’ll not speak ill of others. I will improve my appearance, speak softly, and not interrupt when someone else is talking. Just for today, I will refrain from improving anybody but myself.I will do something positive to improve my health. If I’m a smoker, I’ll quit.
