New Years Resolution
Many people seem to wait until the New Year to make resolutions for themselves. Personally, I try to always have realistic resolutions for myself all year round. I consider myself a pretty healthy person and I enjoy working out and eating well. For my New Years resolution I would like to continue my healthy habits and continue to have a positive attitude. Of course I could make various goals for myself for the new year, but right now I don’t think that would be very realistic. I have been quite busy maintaining every thing else in my life right now. I am glad that 2006 is now behind me and with 2007 I hope I can make it a year of positive outcomes.
When setting goals for yourself you must be realistic about them. I would recommend that individuals should not make huge goals because a goal should be something that you can work towards and eventually achieve. If your goal isn’t realistic for you then you won’t achieve it. I believe that when making goals it is better to make more than one. Make some goals easy to achieve and some harder. Make one that you know you can achieve and make another goal that you know you will have to work hard towards, but you believe you can achieve. This way, you are allowing yourself some variety and will enable to work for your goals. Goals need to have a timeline in order to be achieved.
Most individuals aren’t able to achieve their goals solely because they don’t have the positive encouragement to do so. Most people need motivation, not only from themselves, but from that of others as well. I feel that I have been able to help my friends and family through positive encouragement, which allows them to achieve their goals.

Cambri,
Your response makes sense; however, the prompt was really not about new year's resolutions but about whether we should fix ourselves or finetune ourselves- whether to minimize our weaknesses or maximize our strengths. I would have liked to hear more about that aspect.
