    • Five Ways To Keep Your Resolutions

      “How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. What we do with this hour and with that one, is what we are doing.” ― Annie Dillard, The Writing Life It's the new year, and of course, you've made resolutions. Do you want to exercise more? Cook healthy meals? Write a book? Have you resolved that this is the year you'd accomplish this? Nearly all of us have already broken our resolves. Why? Because we do what we want to do.
