If you could magically stick to your New Years resolution, what would you choose to see through and why?

Lose weight and get in better shape. I was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma a few years back and due to the maintenance chemo and steroids I put on a lot of weight.

During 2022, the focus will be on both mental and physical health. Having balance in both realms is important for both myself and my family. Being able bodied to care for them and myself is of the utmost importance and at the forefront of everything else to follow. Having them as a support system is critical to my own well-being, but by being an example of balance both in mind and body, it will set the tone for them to follow. If our health is a priority, then stress and anxiety can be better managed, as well as putting other health issues at bay. Lowering stress is paramount to living our best lives. As the saying goes, "You can't give from an empty cup". By being our best selves, we can truly be available for ourselves, our family and our community.

Making this a “yes” year and expanding my comfort zone, have more fun and live a healthier (mentally and physically) year through that “yes.” Why? Because there have been far too many “no-s” and I do not want to have regrets as I get older.

To be shredded like a julienne salad

I would just want to be able to trust more and doubt less

To be more organized, live more purposefully, and concentrate more on others. Why? It would make the most impact, reducing stress in my life and also fulfilling the goal of our existence, be here for others.

To stay sober for my mental health, but mostly for my family.

If I could stick to my New Years Resolution and see it thru, it would be for me to have open communication with family and friends.

Since leaving service in 2016, I’ve found that my communication with those close to me has fallen off. Sometime I could go a 9 months to about a year without communicating with family and friends outside of my home. It’s a sad thing now that I think about it.

I would set goals. How to improve my health, being 68 going onto 70+. I started last year in toning my body. Planking and working with weights. I also have looked at my Life Insurance. Adding a carrier of of eldercare. Of course staying financial strong, reviewing our investments. Having a great financial advisor is very beneficial.

for me, PATIENCE is the only way
