If you're motivated to set New Year's Resolutions for 2012, but are having trouble coming up with a complete list of goals to set, try using categories to organize your thinking. By "categories" I just mean areas in your life where you'd like to improve. Once you define a category, usually 1-3 goals will bubble up to the surface of your mind without much prompting, and those will be the ones to work on for 2012. Here are the categories that I use:
- Spiritual (even if you're not religious, you can think about what your ultimate purpose in life is and how you'd like to fulfill that)
- Family (anything related to your relationships with family and close friends)
- Financial (budget, spending habits, investments, retirement savings)
- Community Service
- Lifestyle (travel, hobbies, material desires)
- Career (short and long term work goals)
- Education (what you'd like to learn)
- Fitness (your health, weight, eating habits)
- Homemaking (cleaning, organizing house)
- Homeschooling (even if you don't homeschool your children, there are probably things you'd like to teach them outside of their regular school work)
