Love you perspective on resolutions - which I don't make either. Not because I don't keep them, although I probably wouldn't.  No, the reason I don't make new years resolutions is because I make resolutions on a daily basis. If I end the day knowing I didn't use my time wisely, I decide then how to act differently so I don't repeat the same behavior tomorrow.  I totally get the goal setting and working toward them. I've done so much introspection, I've about turned myself inside out.  Still, I tend to be way too flexible on that aspect.

Thank you for sharing these insights and references. While I will never make resolutions, I will keep my habit of morning, noon, and evening self examination, but I think I feel a little rigidity in my accountability coming on.
