Annual resolutions for 2025

[Mambi]

Well, 'tis that time where we reflect to see for self-improvements and the like. Unless you're perfect in which case, TEACH US YOUR WAYS OH GREAT GURU!!!

For the rest of us, anyone wanna share their resolutions for 2025? Me, I'm working to reduce catnip and wine this year, and to cut out a lot of BS in my life. Gonna focus on my happiness and just try to be the best damn kitty I can be one day at a time. Here's hoping!!

So...what's yours? <listens comfortably with a grin>

 

[Wuff-Wuff]

I believe in you Mambi!

Mine would be to seek a job in the environmental field. Fingers crossed there are actually jobs out there ^w^;

 

[JackyTheDoggo]

I really wanna try to just really get my life in shape. I wanna at least be living in my own apartment and be paying for my own bills and stuff. My money has been getting better. I’ve been doing work for a few weeks now. I’ve been talking with one of my friends and I think we’re gonna be roommates in the next couple of years.

 

[OtheratheOtter]

Work on stress management, what with my parent's being unsupportive and all.

 

[EndlessAnnoyance]

I vow to remain entirely unchanged! Annoyance is eternal! Endless, some may say!

Let's see...
I think it was nearly 2 decades ago I made the resolution for no more resolutions and, wouldn't you know it, I managed to keep that up for a good long while! It was nice because I didn't have any "failings" of myself to further bum me out - I could simply exist. That was nice while it lasted.

Fast forward to the present and I'm now at a point in myself where I feel that resolutions can help improve my self-worth to myself. It's been a not-so-mild ride these past five or so years and I have outgrown my resolutionless lifestyle. I have:
-Changed states.
-Lost friends and made new ones.
-Transformed my work mindset into believing in myself and my abilities to make a living not dependent upon some large conglomerate.
-Gained new responsibilities that demand a lengthy commitment to produce well-rounded individuals.
-Moved into my own domicile.
And I now find myself in a safe place - safety I haven't experienced in...possibly ever.
Now is the time to help further my growth by placing some: "loose" resolutions.

Gotta take it easy, after all. Right?

So, what are my resolutions for this 2025?
-Continue to work on my healing and personal growth.
-Continue to make strides toward a healthy diet.
-Get into the habit of exercising for my health and not just aesthetic or society's diluted ideals.
-Learn to be present and live in the moment as opposed to being paralyzed by ghosts of the past and the uncertainties of the future.

So, cheers to us all, and may we do our best in this new year! <3

The secret is to be a rat. Ehee :3

But seriously though, I never make any of those resolution things. I find them to be too limiting, I mean, what if the situation changes and your previous priorities are suddenly crap in the light of the new situation :O

I guess I could resolve to remain adaptable and to not limit myself via arbitrary resolutions? That's pretty clever, huh.
Take that, new year's tradition, hahaa! Try and boss me around, will you! >:3

So close...you are the perfect RAT, but I seek to be the perfect CAT. They sound close, honest mistake. Must have had some yogurt in your ear. :)

OOoo, too true. I suppose all you can do is resolve to do start doing something right away knowing it probably will change anyway so you don't have to commit making it a non-commitment and a total waste of time from the start and...hold on, something went off the rails here...<scratches his head confused>

HA! Like anyone can tell a rat what to do!! You already drank the DO WHATEVER A RAT WANTS potion so 2025 has no power over your ratty will!! Mwahaha!!!
