For many people, 2009 was a great year and for many it was a bad year. Have you sat down and thought about how it could have been better or what you could do to make 2010 better?  Some questions to ask yourself might be: Did I work as hard in school as I should have? Did I get the grades I wanted to? Did I join some sort of organization/club? Did I make as many friends as I wanted to or put myself out there to meet new people? Did I save any money? Am I happy with what I did this year? These are just some of the many questions you can ask yourself.

Whether or not you like to set goals for yourself, it is helpful to sometimes take a look back on the past and see how you would like to see yourself progress into the future. The problem with many individuals is that they set unrealistic goals that are not practical to achieve. A great way to set goals is to use the “SMART” method. The website explains ways to achieve your goals by using the acronym Smart: Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, Timely.

Take the time to think of what you would like to do differently in 2010. Make the list as short or as long as you would like. You will find that once completing your goals, you will feel accomplished and at ease knowing exactly what you want to accomplish!
