Maybe the articles I read were slanted, but they say that he came up w/ name of company because how funny it sounded when all the Japanese tourists tried to pronounce it. Also, he pushes Landmark on his employees. Lastly, objectivism and yoga are like oil & vinegar in my book. <br /><br />I love the clothes & wish I'd never heard any of this. <br /><br />The quote is a good one!

I have not made any formal resolutions, but most definitely have goals in mind...Get in at least 3 morning workouts during the week (I'm so not a morning exerciser, BUT...) and get my life more organized. I guess I should check with my kids and hubby to see what they think I need to work on too-I never yell at my kids, I just use my mean mommy voice with them sometimes. Ha!

Other resolutions though, I love.

I guess I don't see so much of a difference between goals and resolutions. Some goals can seem negative "skip sweeteners" or "quit smoking" but I am actually ok with these if they work for the person setting them. As for outsourcing, I feel only ok if someone asks for your help. Good luck and keep it up.Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17713676282787688389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7739675715154690483.post-24947595107069409642012-01-01T07:12:45.937-08:002012-01-01T07:12:45.937-08:00I am not too hot on resolutions.

Instead, I prefer setting goals or just listing what I want to achieve this year. I have never like the 'I must be better' approach.<br /><br />Not sure how I feel about outsourcing them. All you can really do is let someone know you dislike something or have an issue, and it is then up to them to decide if they want to do something about it. Most times, when people have decisions or goals put upon them, it does not work too well.<br /><br />Some of my goals?<br />To weigh 175lbs on 12/31/12<br />Increase the amount of water I drink<br />Visit even more festivals and events in VA than I did in 2011<br />To be debt free by end of 2012<br /><br />2012 is going to be a great year :)Bzybeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16161524546589105064noreply@blogger.com
