    Mine is to eat healthier and try not to be such a worry wart.
    Last year it was to diet and I gained 20 pounds.

    I resolve to exercise regularly.
    I resolve to do better at money management.
    To stop acquiring "stuff", let go of things that are cluttering up my place and give away what I am not using but others might be able to.
    To figure out what to do with the remaining years of my career.
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    I usually don't make resolutions but I'll try to:
    work on my debt (it's hard with my cats always getting sick)
    try to eat healthier
    try not to get so stressed out at work
    try to get plenty of sleep

    Whoever told you that is a pessimist and has no basis for it. Go for what you want and you'll be better off! You'll be fine!
    PS...my husband's College Degree is in Biology, he has no Master's of PhD, and he makes money!

    That's a great goal! Good luck with it!!

    I, myself, don't make resolutions on New Year's. I just try and make little promises to myself throughout the year. Sometimes they work, sometimes not, but it's all good!

    Do what you love and the money will follow. IMO, there's nothing worse than abandoning a dream/goal just for the sake of money. You can have both.

    Thanks for the encouragement guys! I slept over a friends house last night and she said the same thing, she wanted to do Marine Bio and she "researched" salaries online and found they don't make anything. I just can't bring myself to believe that, especially since she found this info online. I LOVED Marine Bio since I was, maybe, 4 or 5, and my dad tried to major in it because he loved it. But he didn't and now he regrets it immensely. I'm going to follow my dream, I really am. I don't care what other people say.

    I just don't make New Years resolutions, just take it day by day! I know I couldn't keep one anyway.
