2014; this is the year for...

Happy New Year everyone! Am I the only one that feels weird being back at work on a Thursday?

Today, I had planned to do a recap of my New Years Eve, but when I started catching up on blogs, I noticed a lot of people wrote about their resolutions for this year. This inspired me to do my own list.

Like some of you, I'm not too keen on making a resolution list. Instead, here are my hopes for this year (I'm totally sort-of stealing this idea from Amanda).

circa. last new years (2012).
In 2014, I hope...

To bite my tongue more often. Cruel words never solve arguments. Even if they're only being said in self defence.

To think positively more often. Negativity doesn't do any good. 

That Andrew gets his dream job.

To take a course/go back to school.

To seriously figure out what I want in my future regarding my career and/or take on more responsibilities at my current job.

To take more control over my savings accounts and possibly look into stock options.

To go to the gym in the morning/at lunch time (instead of in the evening). 

To spend more time with my family. Particularly my brother. At ten, he's growing up so fast. I want to cherish every moment with him. 

To travel even more. Hawaii, Dominican and Australia are just a few that are still on my must-see travel list (along with a ton of others).

To make a 40 before 40 list.

To do a year in review post. I'll get to it. I swear!

Most importantly, I hope to stop doubting myself. I never fail to land on my feet and my hard work has always paid off. I can't forget this.

I still have a New Years Eve recap to get to, as well as more blogs to catch up on. But first, I should probably get some work done at the office!

What hopes do you have for 2014?
