Love this, we're just finishing a post about new year's intentions... Not surprisingly since it's the time for this. We have changed "resolutions" for "intentions" as we wanted to step away from that nagging feeling of not achieving something we are likely going to still want -or intend- to do even if we fail the first time.

Particularly like what you say about choosing what's right for you, this is definitely a key factor, rather than what the world out there dictates what's good. You can never have a blanket solution for every person.

Anyway, thanks for the great post, as I say my wife and I @kensholife will be posting in the next few days a set of different areas where one can focus, giving a few example ideas and a few links from the science evidence that helps towards personal well-being and a long lasting sense of happiness. Watch this space! :)
