  1. I bookmarked this on my iPhone, Work Computer, & Home computer! It’s really funny how I know all these things but sometimes just forget them, in moments of anger/concern/being upset. I personally, being from Arizona, LOVE #6! I plan on eating lots of burritos in 2013! :o)

  2. That’s a good list! As for believing in something bigger than yourself, I am SO thankful that I am not the biggest thing in my universe. That would be terribly discouraging!
    Lots of good advice! =)

  3. Love, love, love these tips! Some easier said than done, but we just have to take it day by day…and keep this kind of stuff top of mind throughout the day. Happy New Year! xo, Angela

  4. I love the suggestions. I especially love the idea to encourage yourself. I think I am my hardest critic, and this probably can be said for most people. We should lighten up on ourselves, we are all made in God’s image!

  5. Clearly I need to make burritos a daily necessity, right? Seriously though, I love this. Thanks for the reminders!

  6. These are all great tips. I especially love the eat burritos one. And of course the living under your income will help in all areas too. That reduces stress in general which helps with everything else! And I call my mom all the time. I should work more on calling friends.

  7. This is such a great list. I definitely need to try to be more spontaneous and try to leave previous days behind me each morning. Wishing you all the best in 2013!

  8. I love this list. The only thing I would add is taking the time to take care of myself. By that I mean, taking the time to wash my face before bed – little things. I always wake up feeling better when I do those little things. Happy New Year!

  9. This is quite the list but all great ones. Working towards your goals is another big one for me. A lot of times we tend to feel stagnant and lose sight of what the goals we have set for ourselves really are. Working towards them a\gives ourselves a sense of accomplishment which in turn makes us feel good about ourselves. Another big one that I NEED to work on is being more organized. This, to me, is bigger than it sounds. When we get our lives/homes organized we feel a sense of control and again in turn make us fell good about ourselves and our lives. Okay that was enough og the therapist in me talking…lol!
    Much happiness and success to you in 2013!
    All the best!

  10. This is a magnificent list. It is also things that people tend to forget to do so thank you for putting it out there. Life can get the best of us if we let. Hope you and yours have a wonderful New Year’s Day and a spectacular 2013.

  11. Ok, before I commented I shared this on every social media I have! This is such a great list. Seriously, mention this and the Christmas in prison post, I think I have officially decided to be you when I grow up! Thank you- this was perfect for me today!

  12. Bacon. Bacon should be added.

    Heh, in all seriousness, and the wonders of bacon aside, this is really is fantastic. I do think that for us bloggers, living and not always documenting should be added to this list, life is so much about living in the moment and enjoying everyone you’re around.
    I did get a little teary over #10. You really don’t know when someone is going to be taken away and one of my biggest regrets is not being around more before my best friend died of breast cancer. (I was able to learn from that at least and saw my cousin a it before she passed away, but those are horrible regrets to have, its something you can never take back. Telling the people around you that you love them every day is so important.)
    I hope you got to have a lovely New Years Molly and I’m sure 2013 will be awesome for you and all of the people who’s lives you touch.
