Keeping Resolutions

So we’re one week into 2013.  Still keeping up with your resolutions?

I made my own list of goals, but when it comes to your typical resolutions, I’ve found that sometimes it helps to give yourself a little motivation.  Below, a cheat sheet to staying on track.  

Nest: Did you want to stay more organized this year?  Make an investment (albeit a small one) in these pretty canisters from Target to kick things off.  You’ll be far more inclined to put things away when they’re going into something as cute and cheery as these.  And while these are intended for the kitchen, why not use them on an office shelf for extra paperclips and pencils? Or in a guest bathroom for cotton balls and q-tips?  

Dressed: Did you want to get in shape this year? A good sports bra and pair of sneakers goes without saying.  But a cute and comfortable top like this sweatshirt from Aerie will certainly help in getting you out the door to the gym.  I promise, you won’t regret it once you’re there.  

The Rest: Did you want to be on time this year?  What about making a goal to be on time (to work, meetings, etc.) for 30 days straight and as a reward at the end of the month treating yourself to this fun little bow tie watch from Urban Outfitters?  Win win, I think.
