New year resolutions to try 2021

New year resolutions to try 2021

Another year has gone by. Time seems to be flying. This New Years, makes some resolutions that will make 2021 a memorable year, and perhaps the best!

1 Be Optimistic

This doesn’t mean that you have to have a smile pasted on your face 24/7. It means that you should look on the bright side of things. Everybody likes a happy person. Happiness is a magnet that attracts people. No one likes to hang out with a pessimistic person that’s always a downer. Ever hear the phrase “glass half full?” That’s an optimistic person. For example, let’s say your parents make new arrangements to have you and your little brother/sister stay in the same room together. Don’t think of it as a punishment, think of it as a way to get to know your sibling better, maybe you’ll find out something about them or perhaps you can help them with their problems. It’s a great way to bring you and them closer together. Or what about the chore situation? You’re always being hounded to take out the trash, clean up your room, etc. But if you took these little jobs seriously and maturely, perhaps you could persuade your parents to let you get allowance for them. If you act mature and responsible, great things can happen.

2 Make more friends

Having a wide variety of friends means you’re never left in the dark, you’ve always got someone to talk to. Having friends is healthy. The more you have, the happier you are. Seriously, it’s true. I’ve learned to say hi to people all the time, and the funny thing is, being nice can sometimes draw people to try and know you better. Trust me, it’s no joke. Also, having friends means that you’ll never be stuck quiet and lonely during class. You’ll always have someone to talk to.

3 Get a job

Well, not exactly. But to me, getting a job can be a good thing. It helps you build a sense of responsibility and maturity which can be a great skill to learn in the future. Also, earning a little bit of money isn’t a bad idea. Perhaps you can use that extra money to treat yourself every now and then to a shirt you saw at the Buckle!

4 Find a hobby

Find an interest that you have always had. Always loved watching people figure skate on television and always wished you could do it? Well, pull a couple dollars out of your piggy bank and spend a day at the local ice skating rink. See if you can do it. Perhaps you just found yourself a new hobby–ice skating! Or maybe you always admired those model train sets from afar. Save up some money and periodically start your own collection of buildings and train parts. You’d be surprised how fast it can all add up, and before you know it, you’ll be so involved in your hobby, you won’t even care about going to work and making money–just more train parts!

Haunted Beardslee Castle Ghosts and Other Paranormal Activity

Built on haunted Mohawk Valley ground, Beardslee Castle , now a restaurant, has ghosts, poltergeist activity and other inexplicable events. When Augustus and Lavina Beardslee were on a European vacation in the early 1860s, she fell in love with the castles, especially an Irish one. He hired an architect to create a copy of that castle, then brought back the blueprints and Irish stone masons to build it in the Mohawk Valley on land that had already seen its share of tragedy. Also read How to Detect Paranormal Activity One-hundred years earlier, during the French and Indian War, the land housed a French homestead or fort, according to varying references, filled with ammunition.

Aries horoscope love compatibility

HOROSCOPE LOVE COMPATIBILITY BETWEEN ARIES AND ARIES ARIES AND ARIES:   it may be an intense love affair, but neither of the 2 Aries is satisfied with not having the lead. The Aries female objectively tends to dominate. Yet, Aries male too. Therefore there will be a big opposition to be number one, at least during the first days of the relationship. In the bedroom too, both Aries will engage a fierce struggle to dominate the other. The relationship between two Aries may be good though if each has outside interests and/or a career separate from the other. As a matter of a fact, when their energies are not always in the same room and when each partner can satisfy the natural Aries’ will to dominate, the relationship between two Aries is intensely passionate and less destructive. HOROSCOPE LOVE COMPATIBILITY BETWEEN ARIES AND TAURUS ARIES AND TAURUS:   That’s a difficult match. Taurus likes to stay at home, is possessive and jealous, characteristics highly conflicting with Aries’...

Purebred Dogs - What, me resemble my dog?

Purebred Dogs - What, me resemble my dog?  More than meets the eye…. We’ve all seen those articles that infer that a dog owner begins to take on the outward appearance of their dog. I for one, feel I have little physically in common with my dog (a KBT). I’m sure you would agree this premise does not have enough documentation! Certainly I did not choose Maggie because she would resemble me! People own dogs for different reasons and in an earlier article I dealt with choosing your pet based on exercise time, training time, home alone time, grooming time, and physical attributes. Now I’d like to look at the less objective reasons for dog ownership. Are dog owners of the same breed similar? Do you fit the profile of other owners for your breed? Check How dogs and their Owner’s Personalities are Similar where significant research is posted on the similarities among owners of same breeds as compared to other dog breed owners. This site is worth a visit if you own, or if you are...
