Spring Resolutions 2010

I've never been one for New Year's Resolutions, but I have never said that New Season's Resolutions were a bad idea, did I? Now, these aren't resolutions like lose weight or try to dress better. These resolutions are not external, they're internal. Well here are my New Season's Resolutions of Spring 2010:
1. I will write more. I will go back to the one thing that I love doing for me. I feel like I have been losing bits of my sanity lately and just last night when I sat up forgoing sleep just to get out another sentence or paragraph I felt like I accomplished something.
2. I will read more. I have always loved reading and I completely agree with the theory that to be a good writer one must read a lot. I am going to return to the days when I could curl up on the couch and finish a 35o page book in one sitting just because I can.
3. I will try to become less easily frustrated. I am guilty of becoming so frustrated that I just give up and never look back at what made me frustrated. I have at least ten stories that I started this year alone that have been abandoned due to frustration that can vouch for that.
4. I will try to focus more on the positive and less on the negative. I have a tendency to be a very negative person when I feel like it, or just don't feel like putting the effort into being positive. Negative energy just breeds more negative energy however and I will no longer have room for negativity in my life.
5. I will not let other's influence me. I will not longer allow someone's bad day to influence how I feel. If someone feels the need to bring me down I will simply walk away from the situation or person so that they cannot change how I feel.
