We made it to the end of February! \o/ If you have completed any of your short-term goals or subgoals, and/or you're still chugging away at your ongoing goals, then pat yourself on the back. You worked hard for that. About 95% of New Year's resolutions crash and burn before the end of January. If you're still going, you have beaten the odds!
This year I'm trying something new, continuing to track goals at the end of each month. So far it seems to be helping, so that's encouraging. I'm looking at my goal list more often and trying to keep ticking off more of them.

Your Resolutions
Some people prefer to set goals in February instead of January, which is fine. It's a short month so it's easier to get through. It's after the holiday crush too. If you set goals in February, you can share a link to your new list.
Other folks are working on their New Year's resolutions from January. Find ways to keep going. What progress have you made?
Did you set any outdoor goals? It's easy to overlook those in December-January when the weather is frigid. Now that spring is around the corner, check to see if you have goals for gardening, yardwork, nature trips, etc. If not, you might want to set some goals now. Spring cleaning is another good topic to check. Here are some ideas on setting monthly goals.
Do you count New Year in March? Multiple cultures do this, often on or around the Spring Equinox. If so, you might like to set your New Year's resolutions on that occasion.
