12 Months of Resolutions: January's Results + February's Challenge

Something I've done for the past couple of years is to do a different resolution each month. I do this in the hopes that the resolution will stick, since it takes generally 21 days to form a new habit.

For January, I gave up shopping for an entire month!

How did I do?
I nailed it!! I've done this challenge many times before,  but this time I did it during those amazing post-holiday sales. Sales and enticement, especially from bloggers, were everywhere! I swear everyday I saw some great post full of sales calling my name. But I resisted. It helped having little treats like Birchbox and MyGlam to help ease it.

Would I do it again?
Yes! I'd like to extend it to twice a year, or at least two consecutive months.

Bonus: I also had a mini-resolution to listen to new-to-me music every day. I did it. Thirty-one new bands gave me plenty to take in.You all gave excellent selections! Thank you. :)

For February, I'm giving up Diet Coke!
So far, so good! Wish me luck!
