Simple Goals rules & guidelines

I really don't do a resolution list every year. I tend to define a goal and figure out how to get there. I do have some guidelines & rules.

For example:  a gave up Krispy Kreme donuts, I can have them every 4-6 mo.

Rules:  don't eat donuts just b/c I can.

Think about it, walk away, and think some more.

Guidelines: buy as many as you want, eat your donuts and give the rest away.

Result: Majority of donuts don't really taste that great. Eating a special donut becomes a real treat and a sugar shock.

I don't feel bad. My cholesterol has gone down.
