We all want to make positive changes in our lives--from overcoming mommy guilt, quitting smoking, making deeper connections with friends, or just getting some more rest.

What positive changes have you made this year? Share your stories here.

I finally got out of my old apartment, and moved into a new one (no more roommates!!!). it was hard at first, because i'm so used to living with people, sharing TP, sharing expenses, etc. but i really feel that this is a first step to becoming more independent and more responsible!

 Unfortunately most of the changes I made this last year were not positive - weight gain, more stress poorly handled, less quality time for the whole family, less exercise...  I felt like I spent this year just going through the motions.

On that note I have now taken stock and set some realistic goals that I am working on for the next year.  My biggest challenge is handling stress.  My job has become very stressful and it is depressing because I used to love my job and really look forward to going everyday. 

I have been reading the YOU books by Roizen and OZ and the Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsay.

Good Luck to everyone making Positive changes.

I let go of relationship that was extrememly hard for me. I knew he wasnt going to make me happy nor was he trying. He made me feel as if I was the only one that needed to change.
