I also love making reading New Year's Resolutions, because as a librarian, it's super important to me to stay up on my reading. So here are the resolutions that I've made for 2015:
- Read 75 books this year. This is a little more than 6 books a month and is do-able. I know people who make goals of 150 books + a year, and with two kiddos at home, that just isn't practical for me. So let's go for 75!
- Read at least 1 nonfiction book a month. I focus so much on fiction that I miss a lot of really good nonfiction. I'm reading Slaying the Debt Dragon by my buddy Cherie Lowe right now, so I'm moving in the right direction!
- Read 1 book a month that has been published in the last 6 months. I read a lot, but I don't always read what's new. And it drives me crazy to see so many people reading the newest books while I'm still reading books published a few years ago. I need to do better at staying current.
- Listen to 10 audiobooks this year. I love audiobooks, but my short-term driving doesn't allow me to get much listening time. So this needs to be a priority.
- Read through the entire Bible. My church has challenged us to do this, so hopefully it won't be too hard to read through the whole Bible in one year. I read a lot of books...I need to make sure I'm keeping myself in THE Book!
I almost met my goal of 35 books last year (I read 31 1/2) so I am trying again! Go you on the 75 books!! I get a little too distracted by tv shows sometimes...
ReplyDeleteGood for you! 35 is a great goal, especially when you have such a busy schedule (and like TV...haha!). Good luck on this year!
