It's interesting that I just sent out an e-newsletter with a similar opinion about "resolutions" for the new year, saying that they are largely non-productive and cause me to feel tension just writing them! I am also a licensed private pilot and your advice about the 5-year check-in reminds me of using a plane's autopilot. When it's turned on, the course of the plane is constantly shifting because it is making subtle corrections that keep the aircraft on course in the long run. Finally, it safely reaches the exact destination intended. I like your suggestion and will implement it! Dolores–Just reading your post gives me an internal sense of peace, calm and hope.

It is so true that resolutions and goals are usually not met for a variety of reasons. Your approach of "dreaming for the future" sounds so much more appealing than the dreaded resolutions. I will concentrate on making my future brighter by resolving health and wealth issues. I also plan on doing the 5-year retrospective. Thanks for the great idea.

I will do the 5-year look-back. I do think it's more important to nurture someone else's dream than to lose another 10 pounds. I'm with you on that one. I hope my legacy is that I gave more than I got. I have been lucky. I am surrounded by a large circle of loving family and friends. They count more than making money and losing weight.

You're mother was obviously a special person and your love for her comes through in every line. My late husband Charles left me a legacy of true love. He was never shy about expressing his feelings. He would always give his sons big hugs and kisses when he saw them, even when they became middle aged. Others will judge my legacy, but I hope they remember me as a person who cared about others and gave at least as much - and hopefully - more than she got. Doey,
