Small “Wins” Lead to a Successful Day & Future | Quaker Oatmeal

Heather — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 11:30:00 +0000

I’ve learned that making New Years Resolutions just don’t work for me. I begin the year with every good intention… but things happen, I get sidetracked or I plain old lose my willpower. This year I have started making small lifestyle changes instead of one huge resolution. My first change is to start thinking of [...]
