  A comment on Conversation: What are your New Year's resolutions?

  Jan 1 2013: My central goal is to try to be a securely attached person, but I also think these 5 are really really good:
  
  1. Be more mindful
  2. Exercise for a healthy mind
  3. Sleep the right amount for you (me!)
  4. Differentiate from your past (most important for me)
  5. Challenge your inner critic
