Adhering to resolutions is indeed a huge task, so it’s kind of surprising when people started sharing their success stories on social media. Twitter user Kayla posted a thread about some of her accomplishments during the year. It’s inspiring to see how she stuck to some of her 2017 resolutions, including trying “to be more patient and kind to others”.

I used to think New Years resolutions were such bullshit but I’m actually really glad I made some for 2017 because I accomplished almost every single one of them

I wanted to visit 2 completely new states: I went to 5
I set a goal to find my passion and make a career out of it: in 2018 I’ll be applying for a program I never dreamed I’d be doing

I told myself to sit down and read 20 books: I made it through 36
I wanted to move out of the county I’ve spent my life in and I DID. And guess what? I moved home because my entire heart and life are here

I really wanted to lose weight so I told myself to lose 20 pounds by the end of the year: I’m now 26 pounds lighter and feeling better than ever

I told myself to go on a solo hike: I DID THAT along with about 40 other things completely alone in a state 2000 miles from home

Aside from the major resolutions, I set smaller ones that weren’t limited to a years time.
I wanted to be more patient and kind to others around me. I wanted to be more organized, listen more, and cuss less.

Although I’m still a disorganized mess who cusses like a sailor when things go wrong(🤷🏽‍♀️) this past year sure did teach me all about patience, which is leading me in the direction of being a more understanding and kind woman

My 2017 resolutions:

Considering it a win.
