Since there are 52 weeks in the year, I decided to list 52 intentions. It doesn't work out that I will accomplish one thing a week since some of these are daily tasks and some of them are one-time events, but 52 was a good number to work with.
Some things on the list are simple, some are difficult. Some are things I do already, some are things I've never tried.
I will check up on my progress with this list halfway through the year (on my birthday) and at the end of the year.
