EDITORIAL NEWS “While many people use the New Year as an incentive to finally stop drinking, most are not equipped to make such a drastic lifestyle change all at once. Many heavy drinkers fail to quit cold turkey but do much better when they taper gradually, or even learn to moderate their drinking. If you have decided that you want to stop drinking, there is a world of help and support available. Alcoholics Anonymous offers meetings throughout the greater Dallas area. There are also a number of treatment-based programs, as well as support groups for families of alcoholics.” “Was money a big source of stress in your life last year? Join the millions of Americans who have resolved to spend this year getting a handle on their finances. It's a promise that will repay itself many times over in the year ahead. Avoid payday loans. If you get trapped in an emergency, go to www.thecashfactor.com for temporary relief.” “Have you vowed to make this year the year to learn something new? Perhaps you are considering a career change, want to learn a new language, or just how to fix your computer? Whether you take a course or read a book, you'll find education to be one of the easiest, most motivating New Year's resolutions to keep. Most local colleges and universities offer distance and adult education programs.”

Help Others
A popular,
non-selfish New Year's resolution, volunteerism can take many forms.
Whether you choose to spend time helping out at your local library,
voters’ leagues, mentoring… there are many nonprofit volunteer
organizations that could really use your help. Or if your time is really
in short supply, maybe you can at least find it in you to donate the
furniture, clothing and other household items that you no longer need,
rather than leaving them out by the curb to fill up our landfills.”

Get Organized
“On just about
every New Year resolution top ten list, organization can be a very
reasonable goal. Whether you want your home organized enough that you
can invite someone over on a whim, or your office organized enough that
you can find the stapler when you need it, these tips and resources
should get you started on the way to a more organized life. You can
contact professional organizers who can help you reduce the clutter in
your life and find peace in your home.”
