Contest: Six-Word Resolutions
Monday, December 27th, 2010
Six-Word Resolutions are back. Tell us your plans, hopes, dreams, motivations, and mistakes you hope not to repeat in 2011 in just six words. We’ll give three of our favorite six-word scribes a T-shirt from our partner, Spreadshirt, so you can wear your resolutions proudly throughout the year (or at least until you break them). Share yours on the Six-Word Memoir project by January 6 (National Smith Day—and SMITH Magazine’s fifth-year anniversary, by the way)
Plus—last chance! In six words, what happened in 2010?
SMITH senior editor, Rachel Fershleiser, and I will be on WNYC’s The Leonard Lopate Show on December 29 at 12pm, talking about your six words to sum up 2010. There’s still a little time to submit yours at WNYC.org and be invited to talk six with us live on the show. (Note: you don’t need to be in New York as we’ll be chatting with folks by phone.)

Be less judgmental, be more compassionate.
Judge Less, Listen More, Love Unconditionally
Trust myself. Courage. Make it happen
Trust myself. Couage. Make it happen!
Write more. Eat less. Pray often.
Give myself a break. Others too.
Do the very best you can.
Dream, live, inspire and be inspired
Less waste, less waist, more taste.
Eat less. Pray more. Love life.
Get my shit together.
Increase bottom line, decrease my bottom!
No resolutions this year. Less breakage!
Only you can decide what’s “perfect.”
New year unlike any coming before.
Hating myself less this coming year.
Dance in my living room daily.
I resolve to never resolve anything.
Mind is willing, flesh is weak.
My global warmer is bigger than yours.
Life works best when we do.
Respect myself, respect others. Together.
