Sadly, resolutions rarely work. They're easy to make but hard to keep. Here are two perspectives about making resolutions that may help you.

Setting an intention for the year and surrounding yourself with things that reflect your values can be important (and a good alternative to resolutions).

The #art you choose to live with can shape the intent of a space.

Here’s to a year built with purpose, not pressure.

Today I'm sharing, “Panama General.' Panama, a country that faced aggression from the U.S., and after a long struggle, successfully won its independence.

Intentions.

I promised a longer year-end review, so here we go! Sowing seeds for what's to come. #lizcultivates #goals #intentions #newyear2026

So after adding quote-posts to Mastodon, it seems the "quote-post apocalypse" did not eventuate.

I like to think it's because the user-base of Mastodon contains a much higher density of "well intentioned" users and far fewer of influencers, bots, attention-seekers and monetization etc. And the reason there are few of those, is because the user has full choice to never see them.

Intentions matter and so does **user-quality**.
