Transition words & phrases

Instead of making New Year's resolutions, you should make a New Year's bingo card.

Adverbs of manner

If you're like me, New Year's resolutions don't work very well, and they don't motivate me later in the year if I mess up early.

Adverbs of degree

But when you make a New Year's bingo card, you start with an empty 5x5 grid, and then in each square you just put one thing that you would like to do in the next year.

This could be really small, like eat a freshly dipped corn dog, or more ambitious, like I want to attend the biannual Micronation Conference in Montreal in June.

If you don't get to do one of them, it's not the end of the world, but when you get to cross one off, it feels really good.

Also, towards the end of the year when most resolutions are long forgotten, looking at your bingo card actually motivates you to do the ones you have left, to maybe get that full bingo for the year.

On my link tree, I'll put a PDF that you can print and fill out, and then if you stitch this video, you can show us the 25 things that you want to do in 2025.

 Make that 24 things, because we don't count the free space.
