Earlier this year, we ran a #SheSpeaksNewYear giveaway on Instagram. We asked our community to post a picture of their New Year's resolution with our hashtag. Nearly 200 members shared their hopes and passions for 2016, clearly taking to heart that posting these publicly could very well reinforce motivation. One lucky entrant won a FitBit. Please congratulate SheSpeaks community member gracepignatare! We can't wait to hear how it helps her fitness routine in the year ahead!

We wanted to share just a few of your fabulous entries, but please know that we thought they were ALL amazing.

The majority of entries revolved around staying in shape. So many of us want to lose weight and get in shape by exercising and eating less, drinking more water and spending more time outdoors. Many of you want to be in more photos next year with members of your family rather than just take them. Many want to live longer, and staying in shape is how they plan to make that goal happen. Take a look at a few examples:

Another goal of many members is to spend more time with family. We saw a lot of photos with children, grandchildren and spouses. We loved these photos. Some were downright adorable, as you can see:

Some members had very personal daily goals, including writing more, reading more books, crocheting, journaling more consistently, and getting organized. We were duly impressed by everyone's ambitions and hope that the daily motivation lasts throughout the year. Here are a few prolific goals:

Other members resolved to building their kids' character:

Several wrote down their goals in a list and shared it, another great way to reinforce sticking to resolutions:

Overall, we loved each and every entry and all the optimism and excitement over what the New Year has in store!
