"I want to" -> "I will"

I've been thinking lately about things I'd like to improve about myself... personal goals if you will. I don't know what triggered it, but I've had an onset of things that I've been telling myself I would like to change, ASAP; however... it's very easy to push thoughts away and disregard that they even exist... especially ones that require Will Power!
For this reason, I've decided to record my personal goals so they're no longer just a thought in my head, but something I can see and read and seriously pursue. I'm hoping this will make them more of a reality than a fleeting thought passing by.

I want to:
- Cut back on my coffee consumption. I want my morning coffee to be replaced with an herbal tea every second day.
- Stop picking things on my face & be okay with my skin not being completely smooth.
- Get back into my wheatgrass regime!
- Floss my teeth every night before bed.
- Stop eating after 9pm!
- Cut back on my indulgence in a certain plant.
- Reduce my intake of meat & increase my consumption of vegetarian friendly meals.
- Take my hedgehog out to play at least a few times/ week.
- Stop biting my cuticles (no one wants an interpreter with gnarly hands!)
- Ensure schoolwork is always my #1 priority.
- Continue my Yoga practice & strive for meditation rather than a workout.

All a test of will power; here's hoping that seeing these in black and white will help give me a kick start to success and personal growth.
