I’m having a relaxing New Year’s Eve, reading and listening to jazz. I have some yoga penciled in, too. What are your plans?

What I’m reading today:

• Rosie Molinary on choosing a word for the year and setting an intention around it. I haven’t decided do this myself, but I’m thinking about it. What would your word be?
• The Greater Good Science Center’s article on resolutions that will make you happier.
  

Need an escape from the Mondays?

• My Daily Muse column for New Year’s Eve, “What to Read on the Subway,” is a virtual vacation to Paris! Check out some of my favorite books and podcasts, like Amy Thomas’ Paris, My Sweet.
