What's Your New Year's Resolution?
December 25th 2007 21:31
Truth is, in most cases we are the masters of our destiny.
The other telling truth is that in most cases - we fail dismally when it comes to New Year's Resolutions.
Sure - come that first day of January - you'll see people everywhere pounding the pavement (or if you're on holidays) hitting the sand - brandishing their pristine new season joggers, a boot camp mentality, and a steeley determination.
As admirable as that is - you can be pretty sure that once the reality of the work-a-day world kicks in again - we start to make mental notes to self like - "Will start again Monday".
Before we know it - it's Easter - then tax time, work and family commitments engulf and we start spruiking adages such as "Gosh - this year has just flown."
As a record of fact - I'd like to state here and now that other than working a little more diligently on my health and fitness - family, friends and a whole less stress will grab top billing on my 'to do list' in 2008 - rather than earning the overinflated respect of corporate world and its equally inflated bottom line.
So what about you?
Perhaps you want to lose a little weight , pay off debt, save money, drink less alcohol, quit smoking, reduce stress, take a holiday, help others?
Have you vowed to make this year the year to learn something new?
Perhaps you are considering a career change, want to learn a new language?
Whatever it is - would love to hear it.

I take a different approach. I look forward to new year's celebrations. I look at what I can celebrate.... friends, family, good health etc.... Resolutions have not worked for me. :0)

Best to look after the important things in life already huh?
Last thing we all need is the resolve that disolves. . .
