New Year Resolutions – make ‘em, fake ‘em or bake ‘em?!
Lately I asked a dear friend if she’d made any resolutions for the New Year. She responded “The month is too depressing as it is to beat myself up on top of that.”
I had to think about this a moment. I’d never looked at the resolutions made in January as a way of punishing ourselves.
For me, the new year brings a clean slate, freshness, new beginnings and hope!
Of course we could look at each month/week/day/minute as a new beginning, but it seems that in January I like to take inventory of the previous year, and do more of what brings me satisfaction and less of what didn’t feel so good.
So, what are my ‘resolutions’?
PERSONAL
Live in the moment, spend more time with family & friends. Laugh as much as possible. Reward my body with delicious healthy food, and good exercise.
WORK
Be pickier about my clients and really enjoy the ones I have. Great clients make life a dream – one bad client can ruin all the fun!
SPIRITUAL
Pray lots, make more room in my life for God, love & acceptance, patience, grace, forgiveness and charity. Count my blessings everyday… the glass is always completely full!
I LOVE January!
How do you feel about making resolutions in the New Year? Make ‘em? Fake ‘em? or Bake ‘em?
