I dislike resolutions immensely. First of all, I rarely succeed at any of the high expectations I set for myself and when I do fail, I feel like, well….a failure. In my teens, I would set resolutions like “lose 10 pounds by March 1st.” Looking back, I didn’t even need to lose 10 pounds! As I got older and slightly wiser, I’d change my resolutions to something like “lose 50 pounds this year….” – are you seeing a pattern? Total failure, and I would give up by the springtime. In the last several years, I’d silently commit to “eating healthier,” “being healthier,” “being more active.” An improvement, but slightly noncommittal. I am not setting any resolutions this year, although at the beginning of every year I’m ready to eat “healthy” again.

Thought to Keep in Mind on the Journey
Failure is merely a perception; with each effort, we get the ability to start over again.Awards
