the time to make New Year's resolutions has come and gone... towards the end of January i like to revisit my list of things i said i'd do this year, to see how i'm doing... there's so much i want to accomplish this year...so many spiritual, physical, intellectual, professional goals that i desire to reach... every year i like to pick a theme...like for instance, last year was "self-discipline" which was shot to you-know-where when wedding prep madness hit in the summer... this year i think my theme is going to be "change"... when i'm frustrated because i have not reached a goal, i like to assess the reason why i have not been successful...like, i have not lost that lingering 10 lbs. beacuse i've been unwilling to CHANGE my lifestyle... CHANGE is important & exciting...it's hard but it keeps things fresh & interesting ... although i know it will be a lot of work, dedication & sacrifice, i'm so excited for this endeavor at the same time....i'm tired of failing ...this year i must keep my resolve instead of let myself slip easily back into old habits... New Years are full of HOPE for me... it's a clean slate to start over new, to recreate yourself into a person you respect more and who is closer to God...so here goes...this week i'll be sharing some of my lists of things i'm going to try to change this year
