Just like the masses, I fall into the craze of making New Year's Resolutions. And just like the masses, come February, I have nearly forgotten all of them...
We look at one day, January 1st, as the day to start fresh, change old habits and begin new ones. A day to become the person we have always wanted to be.
People flock to the gyms, buy every organizing tool available at Target, supplements promoting weight loss fly off the shelfs, and Pinterest gets overloaded with ideas on how to better ourselves this year.
I both love and hate it. I love that we view this day as a new beginning and a chance to do what we've always thought impossible. I hate this day because I know that 24hrs later January 2nd rolls around and we view it as just another day in the year.
What if this year we change that mentality? Make every day a new beginning, a fresh start, a day to get organized or tackle our health head first. No fears, no regrets, and no looking back.
This year we decided that we have not just one opportunity, but 365 opportunities, to start new and make a new resolution. Because what's the difference between January 1st and January 2nd? It's just one day out of the 365 days yet to come, and the many more days to come after that.
So did you forget your resolution already? No worries, today is a brand new day and a brand new opportunity to make a new one!
