So it’s a New Year now and time for everyone to reassess their life and to make resolutions. NOT!!! If you’re like most people, you’re not going to suddenly awaken one morning and be all like Mr. Scrooge and totally change the kind of person you are. If you’ve always been a bitchy kind of person, you’ll always be a bitchy kind of person. If you’ve always been lazy, you’re not going to change now. Oh you might go for a period of a few weeks or so where you actually seem like you’ve changed, but it won’t last. You’ll resort back back to your old familiar self, and then you’ll more than likely be more of the same because you failed. If you say that starting Jan. 1, I’m gonna; lose weight, stop smoking, get fit, get out of debt, get better organized, or anything like that, 25% of you drop out after a week. Usually they will blame someone or something else as for the reason that they couldn’t fulfill their resolution. Odds are that it’s work related or spouse related. It’s Never Me for god sake!
It is time however to move on with your life and get over it! No one owes you anything and you must make the time now to figure out how you can live your own life. Forget about what happened last year, or 2 years ago, or 8 years ago that is making you miserable. All it is doing is making those around you miserable and not want to be around you. What’s done is done and there is nothing you can do to change that. Stop trying to tell others how they should live their life. The only way they will make it is to learn from their own experiences and mistakes. History cannot be changed and it is how you deal with it that makes you who you are. Embrace the new year and seek new challenges, and try new things, and make new friends. Life is too short to be stuck in the past and not moving forward. Learn from the past, but don’t bring it with you.
That being said, I hope everyone has a great New Year!
