The new year has begun. Often we start the new year with resolutions for the year, and what we are and aren't going to do in the new year. How often do we hold to all of them? Not often, as we forget what we have resolved to do. Most of us have such huge expectations for ourselves and we make unrealistic requirements that are setting us up to fail. Why do we do this?
My resolution for this year, and most years is that I don't want to make any resolutions. I usually don't make any resolutions, I usually just tell myself that this year I need to try harder, on what it depends. This year I want to try harder to write and complete at least two books. I also want to submit more and try to get some of my unpublished short stories published. These are things I want to try to do, but if I don't get them done I am not going to feel bad about it.
This year the year of me. I plan on adventuring, and learning new things. I plan on taking steps to adventure, baby steps and large steps. I plan on building my life into something that can support my future. I have big plans, to either venture one way or another. I plan on making this life my best life. I don't know what my future holds, but it probably holds two years of some sort of schooling, things I have been thinking about for a long time.
So, don't be too hard on yourself. If you made resolutions, make sure they are ones you can actually do. If you fail, it isn't failure, it is another chance. Another chance for you to get it right and try again. We all have things we accomplish and fail at, but that is what makes us human right?!
