My New Year's Resolution is...

in life •  5 years ago  (edited)

It's that time of year again where we say goodbye to the old and look forward to the New Year. Resolutions will be made and broken and that's exactly why I'm writing this post.

Under pressure

I've seen family and friends put themselves under enormous pressure promising to do this or that beginning on January 1st. The fervent desire to change, pushes them to set unrealistic goals they simply cannot meet in the allotted time. Those heady early days, are followed by the crash of realization that "it just ain't gettin' done." A girl I knew, swore she would lose 50 lbs in 12 months. Having lost over 30 lbs, instead of celebrating that progress, she ended the year completely disappointed. Please don't do that to yourself, you deserve much better than that. So as I sit here, I decided not to tie myself down again. 2020 will involve something that can actually be accomplished.

A happy new me

So what is my New Year's Resolution? Simply put: to be a better person than I am right now. No heavy vows or set in stone pronouncements. This simple statement is doable and will allow the positive vibes that begin with this annual rite, to flow all year long. Can I be better than I am now? You bet! cause I’m already good! :) Say "yes" to yourself more often. Look forward with a positive mindset and let's bring the FUN back into the new year. What are your personal goals for 2020?

Thank You!

@evernoticethat, We should enjoy the Flow and have to do better than before that's the Mantra instead of trying to pick the weight of whole Mountain itself. Stay blessed.

Thanks for that. After this cycle, the hope is to leave ourselves and the planet a little better than we found it. Wishing the same to you and your family.

Welcome and these words are really appreciable. Thank you so much.

Hey @evernoticethat,

@upvoteshares is currently having a promo for members of the upvotebuilders project that closed down recently wich might help to recover some of the lost upvotes.

This project has been running steady and over 20 months without having to make all that much promotion as it offers Steemians like you who bring consistent quality content solid returns far above the 10x self-upvote values and also includes tribe upvotes for SPORTS / PAL / LEO.

There are still some shares left in Level 20 (Value always goes up each Level) so feel free to check it out and let me know if you are interested or have questions. Also feel free to ask any of the ~100 already existing members their experience with the program.

Keep up the great stuff !
