  • I'll


     


    New years resolutions in tow, time to welcome a new era, a new chance to fulfill every dream, a new take on every circumstance, new people, new experience, new goals, new ambitions, new mistakes, new lessons, new interests, new melodies, new dances, new.......well I'm sure you already knew!


    Let's welcome the new good stuff, and leave behind the rubbish, garbage, dirt, crap (he!he!), and let's keep the good memories, good times, good lessons, good health, good friends, good love, good feeling, and the goodness that resides in our hearts.


    This year for me comes with more positive vibes, no putting up with CRAP from anyone, and I am more confident, more determined and I am about to kick some major ass in all aspects of my life.  My New Year resolution for the year is to be more PRO-ACTIVE, and no im not talking about the acne products.  I mean just doing instead of talking.  Notice I disappeared, well it was for my own good.  I took time for me, to be me, and to get things done, Xanga is great but its not the beginning and end of it all, my friends are great most times but they are not the ones responsible for me, I AM!!!  So I sat down with me, we had a really good talk, she kicked me hard I kicked back and we agreed to just get on with it, no more feeling sorry BLAH BLAH.  Just get on with it, sit on your butt and tell yourself how hard your life is, and you found a depression pill all on your own.  Get up and fight and you will find nothing and no one will stop you, its a fact of life. 


    So just breakaway from it all.  We spend so much time dealing with other people.  If we can take the time to talk to others and set up agreements with other people, then surely we can do the same with our own selves.  I always live in hope when people ask me about my New Years resolutions, but hope is not all, there has to be motivation, there has to be desire to get things done.  We all start with the best of intentions but more than 70% fall by the way side.  I have learned that to achieve a goal you have to set a direction as in where you want to be.  For example if you want to stop smoking, then make that your destination, then plan your journey and make allowances for bad roads and bumps and even road works ahead.  In other words be prepared.  So this year no, half ass resolutions for me, there will be no... I will make a resolution just because everyone is, and no...well I tried but uhhhmm! 


    This year I want to plot a course, a whole road, that will lead me from where I am today all the way through to where I want to be!!  As in not just a resolution for the whole year, but small resolutions everyday and every week.   If you set a goal, set it in small doses with the overall outcome being something big.  Take small steps. Think of it this way.  When you were small.  You did not get up from the cot and start running.  You had to learn to support yourself first, then you learn to roll, then came crawling, after which came bum shuffling for some (LOL)...and then...only then came walking and finally running.  Small steps but meaningful steps.


    One more thing to remember is that, you don't need the New Year to set your resolution, you can do it in December and carry through for as long as you need to. A resolution is a permanent change, not part time till its lost its novelty.  Breakaway from the norm, breakaway from the cult and breakaway from the hoards of people who fail their resolutions every year.  Just Breakaway from breaking the promises that you make with yourself. So with that final note.  I'm off to make my resolutions solid, see you all next entry.


    Nite Guys!  I did miss you all, more than I should admit

    and u picked an awesome theme song for it as well.

  • Yes, taking small steps; going slow is a good way to start. You're less likely to give up when things get diffcult, which is unlikely if you were to jump into something too abruptly. Let's breakaway and work on those small resolutions each day and week of our lives ^_^.

  • Wow... I think I need to take a break and get to know the REAL ME. Not the one people see me as... hmm... I needed to read this right now, and I really like this song.
