I read somewhere that resolutions are passé, and that made me sad--it's not because I think that we should all re-commit to visiting the gym every January, and give up by each February.
It's just that I believe there is some intrinsic value to the notion of continual self-improvement. You probably put some stock in this idea too (even if you don't realize it), after all, you have a Pinterest account, don't you?
Whether they're hip or square, I can't help but become contemplative around the new year. I love a fresh beginning. These are the things I've been meditating on for the past few days. Maybe they'll provide you with some inspiration too.
They're not quantifiable "SMART" goals. I think that I'm okay with that. Becoming a happier, healthier person isn't always about the measurable. You know, that whole bit about life being a journey, not just a destination? I think I'll try to embrace that.
Someone keep me accountable. I can be way too uptight. Don't forgot the gym for the other eleven months of the year. It's a good time.
PS: I've been changing some things up around here on the blog--I even edited my "about" page. I think this meets criteria on two of my three goals, so I'm off to a great start.
