Today, I decided would be a do-over day. I’m starting anew and recommitting myself to myself to do the things that are best for me. Now sometimes these things are not fun, but necessary – like I got up this morning at 5am so that I can go to the gym(I am NOT a morning person) but somehow, it felt right and good to be doing this for myself. And I’m taking it slow, I won’t do this everyday, I’m thinking 2-3 a week with other activities in between. I don’t think that resolutions should be made just at New Year’s. Everyday, if we think about it, should be days that we are resolved to do and be the best people that we can be. And if we miss the mark one day, we have the next to be resolved again to do better. No longer will the beginning of the year be the only time I evaluate and set my accomplishments. Each day of my week now begins with New Monday’s Resolution, New Tuesday’s Resolution, New Wednesday’s Resolution……
