About
2009 will be the first “Year of the New Me”.
It’s time to make some changes for the better. But New Year’s Day is such an artificial deadline. We make promises to ourselves at the end of the old year with the unspoilt beauty of the new year in front of us, while drinking champagne and partying, and we break them within a few days without a whole lot of thought.
So I’m going to do something different. I’m going to make today the day for change - 18 November 2008. I’m going to start the change by thinking about it. I’ll keep myself accountable by recording my successes and failures right here in this blog. Starting today I’m going to keep track of my life, decide what I need to do, and then make the changes to get back on top of it.
We’re not talking just physical changes, although yes, I could stand to get into shape and I could exercise more, drink less, eat better…mmm…ok some of those will have to be included on the list. However my list will also include improving my life in other ways, expanding my horizons, learning to let go, reaching for some dreams, becoming happier.
Should be an interesting journey…
