Today is no different than yesterday.
Its not going to work.
New years resolutions have some serious issues built into them.
For one, youre probably setting some unrealistic, unnecessary goals for yourself.
Shoot for the stars, they sayNo!
Baby steps, people!
You want to craft systems for yourself that will take you the distance.
Also, ensure these goals will actually make you happier.
After all, why learn to rock climb if youre not going to make it one of yourthings?
And remember, a year is a long time when it comes to focusing on a project.
Hell, I bet some of you cant even remember your resolution from last year.
Youre also giving yourself a time constraint to accomplish your goal, even if you dont mean to.
Come next New Years Eve, youre probably going to go Oh crap, I didnt make it.
You lost 20 pounds, but gained back 21 over the holidays.
You wanted to travel more, but you only got out of town once and for business.
Dont disappoint yourself like that.
Youre going to suck, so give yourself some space to do that and improve gradually.
Worst of all, youre putting off making positive changes in your life for the sake of the resolution.
You tell yourself, I want to do this… but Ill start it come the new year.
Stop wasting your own time!
It is literally the most precious commodity you will ever own.
If you want to change, make like a brand slogan and just do it.
Years, monthstime is all a construct you silly animal.
Enough with the next year will be better crap and just makenowbetter.
There is only now.
Theres no restarts, clean slates, or turning points.
Theres just this one long period of time where youre here, then youre not.
Are you still going to wait to pursue your goals?
Oh, and Happy New Year.
