This is the time of year that people start making New Years resolutions. Whether its a diet, a plan to stop using foul language, changing your attitude or "cleaning up" your circle of friends, a lot of people use the end of one year as a good reason to make some life changes. I usually make some half-hearted attempt at changing something. I'll give up something or implement some random plan and it lasts all of 3 days! LOL Im not going to do that to myself in 2012. I'm going to Let Go and Let God! Any plan He has for me is much better than any plan I could make for myself!
Do what you know you CAN do. That would be my advice to anyone planning to come up with a resolution. If you didn't go through with the resolution after the first week of last year, what makes 2012 any different? Seriously. Be honest with yourself. Don't make some crazy plans you know you won't fulfill. Don't go to bed on December 31st and think you're going to wake up on January 1st a completely different person. Be realistic!
There are no set rules or timelines to resolutions. If you want to change, then slowly implement change. Don't shock your system into it, take your time. Diet plans? Start by slowly removing certain things from your meal or walking after a meal instead of sitting on the couch. Before you know it, you'll feel healthier and start seeing some changes in your body.
Want to change your attitude? Start by smiling at one random person or saying "Hello" to someone you usually wouldn't. Then over time, you wont even notice that you're smiling more, but others will!
Anything you decide to do, I hope you are successful! Even if you decide you don't need to make a change! Want to keep being the same old you from 2011? Good for you! LOL
I pray that everyone has a wonderful New Year and I hope that 2012 is an amazing year full of blessings for you and yours!
Love,
Coco
