2014 is here and as with every year that came before and with every year that will come after people are working are to fulfill their resolutions by starting strong; and to those people, I wish you the very best and remind you that it takes 21 repetitions before something becomes habit.
I have decided that resolutions are pointless because if I am being honest they are meaningless words on a page backed by the best intentions, and we all know what is said about the best intentions. In this year, I am going to strive to continually improve myself in the ways that I need.
So, here is my list that I do not have timelines on and know that there will be setbacks, switchbacks, and curve balls that I will have to allot for: show my husband that I love him, take more risks, tackle this infertility nightmare, prepare for traveling this year, spend quality time with family and friends, depend less on technology, give back more, enjoy myself, and take more time for myself.
No matter how you are beginning your new year remember that you new year isn't about societal pressures and norms, it is about you. Do what makes sense for you! If you know realistically losing 60 pounds for spring break is unreasonable, don't make that your goal. If you know that you can't workout the recommended 30 minutes daily because you struggle with an "internal" disease, don't make that your goal. If you know that being single is working for you, don't make finding a "mate" priority.
I wish you all a 2014 that makes sense for you and brings you the things you need, and whether you are on a resolution track or an improvement track, I wish you the very best.
