New year, same me? I’ve never stuck to a New Year’s resolution past the end of January. I rarely stick with any big changes for more than a month. I think that I’ve gathered sufficient data to conclude that sweeping changes don’t work for me at all. So this isn’t a new start. This is me, just trying to make better choices day by day.
The philosophy of small and gradual lifestyle changes isn’t exciting. My instinct is to fix everything all at once, but that way fixes nothing. So, time to make some little changes. Acknowledge that it won’t be exciting, and do it anyways.
The past year and a half has been seriously difficult. Taking stock of my life has been a sobering experience. It could be worse. Much worse. But it hasn’t been easy. I struggled, and I failed. I’ve had medical problems that I’m only starting to get a hand on. I’ve been heartbroken. My trust has been broken. But there is so much to be grateful for.
Assess. Plan. Reassess. Replan.
I’ll be okay.
