Happy New Year to you all! We have officially rolled into 2019 with a lot of excitement, hope, and ideas. I know it’s typical for most of us to create some kind of resolutions for the new year. Did you make yours? I used to be on board with a host of resolutions including working out more and grand ideas of somehow overhauling my entire life as soon as possible. Then, I failed and failed again. I lost steam, fell off the wagon, and continued to be my typical self without crossing off a single resolution I had made for the year.
I read a quote today that summarizes my approach to this year. I’d like to share it with you because I believe it can help each of us put things into perspective.
“The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” -Lao Tzu
What does this mean? For me, it means that while I do want to accomplish some goals, I don’t have to pressure myself to complete something within a specific amount of time. If a goal or task seems daunting then just taking the first step puts you on the correct path to accomplish something in your life.
What personal goals or resolutions did you set for yourself this year?
