I don’t make New Year’s resolutions anymore.
Nothing against those of you who do make resolutions, but to me, making resolutions can be really discouraging. “This year will be the year that I finally stop…” All too often, it becomes a recipe for discouragement sometime around January 10. “Ugh…once again I failed…” And after enough years of this, I don’t want to do that anymore.
So, while I do look at a new year as a chance to reflect and make changes, I’m not going to make any resolutions. Instead, I will be setting goals for 2018.
