several years ago, i found that new years resolutions were nothing but a source of trouble for me. i'd never keep to them, and it'd just make me feel like crap. like there was something about me that i needed to change.
so one year, i resolved to never again make a new years resolution.
so far, i've kept that one. and it's done wonders.
Well...here it now is 2011. A full four years later! We all are still here on Percys Forum...for better or worse, in sickness and in health!
Unlike you, I feel a need to make a list for resolution, even though Jon insists that making a list is a recipe for failure.
My 2011 List:1) Get back on my healthy diet that I know and like so well. When I feel better, I am encouraged to stay on a healthy eating plan, but the catch 22 is that in order to feel better I need to eat better for at least two weeks to a month beforehand.
2) Stop Gambling!! 4 years ago, I hedged and said that I would allow myself to gamble "a little". It was a mistake, and I now realize that my gambling is the root of many problems in my life which have a common theme. Which brings me to my next resolution......
3) Recognize the difference between fantasy and reality in everyday thinking. Take responsibility for what I do and say. Dont fall back on ideologies and dogma. Learn to face each day cheerfully and dutifully. I think 3 is enough for now.....
