New Year, New Me?
No.
That's the short answer.
The long answer goes something like this:
No, because I don't believe in making resolutions. I don't make resolutions because it's almost expected that you'll fail to keep them, which doesn't really help, but also because I don't believe there's a special time to set these kinds of goals.
The best time is now, not tomorrow, and as much as I hate the cliché, I hate people who always talk about doing something tomorrow (perhaps a bit of projection there).
Even if you can't start a new goal now, plan when you're going to start and how. Then the key part, and the hardest: actually do it. I struggle with this bit as much as the next person.
In 2009, there won't be a new me. There will be the same old me, trying to overcome the same old bad habits, and making progress one step at a time. Wish me luck ![]()
