Do you sometimes feel that the more effort you put in, the farther you are from your desired destination?
Does this sound like you?
I am tired. I will start tomorrow.
I will be happy when I lose 20 pounds.
Life will be easier when no longer struggle to pay our bills.
I hate my job, I will be less stressed when I land my new job.
Once I finish this project, I can be present.
I need this degree or certification before I can.
Happy quitter’s day!
The second Friday in January is known as National Quitter Day in regards to New Year Resolutions.
Why did society choose January 1st to mark the new year, and why is it considered ideal for personal change? Winter “New Year”: Whose idea was that?
I am a firm believer you learn lessons when you are ready to accept the outcome. He prepares the way but uiltimately you have to take the lead. Also, you never know who will open your eyes. This story is an encounter I had while buying groceries at our local Publix.
On my way to the store one morning, I observed a cow pushing its head through a barbed-wire fence to get a taste of the lush grass on the other side.
I laughed out loud and wondered to myself if that cow realizes he has access to acres upon acres of green grass right behind him. A simple turn grants him limitless access. Yet his focus is on what he doesn’t have. He risks self-harm, choosing this method instead of taking advantage of what is already his. All to taste what is outside his reach.
The first word that comes to mind describing 2024 is disappointment.
I experienced some major upsets in all areas of my life, including family, friends, work, and even finances.
At one point, I felt like my entire world was falling apart.
