I will not say happy new year, as it cannot explain my absence
for the last few months nor will I say compliments of the season as I don’t
know how you are feeling right now! I will however apologize for the title of
today’s post as the second part sounds like a Nike commercial!
RESOLUTION! I
have never liked the word, when I hear it what comes to mind is a radical change,
ill-conceived and ill executed and doomed to fail. Personally I prefer the word COMMITMENT which brings to mind actions
based on well thought out plans with perfection as the final destination. Now
perfection is almost impossible to achieve so with commitment you keep on
chasing it, with resolutions, especially the “new year” ones you are liable to
give up when adversity strikes.
There is a wonderful story I stumbled across recently that
illustrates what commitment can do for you.
