As I've thought about "resolutions" and the New Year, I've decided what I decide every year. I think resolutions are kind of annoying and rarely sincere. Having said that, I always think its important to check in with yourself and see how you think yourself is doing. So I've done that over the past holiday breaks that I've had and stumbled across this piece of wisdom from Martha. She kind of summed up most of what I've been thinking about for 2012. Have all my business in my own hands.
Some of you might think that because I answer to myself for my finances, my schedule, my health, etc, that I already have all my business in my own hands. I would agree. And I would also add that its really nice sometimes haha Its also very much a double edged sword. I don't have anyone telling me not to overindulge or reminding me not to overspend or encouraging me to be better. That's the flipside.
I've decided to tell myself "no" this year; to try and manage my life in a more disciplined manner, maybe that's the right word. I've tried to think of how to phrase it: self mastery, self control, all my business in my own hands. I don't know- you fill in the blank there, but that's my "resolution." I should probably get started :)
