Resolutions... let's get them off the paper...

Most people make a list of resolutions right before New Years.  We resolve to do all kinds of things that we think will make our lives better.  The thing I notice from myself and most of the people that I know, the majority of the resolutions do not leave the paper we write them on (or the thought bubble in our mind that they are imprinted in).

In 2010 I think we should all resolve to get up and do something.  Don't resolve to lose weight.  Make plans to go to the gym, take up jogging, or taking dancing classes.  Don't resolve to finish the unfinished projects.  Make time to get things that matter to you done. 

It boils down to the whole "talk is cheap" philosophy.  We make great plans.  We have lofty goals.  Lets actually do lofty things.  Anything is possible if you put your mind to it, put in the work, and trust that GOD has your back. 

Just because you make a resolution, doesn't mean that the resolution fairy is going to come down and magically make it happen.  Be realistic with yourself.  Not only understand your limits, but understand that you are the one creating the limits. 


How about we surprise ourselves in the 2010.
