It's that time again - NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS.

Since I started blogging back in 2004, I have always posted about New Year’s resolutions around this time. Just b/c it’s 6 years later doesn’t mean there has to be any difference.

It seems that every year, I have a plethora of friends who say the same things…

I am going to start back to school…
I am going to make that move to another state…
I am going to lose all this weight that I’ve gained over _____ period of time…

And the list keeps going. All of the things that many people usually resolve are of the same vein. I stopped doing NY’s resolutions many years ago. I’ve always felt that with everyday of your life, you should be embarking on the journey of reaching your goals. Some people use the remaining days of the year to “slack” off, saying that the upcoming year will give them a fresh start.

I believe that if you want to make something happen, you put fire under your own feet and make it happen. There are a lot of things that I “hope” to accomplish this year as an EXTENSION of my goals for 2010. Nothing new, nothing that will take me until 2011 to figure out if I need. It’s all just a part of my long term plans that will stand no matter what “others” are doing for the new year.

It’s a lot that I need to work on, many things I need to “break” myself from. I ordered a few books the other day that were recommended by a few people…all of them dealing with grabbing your goals by the horns and really doing it, really (continuing) to believe in yourself. It doesn’t take a new year for me to realize how important my life’s goals are.

I am my own inspiration who just happens to seek to inspire.

Happy new year, everybody(=
