New beginnings.

"Sometimes, the only way to start something is to start something!"

 

 

 

January 1

 

I realized this morning that I had two choices on this New Year's Day.

Choice A, I could feel totally depressed over all the things I said I would do last year and didn't,

or there was choice B, I could feel totally excited about the fact that I have a whole brand new 365 days (366 if it's a leap year!) to try again!

One of the things I do plan to accomplish this year is to write a book.

I always wanted to write a book. I don't even care if it doesn't ever get published! Although seeing your name in print would be kind of cool! I never really thought I had the discipline to sit down and write page after page of something. Then it dawned on me!

I had kept a journal since my early teen years and most of my adult life. So I figured if I scanned through my journals and put all my favorite entries together, pretty soon I would have a book!

Pretty smart huh, even if I do say so myself!

I read a sign the other day that said, "Winners make things happen, losers watch things happen!" This really got me thinking. I never really was one for New Year's Eve resolutions. The way I looked at it, I don't have to wait until the end of a year to make a new resolution. Mostly because by the time the New Year came around I would forget what the heck I wanted to change anyway!

But mostly because that's what new days are for! So for today I made two resolutions:

1. I would go with plan B and

2. I would be someone that makes things happen.

Besides if you keep watching and staring at something for too long someone's going to think you are zoning out or just plain nosy!

Happy New Year's World!
