By now, many of us have broken our resolutions. We haven’t gotten to the gym as many times as we wanted, we had the dessert last weekend or we are not feeling as calm, patient, positive or ______ as we promised.
We don’t have to be or do all or nothing to make big shifts in our lives. Like a ship in an ocean, if we make a five or ten degree shift, we will chart a new course. We will land in a new place.
Remembering this will allow us to give permission when we have a setback and not beat up on ourselves.
As the year progresses, know the direction you want to head. Keep making milestones on the path. You will arrive in a different location. and you don’t have to make a 180 degree shift all at once.
