Let me briefly define the word resolution. According to Merriam Webster, resolution derives from the word resolve which implies a solution or in other words problem solving. The prefix "re" means "again and again" or "back" (I hope y'all see where I'm going here), therefore it doesn't mean that each year we need to set brand new goals, but it means another opportunity to "re"-visit the old list and continue working over and over towards making those additional checks.
Don't be too hard on yourselves if you didn't accomplish all you've wanted in 2017, rather, be hopeful that with the new year brings strength and health and another chance to "re"-visit the list of yesteryear.
Ever, so often we tend to put bandaids on goals we've set and have failed, because we are so concerned with what the world thinks. We tend to cover it up and move on to the next, without a second attempt. Listen up, if anyone can speak about failure, IT'S ME. Don't be bothered by what people think. Be bold and rip off those bandaged dreams. I promise you'll be a better person for the new year. That's my aim. I hope this is speaking to some of you out there.
It's time for the "do-overs" people, that weight you didn't loose, that job you didn't get, that risk you didn't take or whatever the case may be. Put your best foot forward continue to persevere in your struggles, the race is not for the swift nor the strong, but for those who endures to the end!
A wise man once say, "our destiny is not written for us, but by us"-Barack Obama.
Go write your destiny folks, not only for the new year but for a lifetime.
Dress warm out there people! They say everything is better in black and white!
