Make the Most of What You Have
January 16, 2010 – 5:56 pmHappy New Year to all of my readers, the two regulars that are out there somewhere!
It has been far too long and I am back again, hopefully back to posting at least once a week. As I thought about my resolutions for the coming year, I reflected on what I most wanted out of my life. I will spare you the entirety of my resolutions, but the major one is relatively simple: to enjoy my life, something (no matter how small) every day.
It’s easy to get bogged down in the stress of daily/weekly life; to focus only on the negative. I should know because at times I am an All-Pro at this. For me it can start with something as simple as enjoying a day like today, in which I had nothing that I had to do. I just took a shower at 4:30 PST after sleeping in this morning, having a wonderful omelet brunch, and watching playoff football. Even when I am having a day like today, when I actually get to do what I want to do, I have trouble not getting restless and wondering if there is something I should be doing. That should be another resolution for me- eliminate the word “should” and focus instead on what I am doing or can do.
I hope you’re starting the year of right, which means starting it out the way you want to, and I will leave you with a link to truly uplifting and wonderful video. It really puts life into perspective and you can’t help wanting to make the most of what you have.
