of time , effort , and energy . You must be living , an incredible life of dedication , discipline , formative , action , producing a year by year , higher standard , and I applaud you , my congratulations and my respect . For you you are a rare human being , I wonder a mere mortal ? I say that with tongue in my cheek . Nevertheless , you are like some I have not yet had the pleasure of meeting . However , I have had the pleasure of meeting a select few , who treat each day , as a new day of nuanced micro resolutions . In their habit ’ s lifestyle , and behaviour patterns . Directing their course daily , living right to the design of their ultimate vision of health , happiness , prosperity and well-being . Think on that a little , we ’ ll come back to it . For the rest of us out there , myself included as I mentioned , above , I ’ ll tell you straight . NO , New Year ’ s resolutions do not work . It is a scenario of excuses and self manipulation by which we use , to console ourselves of why we have not done this life-changing thing ( s ), yet . New Year ’ s resolutions are Built with exit strategies , reserve shoots , and pink cards to each and every construct , the “ resolution ” represents . It is a failure based , self-fulfilling prophecy from the outside . If you disagree or don ’ t believe me , just ask your friends and family , equally to reflect on their own “ New Year ’ s resolution ” of current times , or years past . See how many of those resolutions were streamlined and successful , which came to fruition . Levy this against all of them , and recognize that the are all revolving resolutions . Very much like the turnstile a merry go round , a centrifuge of good intention , yet with no follow through to completion . New Year ’ s resolutions are a way of insulating ourselves to protect the same habits and behavioural patterns that got us to the place where we needed to make resolutions to change our circumstances , in the first place . Friends our circumstances , are largely self created and chosen , little by little , day by day month by month , they compound . I understand that they may be painful , tragic , terribly difficult , and some of us have a multitude to unpack . However , what is not , painful , Tragic or difficult , is that we have the ability to initiate change minute by minute hour by hour , this perspective is actually the beginning of our past freedom from the multitude , we have amassed over our life .
Daily , we have the power to influence correction to our circumstances , if need be , hour by hour . Yes , that ’ s right friends here today right now . HOW !? Simple , it is merely CHOICE . Just like we have chosen to continue not change or alter our lifestyle , habit and behaviour patterns , as they compound and concentrate minute by minute hour by hour , month by month year-by-year . We choose that path every day we wake up , or every night we wake up , depending on our schedule . We choose how we spend the time ; we cannot save . We choose how to fill our life with the things that will hurt us , or the inverse , that will heal us .
