“New Year”
I have never gotten the hype of the “new year”, the new year has always seemed to me to be a time when majority of people create unrealistic goals they have for this year. Only to come up short and then complain about how bad of a year it was. I don’t understand the thinking behind most new years resolutions. Why do people think one night of drinking heavily and staying up late is going to transfer into motivation to better ones self the next year? I hear people use the excuse ill wait till “new years” before starting something, such as weight loss, budgeting, or whatever it may be. But once its that time they still don’t do it.
Its not about a new year its about not being lazy and acting upon your goals to better your self. I have never made a new years resolution or at least not one that I can remember. And i’m not going to start now, However I am going to stop being lazy and do what I need to do to better my self this year.
I am going to focus this year and all my years from now on on my relationship with god. What I mean by that is actually putting in the work that it takes to be in a relationship with god. Not just telling people Im a christian but not doing anything to better my self as one.
The way that looks for me this year is by starting to read the bible, im going to be honest, I have never read it before. Out of pure laziness and lack of motivation. I will also be focusing on my prayer life and reading other books that will help me out with this process.
Im not setting an end goal for my self, mainly because there isn’t a goal to achieve, you should never be satisfied with your relationship with god, you should always want to better it and become closer to god.
This post wasn’t meant to slam those of you that have new year resolutions, even though it probably will come across as that. The main reason for this is to share my point of view, that is has nothing to do with it being a new year. It has to be about you wanting to better your self and to stop being lazy and actually do it.
