Shortly, this year will go and will come another and between this coming and going, there is the famous New Year's Resolutions. The New Year's Resolutions, it's the time of the year when we have to chance, to reflect on the past twelve months and look forward to the endless possibilities of the next twelve months. It's a time full of hope, positivity and a feeling of purpose.
As much as it is a beautiful notion, I'm totaly againts it. I think that it's a procrastinator's ideal defense: "I'll start in the New Year". According to Static Brain, a web page where people can say their new years resolution and then, ther is a ranking with the most said, the 45% of the people make a New Year's resolutions with the promises of "enjoying life to the fullest", "change my life" or "do something more/better" and being ones of the highest ranked, but I don't understand why wait to get started a new goal? I think that the date it's what matters the least, if you really whant to change something of your life or start a new way of life, why don't start right now? or if there is something going on in your life that you don't like, why you don't change it now? In fact, starting now will ultimately benefit you. I think that the countdown to a new beginning starts every day when you wake up, not every fisrt day of the New Year. If it feels right to start now, start now, it's not so complicated. Don't wait for tomorrow, next week or the 1st of January. What's the difference between starting on a Thursday, in November or in the secon weekend of a month? A date won't define your succes.
Maybe, you decide to put a date for make a change or take up something because you may never feel like you are entirely ready to start your next move and it's easier to make an excuse (that it's already say "tomorrow"), but waiting is just limiting yourself. For sure, that everybody has heard the typical phrase "don't leave for tomorrow what you can do today" and this phrase have a lot of truth! If it's no like this, tell me what it's going to change tomorrow for do what you didn't dare to do today? What makes you belive that you will feel ready tomorrow or on 1st of January? We have to believe that we are capable of doing wathever we put on our minds to.
Another typical phrase that also have a lot of truth is the next: "don't wait for the perfect moment, make the perfect moment". By starting now, you will be one step nearest of your objective than starting in January, I mean, where you thought you could be in January, you could be now, in December.
We all have 365 days (sometimes up to 366) to take up something or make achange in our life, so please, use all of them.
