What do you want out of 2011? Whatever it might be, how much effort, planning and thought are putting into it? The reason that New Year's resolutions get a bad reputation is because we just will things to be different in our minds, but do very little to ensure success. There was a lot to my 2010 - many changes, many failures, but some really significant victories. My failures were from neglect - lack of attention, lack of effort. My victories were from fierce commitment and prayer.
I'm convinced that you can do anything you truly desire, commit to and work at. The problem we usually have is the follow through, which proves how important certain things really are. How many hours last year did you spend working towards those goals you set last year at this time? And then how many hours did you spend playing video games or stalking on facebook? I'm as guilty as the next guy, but its a point we can't ignore. If something is truly important and we really expect change or progress, we have to spend the time, work, and preparation for it.
Before the week is out I am going to sit down and think about what I want out of the coming year. I hope you will too and I would LOVE to hear some of your thoughts. Accountability is a fabulous thing!
