Work. Think. Eat. I could definitely do less of all those. Oh, but if only it were that easy!
We’re nearing the end of the year, so that means it’s time to think of our New Year’s Resolutions, and, well, I need to lose weight… same as last year. As always, I will aim to be optimistic for the next year despite failing the previous years to accomplish this goal. I’ve been hearing consistently that we need to believe in order to achieve, so….
Anyways, enough thinking. Just do.
Speaking of not thinking, this year, I confronted my fear of the dentist and willingly got my braces done. I tried not too think too hard of the discomfort and pain and pulling and picking and what-not and just got it done. It’s certainly… an experience, but I’m proud of finally doing it. Plus I figure it’ll help discourage me of the more tempting foods and thus help me with my weight loss goal? Eh, whatever gets me through it.
Next year, I’d also like to work smarter, not harder. I’ve always been a hard worker, but lately I feel it’s harder to keep that up. It’s just not sustainable anymore. I have become far less tolerant of stress in the past few years, so I certainly have to do something about that. I also would like to find my passion. I want to do things that don’t feel like work, but it’s like… I don’t feel much for anything, but the people around me seem so driven that I wonder if maybe there’s just something wrong with me. Am I missing something? Or maybe I just haven’t found my thing.
I need to look for that thing.
