The issue I have with New Year resolutions is that the resolution soon fades, and is typically forgotten or abandoned by spring. And then the cycle repeats without any more success next year. Instead of this pattern, here’s a suggestion—something I’ve been trying now for about 4 years.
Consider 2 things: first, what little thing can you do today that makes you appreciate the here and now? Try to hold on to that sense of fulfillment each day.
Second, what might you change in your life that would make you happier? New job? Take a risk and finally tell that person how you feel about them? Make a pilgrimage? Whatever it is, commit to getting to that goal each day.
For me, this mindset is what finally freed me from a unfulfilling but steady job and got me out to prioritize my photography. And as long as I’ve been doing this, I’ve been happier and healthier.
Just get there and find your bliss. Life is good. 💙
