New Years' resolutions are a waste of time in my opinion. I'm not going to set myself up for failure yet again by making false promises that I know at some point in time I won't keep. So why bother? Instead, I think it's better to focus on the positives in life.
There are many discussions on positive affirmations. While I'm no expert on the subject, I've finally realized that my way of enforcing positive affirmations is to take a long look at myself and then say, "What do I like about myself?"

You have to understand that hubby's very analytical (and you know what the first four letters of analytical spells ![]() I'm also a good listener (or sounding board as some call it). When asked for advice, I try to put a new perspective on the subject, instead of simply taking the easy way out by telling a person what they think they want to hear. I give a great deal of thought to what I think would be sage advice. And, I don't get insulted if the advice isn't taken, that's not my goal. My goal is to give "food for thought" (no pun intended ![]() So I will spend my efforts in 2011 remembering the good things about myself and building those strengths. This will be my New Year For Positive Affirmations. ![]()
