In January many of us like to make resolutions. \u00a0Maybe we want to lose weight, get more organized, spend more time with family, or one of any other goals.<\/p>\n
There isn’t anything inherently wrong with wanting to improve yourself. \u00a0We all should want to be the best version of ourselves. \u00a0The problem with resolutions is that we tend to set ourselves up for failure. \u00a0We set goals that are virtually impossible for us to achieve. \u00a0We want to lose 100 lbs in 6 months. \u00a0We want to reorganize all our closets to Pinterest perfection. \u00a0We want to write the great American novel. \u00a0We want to have the perfect family.<\/p>\n
Alas, none of us are perfect. \u00a0And so we fail to meet these impossible goals. \u00a0Then we eat more. \u00a0We don’t organize anything. \u00a0We don’t write or paint or sew anything. \u00a0And that is sad.<\/p>\n
