New Year's Resolution, Word Of The Year 2013

New Year's Resolutions.....it's just too easy to set unrealistic goals and expectations and never meet them. We expect that by giving our unmet expectations and goals a new name.....Resolutions......we somehow think that they'll miraculously be accomplished. How many people make New Year's resolutions only to forget about them by March, or even sooner. Instead of writing a list of resolutions this year,  I have chose a word of the year and it is " PROGRESS"!  This year, I just want to see progress.....to move forward, to have a steady improvement in my life. I may not get to my whole list of things I want to accomplish, but I will make progress in all areas I can.  I have lots of things I want to change and improve..  I am going to be realistic in knowing that I will not be able to accomplish them all..LIFE happens and we have to change routines and commit to other things and we can not always balance everything.....but I can attempt to change the things I can and do the things I want to do, and be the person I want to be... one step at a time, in a slow and steady PROGRESS!
