I'm usually not big on making New Year's resolutions. Self-improvement should be just as important a task in July as it is in January. I am good, however, at breaking resolutions because they usually involve denying myself something that I enjoy. Yes, in 2011, I could LOSE some weight. I could GIVE UP caffeine. I could swear LESS. I could QUIT smoking. (OK, that last one isn't so bad. I'm on attempt number four!)
However, in the spirit of ABUNDANCE, which I spoke about in an
earlier post, I want to develop a list of resolutions that EXPAND the possibilities for health and happiness for me and others. So, here's a working list of "MORE" resolutions for 2011:
- MORE Mindfulness of the food I eat, the body I inhabit and the planet we share
- MORE Work that truly matters, both professionally and personally
- MORE Advocacy for causes about which I feel deeply
- MORE Connections with people that are real and sustainable
- MORE Explorations into big ideas and cosmic questions
I'm sure I will think of MORE resolutions in the coming days and weeks, but this is a good start. Most of all, I wish everyone in 2011 more PEACE, LOVE, FORGIVENESS and ABUNDANCE.
Happy New Year!!!
