We go through our lives, doing what we do, forgetting to do what we should, doing things we shouldn't, and then . . .
It's New Year's Eve. We Celebrate. We Reflect. We Resolve.
For 24 hours (or 1440 minutes or 86400 seconds) we stop and think about where we are, where we are going, why, how, who . . .
You read the articles essays from the experts about how most resolutions fail. We suddenly expect to much of ourselves, and then don't seem to find the time to follow through. Our resolutions fail.
1440 minutes of reflection (or drinking, or talking, or sleeping, or . . .)
That works out to roughly 4 minutes a day.
Maybe . . .
Instead of waiting around until the end of the year to reflect, we should spend 4 minutes a day to focus.on what we need to do.
Just a thought. What do you think?
Happy New Years . . .

Sounds very much like my view on life and living in each moment. Peace and joy for you and yours in the new year
I love the idea of spending 4 minutes a day reflecting and thinking about what we want to alter in our lives. That is a great way to change the destined to fail "New Year's Resolution". Thanks for the insight. Here is to living into each moment in 2011.
Laura's Last Post: Why I Don't Make New Year's Resolutions
I make too many goals every week, no, every DAY to feel like making resolutions! I never kept them anyway, it's easier for me to keep goals short and sweet, I lose focus on year long goals too fast!
