Starting Over

As Christmas comes around, New Years is closely around the corner. Does a new year passing mean we get to make a fresh start for ourselves? A lot of people think so, which is why we have "New Years Resolutions", mostly of which people make promises and don't keep them disappointing themselves. My hypothesis is that when you start over, that means making a clean start, clearing out your old thinking patterns that were not successfull the previous year and start with some fresh ideas to make a real change in your life. Otherwise, you will still be making the same decisions based on the specific mindset you have. Some of major disappointment, and some of just plain comfort zone based decisions. Whatever the case, it is important to experience a mindset that best suites your happiness. Change is a good thing, whether or not we think so at times. Maybe the worst changes can turn out for the best. In my case, I'm sure it's true. Just think of that when you wish for a new years resolution: Whether or not you will live up to your own expectations. The only way to do this is to think differently, think of success, think of yourself. Don't disappoint yourself. You are the most importnat person. You are the person you don't want to let down. Think of yourself as successful, no matter how many hard times approach you. Those who have family and friends are never a failure. Those who know how to love are the most successful people I know.
