News Years Resolution: Resolving to do Nothing!
It’s everyone’s favourite time of year, that time. It’s the new year and the time when we resolve to somehow resolve to better ourselves. By Feburary, those resolutions are being slowly forgotten and by March, they are completely neglected once people realise that those visions of grandeur were just fleeting moments of delusion. At the end of the day, the resolution is broken, and then subsequently recycled the next year, ad nauseum.
I’m saving myself the trouble. I’m not resolving to do anything. Instead, I’m simply just giving myself and objective goal. The goal is part of my quest that I like to call “Life”. Once I get my goal, I can then see what my next objective is. This is not a resolution. It’s just something I need to do in order to maximise my enjoyment of life.
I don’t need the year to turn over to set a goal. I need to look around me and realise that the goal is there and I need to make it happen. New Years is just an excuse for lazy people who don’t realise that they can make goals at any time in the year. They don’t need to wait for a certain day to begin the pursuit of their goal.
Some might suggest upon reading my blog that I resolve to try and write more frequently but I write when I’m ready because this is a hobby, not a job with deadlines and I intend to enjoy my blog as long as I have and keep it. I will write as I find stories that interest me. I don’t write just for the sake of writing, I write for my own pleasure and fulfilment. That is what a goal ought to be. Something that is something you need and want. You seek to fulfil a goal because you want to not because society expects you to.
Resolutions are the same thing. You can make them whenever you want and on whatever you want, not what is expected.
Stumble It!
