I don't think the new year should be about being a brand new person. I think the new year should be about changing your ideas, your intentions, and your perspective. And that is exactly what I intend to do.
2014 was rough, between my depression, my downfalls, and my relationships I'd definitely say with no exaggeration it was one of the worst years of my life. But I don't want 2015 to be a repeat. I don't want to go into 2015 with the same perspective as I did this past year. I want to change and I want to go into this year positively.
1. I will stop being so darn hard on myself. I am a work in progress, this is not my finished product. I really need to remember that.
2. I will stop giving my all to others and leaving myself with nothing. I need to be more selfish. I tend to fill up everybody else's love tank, leaving myself with nothing.
3. I will stop expecting so much from others. People will do what they want and I can't keep trying to change them. And I can't beat myself up over their actions.
4. Don't let my situation change me. I know who I am and to let my pain, my heartache, or my scars affect that is not fair to me. I need to just be true to myself.
5. Stay positive positive positive. Your attitude affects your altitude. I won't be able to get anywhere with a negative attitude.
These are five things I want to bring with me into the new year. Everything else I leave behind.
One thing I learned from 2014 is how much honesty really means to me. I used to think brutally honest people were rude but now I like that. I like that they are not afraid to hurt you with the truth. And I really respect that.
Well with this I say goodbye to 2014, thank you for the lessons. Hello 2015...I'm ready :)
