Resolutions.

2010 keeps coming closer. A new year, a fresh start. It's time to think of some resolutions. What are you going to change about your way of living, way of being, during the upcoming year? As we approach 2010, and think about those changes we want to make in our lives, it's easy to feel stressed out. Many people feel like they need to make a lot of changes in their lives, just to create this 'perfect life' and 'perfect human being'. And I'm not saying it's bad to think that way, 'cause it's not. It's really good that you can realize that you're not perfect and that there are things that need to be fixed. Because no-one is perfect. But it can also turn out to make you feel very insecure. You feel like there are so many wrong things about your lifestyle that need to be changed, that you're a horrible person the way you are now. You can't wait for the new year to start to work on those 'mistakes'. I really think that's bad for your selfesteem. Because when it doesn't turn out the way you want it to, you will become even more depressed. And I don't think all that drama is necessary. That's why I want to challenge all of you to make one change, in stead of a million. One small change, repeated every day of 2010. One small change can already change your whole lifestyle. A million different changes really aren't necessary.
You just need to make one important & thoughtfull change.
Last year I made only one resolution too: Read in the bible every single day. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made. And that one small change made a huge difference in my life. So think about it these last few days: What one change do you need to make?
