It is that time of year again. Time to re-evaluate the good, bad, and ugly. I can already feel my anticipation waning. I am not a goal oriented person. I know what I need to do and I do it, if it is short term and not too stressing. Sure I like to dream about a brighter future. The difficult part for me is thinking up steps to actually make it materialize. I fall into routine or lack the initiative to follow through. They are called ruts because one occupies the same space everyday.
Perhaps that should be new resolve. To have more resolve. I tend to give up when it gets tough. I see the 45 minute prep time and not the 5 minutes of enjoying the dessert.
The thing about life is getting out what is put into it. I know that I have "lucked" or been blessed into things. Most, if not all, I have has been given to me. What do I bring to a relationship? A lot of times it seems not much.
However, life requires active participation. If I want a handout, I have to make sure my hand has been emptied by giving to someone else.
Maybe 2012 will be my year of drive and then I can enjoy the ride.
