Happy New Years everyone. I hope everyone enjoyed the holidays, and if not, at least have a better outlook on the year to come. This is also a time for resolutions. I’ve made 2 for myself:
1) Not taking responsibility for people’s reactions, when what I say doesn’t come from a place of malice. It’s kind of like that saying “You can take a horse to water, but you can’t force it to drink.” You can only try to guide people in the best way you can, but it’s still their choice to ultimately listen. If they can’t handle the criticism, then it’s up to life to teach them that lesson the hard way.
2) Never go against my gut instinct. Over the years, I’ve come to learn that usually a lot of conflicts and detrimental situations arise from moments where I didn’t take heed to the sinking feeling in my stomach. It’s been more right than I have and this is the year where I’m trying to have minute amount of errors overall.
What are some of your resolutions this year, and why’d you choose them?
