The freshness of the New Year is exciting. It offers the chance to redo, refocus, and recommit to the better existence we long for. Crossing over into the new year, we hit the ground running with our lists of do’s, don’ts, and best year ever goals. And we sprint intensely toward better health, better finances, better relationships, and better choices. But, how long will your passionate pursuit of better last this New Year?

We’re now two and a half weeks in, and the year is successfully progressing on. Are you?

Has your pace slowed? Or, have you already come to a complete stop? If so, take comfort in knowing that you are not alone. In fact, you’re a part of the majority.

It’s a struggle to decide. You don’t want to appear self-centered. You also dread dealing with the anticipated disappointment you may cause if you say no. Great for the person or thing you say yes to. But, what price are you paying for not saying no?

After dinner, your phone alarm goes off. It’s a reminder you need to be at your friend’s house in 30 minutes for the first meeting of the book club she started. Finally home for the evening, you remember you wanted to get started on the essay required for your graduate school application.

I know, I know.

You would spend more time with those dearest to you, you would update your resume, you would pursue your dream, you would volunteer more, or you would [insert any other thing you desire to do but haven’t] …if you had more time. So much to do, so little time.

Truth be told, we all get the same portion of time each day.  It’s how you allocate your time that permits you to get to the things you desire to do.

And, if you haven’t already recognized it, being disorganized costs you time. Time you could be using for that goal you set, but are having trouble figuring out how to fit it in.
