New Year’s Resolutions – 7 weeks in
Did you make some New Year’s Resolutions seven weeks ago? I did, but I haven’t begun my exercise regimen yet. After all, it’s only been seven weeks!
I heard one of our recent addiction recovery program graduates say “changing your life is tough.” He is right. A little more than two years ago, this young man was lost (his own words) and now he says everything looks new to him. Through some very difficult months, he worked to develop a new way of thinking, and a new way of living that would bring him to a clean and sober lifestyle. Now, everything feels new and tastes new. He is experiencing new life.
His resolution is now to “pay attention to what is happening in his daily life.” It’s not just a New Year’s Resolution, it’s a daily resolution. I am so encouraged with his progress.
And now, I’m back to thinking about my exercise regimen!
