Enjoy these New Year musings from M.D...
Buh Bye 2011!
Oh where does the time go? It seems like just yesterday we were ringing in the 2011 New Year with high hopes and loads of resolutions. Little did we know, unemployment would reach an all time high, Charlie Sheen would be on a winning, tiger blood fueled crazy train; that the Arab world would have an uprising; and Occupy Wherever would be occupying everywhere! Now I don’t know if 2012 will be any better but I can promise it will be one day longer. J
While I made my resolutions months ago (that way I would be way ahead of the game) many still see every New Year as an opportunity to make a change for the better. Hence some simple affirmations I compiled to help you along the way:
1.) Be yourself
2.) Don’t blow with the wind
3.) (Try to) Be positive
4.) Never be too proud to ask for help
5.) Think outside the box
6.) Remember: Life isn’t always fair
7.) Always try to make a good impression
8.) Be kind
9.) Choose your housemates carefully
10.) Beauty is all around you
11.) Be observant (in other words: Watch where you are going!)
12.) Don’t hide your light under a bushel
13.) Don’t be envious
14.) Grow old gracefully
15.) Never interrupt when you are being flattered
16.) Plan Ahead
17.) You can if you think you can
18.) If at first you don’t succeed, try, try, try and try again!
19.) Forget insults, remember compliments
20.) Be a good listener
21.) Healthy body, healthy mind
22.) Be a team player
23.) Honesty is the best policy
24.) It is better to give than to receive
25.) Patience is a virtue
26.) Learn to follow instructions
27.) Always keep a great photo of yourself, even if you have to snap 118 shots to get it! :)
Happy New Year ~ M.D.
