New Years Resolutions

Today is the last Monday of 2009.  For many people, the start of a new year is a time to make changes.  Not me.  I don’t believe in making new years resolutions, and if you’re serious about your career, neither should you. 

I’ve made several changes in my life this year.  Earlier in the year, I quit smoking.  Currently, I’m working on not letting my dirty dishes sit over night.  These were areas that I needed to improve and so I took action.  There’s nothing special or magical about January 1st.  The new year doesn’t imbibe you with any extra willpower.  If you need to change something in your life, don’t wait until this weekend – do it today.  Right now. 

It generally takes 21 days to turn something into a habit so make today day number one!
