Here we are again. This is the starting place for all new possibilities to begin again. This time we are going to do it differently. This time we are going to get on that exercise program. This time we will forgo that extra meal or that extra scoop of ice cream. This time we will make our dreams happen and not let anything get in the way. This time we will honor ourselves with all our new choices with the greatest conviction and dedication until we run out of steam.

We are creatures of change who really want things to remain the same until we want them to change. If we really think about it, how many changes have we initiated? Did we welcome opportunities or were we compelled by circumstance to make the necessary changes? Did the changes surpass our expectations or did we have the worst possible outcomes? Did we choose the changes or did the changes choose us?
