Happy New Year! Decisions, Determination and Dreams

As the new year rolls around, many of us take the time to reflect on the past year and set new goals and resolutions for the year ahead. While it can be easy to get caught up in the excitement of a fresh start and make a long list of ambitious goals, it is important to remember that making lasting change requires more than just good intentions. It requires decision-making, determination, and the willingness to pursue our dreams.


But, why do we make new year resolutions? One of the keys to achieving our resolutions is making strong, well-thought-out decisions. Making decisions is an essential part of life. It helps us take control of our lives and make things happen. When we make a decision, we are choosing a direction and committing to it. This means taking the time to carefully consider our options and choosing the path that will lead us closer to our goals. It also means being willing to let go of things that may be holding us back, such as bad habits or toxic relationships.

The act of making a decision gives us a sense of agency and helps us feel like we are in charge of our own lives. Making difficult decisions can be challenging, but it's an essential part of the journey towards self-improvement and success.

But making a decision is just the first step. In order to turn our goals into reality, we also need to be determined. Determination is the willingness to keep going, even when things get tough. It is what helps us overcome obstacles and setbacks and stay focused on our goals. It is easy to get discouraged when we encounter setbacks or challenges, but it is important to stay focused and keep moving forward. Without determination, it is easy to give up and settle for less than what we really want.

Pursuing our dreams is also an important aspect of living a fulfilling life. It requires us to take action. This means setting specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART) goals, and then taking the necessary steps to achieve them. It also means being willing to put in the hard work and effort required to make our dreams a reality.

We all have things that we are passionate about and pursuing these passions can bring a sense of purpose and meaning to our lives. Whether it is writing a book, starting a business, or traveling the world, pursuing our dreams gives us the opportunity to create a life that is truly our own.

So, as you reflect on your resolutions for the new year, remember that making lasting change requires more than just good intentions. It requires strong decision-making, determination, and the willingness to pursue your dreams. With these qualities, you will be well on your way to achieving your goals and making the most of the year ahead. Happy new year!
