Well? How's it going...
The new diet...the new resolution...the new workout...the new you...the new year?
So really, how's it going for you? Most Americans decide the new year is the time to start or stop doing something. Start the diet or exercise program, stop the bad habit, start reading the Bible in a year, stop procrastinating about cleaning out that closet or writing the book that's been in your mind for years, start a new prayer/devotion time with God, stop gossiping, start...stop...start...stop...And by the time the new year is just days old, it's all back to the way it was before.
Sometimes, it gets pretty confusing, doesn't it? Our lists of dissatisfaction in ourselves can be pretty cumbersome. We want to be able to say that this is the year! No more putting off, no more mistakes in 2011 (I mean 2012)...So much for perfection; I can't even get the year right!
