You don't need a new year to start a resolution...
"Okay... It's finally happened; Mr. Fruits and Vegetables has gone and lost his gluten free mind! What the f*** are you talking about?!"
Oh I'm sorry my foul mouthed friend, please allow me to elaborate:
No one is going to make more of a difference in your life then, yup... You guessed it - yourself! So stop waiting for your friends to make those stupid bets on who's going to lose the most weight by Christmas and just do it yourself. Stop asking what's for dinner when you know you'll end up upset at the answer because it's not "healthy" enough for your new lifestyle. Solution? Do it yourself!
"I still don't get it"
... Why am I not surprised? In short, what I'm saying is;
NO ONE WANTS TO CHANGE YOU MORE THEN.... (spoiler alert) YOURSELF!
Personally; I believe in the power of positivity. However, I am also a realist and the reality of life often comes to us in our toughest of times. I'm sure most of us can relate but for the more naive, allow me to be the bearer of bad news; Throughout your life, as perfect as it is right now, people will come into it and people will leave it. Both will make impacts and others won't matter. Most will be there for you in your times of need, some will help celebrate your greatest accomplishments while others won't falter to reap the benefits of your failures.
One things for sure, it will always be to your advantage for you to take full ownership of your mistakes and learn from their consequences because if Dr. Phil has taught us anything it's that no one has to live your life but you.
"So basically all you're saying is that 'you're your own worst enemy'"
Nah, that's too negative, I'd rather look at it from a positive perspective;
"You're Your Own Best Friend"
Whatever your own definition of a best friend is, be that kind of person to yourself even if it's only temporary.
Because in the words of my good friend Orson Wells;
“We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not in fact alone.”
