Have you made any New Year’s resolutions this year and, if you did, are
they still intact? Writing for The
Guardian, Oliver Burkeman says that he has long campaigned for the abolition of
New Year’s resolutions but, recognising their continuing popularity, he wants
to suggest three – which he then suggests we should all take up.
First, he suggests that we should take up meditating. If we think we haven’t got the time, just
five minutes a day will do it – but just that bit of space is worth
making. Secondly, he suggests stopping
doing something this year. This is not
about giving up a bad habit, but recognising that most of us take on too many
things. What is it we could/should be
giving up? And, thirdly, he encourages
us to resolve to cut everyone a massive amount of slack, including ourselves. Well, if you haven’t made
your own, and you want some, I hope that these suggestions might help.
