I share the following poem I read in a doctor’s office, while waiting for my appointment. I read it several times and found myself attaching specific comments and pledges to myself to achieve to each letter listed. I encourage you to do similarly, by first reading and rereading the list over and over again and jotting on paper what you plan to achieve this year. Example: A – Avoid negative sources, people, things and habits. I wrote down specific people, things, and habits I will not allow myself to perpetuate this year. Writing your intentions is the key. Just thinking about it mentally won’t work.
