We are humans.
We live, and learn, and make mistakes, and learn again.
The thought that all of a sudden, we can jump into a whole new being, into a whole new person, contradicts this fact of our human existence.
New year, new moment to work towards becoming better?
Absolutely.
New year, magically change?
It doesn’t work that way.
Recognizing that this is the way we function allows us that space to be human.
To evolve.
To grow.
Thinking that we must change because the calendar flipped over one digit?
Yes, use it as a moment for reflection, to work towards making better decisions.
But don’t get discouraged if you can’t magically change.
No one can. We all go through a process and through a cycle of ups and downs.
And recognizing that is freeing so you can allow yourself the space to go through your OWN process of growth.
