Don’t resolve to succeed. Resolve to work at it.
Don’t resolve to know it. Resolve to think about it.
Don’t resolve to know it all. Resolve to learn more.
When you don’t meet with absolute success (and you won’t), remember that you weren’t aiming for absolute success ... You were aiming to learn more. That way, you won’t need to quit because you failed. You can just keep learning more, and that makes you ... a success.
An all-or-nothing mind-set is a fantastic way to abbreviate the whole process of setting goals and making resolutions. As soon as you see you can’t do it all, you can quit!
Instead, simply resolve to make one change and think about it, reflect on it, and go from there. You don’t have to do it all. And you don’t have to do nothing. There’s a lot of good stuff in-between.
Today I will bring all my paperwork up to date so that maybe I can go back into the studio to clean and then start making some more jewelry. The shows will start before I know it!
Happy New Year to all.

Sounds like an excellent plan. I was just thinking I needed to get my papers in order. Love that picture!
