A story about a girl who wants to change 12 things about herself… one month a time…
and so far it’s easy… I mean… I am thinking about the fact that I will never have fried food again and all that SURE… but also… I am not so hungry here in the middle of the night… so that works out well… I am glad I stayed up for it!
Well, it looks like it’s after midnight, and here I go… no more fried food for me! I am so totally freaking out here, but I think I can do it! I mean I have made it almost an hour, right? And, all I have to do is make it one month, then I get to look back on the month and decide if I am going to go through it! SO… NO MORE FRIED FOOD! I can’t believe how nervous I am about this, but I am. I guess I am just nervous that I started all this, and am scared I won’t finish it. I have a tendency to not follow through with things, I guess that is a big reason why I started all this. I really WANT to follow through with everything! I feel like this will be a good way to make myself more reliable!
So, this is the last day of the bad habits…. from now on I am going to work to make myself a better person! I can’t imagine being able to look back on the year and being impressed with how far I have come… instead of being excited about a couple of things, but all in all disappointed with my own personal lack of growth. Don’t get me wrong… I am not a bad person, and I think I am pretty happy in my life, but I just want to see myself as a different person at the end of next year. So, here I go! I need luck, good thoughts, and pretty much anything else I can get right now!
The first thing I am giving up is fried food. I know that it isn’t good for me, and I am going to give it everything I’ve got to stop eating that junk. And as an added bonus, I think my three year old will start eating less of it too! I have decided fried food includes anything that is battered or deep fried. So see ya later chicken nuggets, potato chips, and French Fries!
This is kind of a big deal for me… I am a picky eater, but I think I can do it! Tomorrow is my last day of fried food! I guess I better make it count…
Okay, so here’s the deal… Here we are at the end of the year… and I think I am the exact same person as I was last year… a stay at home mom who loves her kid and husband, is pretty happy with life and things, but has some things she thinks she should change about herself. So I decided to come up with my own plan… One I think will actually work!
I am planning on spending the year breaking one bad habit a month. I am going to work as hard as I can to make it through each month without actually breaking my habit, and then at the end of the month I will decide if it is a habit I want to keep broken, or if it is something in my life that I just can’t live with out. So here goes! I hope you follow along with me on my journey, and that I don’t bore you too much! I am excited about this adventure! I hope that it works!
In twelve months I plan to change 12 things about myself. Each month I will pick a bad habit I have and spend the entire month working to change it. At the end of the month I will decide if j want to give up the habit forever or if it just wasn't worth it. Hopefully, at the end of the year I will be able to look back and see reqal improvements in myself. This is a personal experiment, but I plan to share it with everyone else here! Thanks for taking the time to check out my bad habits!
