So, I didn't accomplish everything I set out to do today. You know what though: It's okay. Sometimes we get so hard on ourselves when things don't go exactly how we had planned. So many resolutions (New Years or otherwise) are broken the first or second time someone slips up. We are human. It's bound to happen. As long as we learn from the missteps and grow as a result, no shortcoming need be classified a failure. Sure, I left some things undone, but that doesn't mean I can't celebrate all I did accomplish:
1. Washed all my laundry and bedding.
2. Bought a full set of groceries (and quite a few articles of clothing for work) for the first time in over a year.
3. Scheduled a dentist appointment.
4. Got a haircut.
5. Washed, cleaned out, and fueled up my car.
6. Helped my aunt and uncle with their garage door.
7. Re-registered at IWU so I can graduate.
Life's full of good and bad, successes and failures. The good doesn't always outweigh the bad, but in the same turn, the bad doesn't have to rule out the good. So today I choose to celebrate my accomplishments rather than wallow in my missed opportunities. After all, three steps forward and one step back is still movement in the right direction.
p.s Special shout out to whomever checked my last post on a Macbook using Chrome within 30 seconds of me posting. You are appreciated. :-)
