Sticking to Your New Year's Resolution

I’m sure you’ve already guessed by now that this blog is about beauty. There is the inner and the outer, but both are equally impor­tant forms of beauty. Many of us make New Year’s res­o­lu­tions hav­ing to do with this impor­tant facet of our human nature. Whether you’ve decided on a goal to lose 10 lbs. or 100 lbs., start tak­ing bet­ter care of your skin, develop good eat­ing habits that will ben­e­fit your appear­ance, or any man­ner of well-intentioned desires, you know it’s impor­tant to stick to the plan.

So to help us all stick with our New Year’s res­o­lu­tions, here is an inspir­ing and brief pas­sage that I hope you find helpful:

Then inde­ci­sion brings its own delays,
And days are lost lament­ing over lost days.
Are you in earnest? Seize this very minute;
What you can do, or dream you can do, begin it;
Bold­ness has genius, power and magic in it.

—Goethe

Keep in mind that all you have to do to reach your goal is to sim­ply begin. Tak­ing that one step for­ward is per­haps the hard­est part, but once you take the step and are com­mit­ted to walk­ing up the rest of the stairs, then you will be able to reap all the amaz­ing ben­e­fits of stick­ing to your New Year’s res­o­lu­tion. Just keep that in mind. Here’s to your Health and Beauty!
