Starting New.

Most people make the decision to make a change in their life at the beginning of the year. I've always made New Year's Resolutions, and I always have the best intentions to stick to them, and every year I fail. I think that's because deep down I am very much of the belief that you have to truly want to give something up or make a change, and a date isn't always a good enough reason to do that. An event, life changing, or even just something small enough to trigger an emotion and make you step back and think is what it takes and yesterday I got that emotion that has made me decide to make a change. It has been a long time coming, and there has been many failed attempts, but this time I am determined to sort myself out. Turning 21 in just under a year's time means it is time for me to stop acting the way I have been and make the hard decisions. I don't know how well this plan is going to pan out, but I am going to try my very very best to do everything right. My strategy is organisation and distraction. Wish me luck.
