There is nothing magical about making a new year’s resolution. If there were then we would all be fanstatically rich, extremely healthy and have very deep and wonderful relationships. It would be nice to think there was some cosmic world force that would make things happen for us just be saying we want it.

Sadly there isn’t. Even God doesn’t respond to the trantrums of his spoiled children as they demand wealth and happiness. I believe God does answer prayers but that is a subject for another day – or even another website perhaps.

Anyway if you want something you have to go and get it. One of those life lessons we all have to learn is that no one else is going to do it for us we have to get up off our fat backsides and make it happen. Fortuneately every now and then you will come across people who will want to help but they will only help you to help yourself.

Breaks come because people make them happen.

When you mkae your new year resolutions make sure you intend to do something about making them happen so this time next year you aren’t left wondering what happened.
