I have
resolved to live more and worry less. What does that mean?
I want to
live more. I want to do more with my life than I have been doing. I want
to go out more, talk to more people, keep in better touch with my
friends. I want to read more books and watch less television. I want to
get in better physical shape and stay that way. I want to eat delicious
food but maintain a health-conscious diet. I want to be creative and to
revere the creativity of
others.
I want to travel more. I want to broaden my horizons. I want more out of
life.
Worry
less. I want to be less afraid of people. I want to take more chances. I
want to do things that make me a little uncomfortable. I want to put
myself out there and risk rejection. I want to be myself and not worry
about my minor flaws or mistakes. I want to stop comparing myself to
everyone else. I want to break paradigms and push boundaries. I want to
stop pigeonholing myself into my
preconceived notions of what is in my character and what isn't.
So now, I
have some self-training to do. I will turn off the TV and call up a
friend. I will hop on the stationary bike with a good book in hand. I
will schedule time off from work, catch a flight and explore new places
on my own. I will sing in
the car
even if my windows are rolled down in heavy traffic.
I'm going
to live more and worry less.
