Looking forward!
I've decided one of my New Year's Resolutions (capitalized for importance) is to try and be more positive and have a more positive outlook even when I'm not feeling well. It'll be hard. Being positive and staying positive takes a lot more energy than being negative all the time. But I think it will be better for me.
I tend to think like a spoiled kid sometimes. I view minor details as major inconveniences when I could probably stand to appreciate more. Even for someone in a state of stress and flux that I am in, I have a lot to appreciate. I've got a good family, good friends, all kinds of things I should be thankful for.
More importantly, though, I think by looking at everything through a negative lens I miss out on a lot of opportunities, and I make myself unhappy. That's not to say I shouldn't see everything in a positive light. Some things are worth snarking at :P But a lot of things I tend to see as inconveniences are often not as bad as I actually make it. And I could probably get a lot more enjoyment out of everything if I start making myself enjoy it more.
The past couple days I've gone into work with a good attitude and the days have been pretty good despite being busy. So I am going to try and harness that and make better use of it. Much better.
I kinda forgot about this entry halfway through so I lost my train of thought. But there we go. New years resolution to go!
