Someday is today

"I think in terms of the day's resolutions, not the year's."
-Henry Moore


Perhaps you've made some New Year's resolutions—big goals like writing a book, losing 20 pounds, or finally getting organized. So how do these goals come to pass? By daily attention.

The choices we make each day are what add up to a year-end result. Think: What could you give up in the next 12 hours to fit in some writing? How could you eat lighter just for this day? What if you set a timer for 15 minutes and cleaned up one space?

When you realize that your days are the building blocks of a year's dream, you won’t let them slip by. Doing something now, even a small change or a baby step, will add up. Over the course of twelve months—almost imperceptibly—real progress will be made.

What could you resolve to do today?

  1. Great post, I love looking at time and choices like this, in increments. Sometimes if you look at a month or year and try to plan, it's just too overwhelming. But one small step at a time, one 15 minute increment at a time, can work wonders moving us closer to our goals.
