The Messy Introvert

  This one will be short and simple. It's been a few years since I made the decision to no longer carry out the tradition of making New Year's Resolutions. At some point, it felt like a waste of time and energy to make a list of things I wanted to change about myself when I could simply start the journey of putting said changes into effect. I would also spend so much time debating over what I wanted to add to my list, only to neglect it later on. I simply decided years ago that if I was going to make any changes to my life, whether large or small, then I should just go ahead and do so. There was no need for major planning and scheduling; it wasn't rocket science, and it should not come with this much pressure. So that is exactly what I started to do, and I have zero regrets about that decision. And even if I make no major changes before the year begins, it doesn't matter because I can simply continue to focus on the aims or goals that I am already actively working on.  ...
