From One Good Deed by Erin McHugh:
“January 2. Resolve.
I didn’t talk about New Year’s resolutions yesterday because I was busy thinking about the vodka, but today, as the new year fully settles in, it’s time to consider.
This year I simply want to feel just a little better every day about my place in the world, and inspire others to do the same. A little more from everybody = a lot.
The advice I give myself every year on the resolution front, and that I’m happy to pass along to you, is to remember that resolution are like diets. Don’t dream too big; you’ll only be disappointed. But inch by inch, pound by pound – that’s in the ballpark.”
