Give yourself a break before the new year

It's about a day and some hours till we hit the new year. I am sure there are lots of you out there waiting for the cross over so you can make another attempt at starting over again and hopefully have a new chance to make things better in your life. Here is one simple tip that could help you. Give yourself a little break before the new year.


Do you remember back in primary school? Were mid -term breaks where like everything to us. Even though they lasted only from Thursday and through the weekend but we cherished them so much. And when the break was over you would come back to school with this new energy and depending on if you had parents that were nothing like mine, you could even come back with a new pencil. Lol. You know that refreshing feeling you just get after you take that break, it is the same thing I am talking about here.
   
Changes do not come automatically and wearing yourself out doing the same thing over and over while waiting for the new year to make changes could prove to be counter productive. Why not just take these 2 days that are remaining to reflect on the things that you need to change. Get away from all the madness and negativity that you would like to prevent in the new year. Give yourself a little time and some break. Diving into the new year without doing this at least, without giving yourself a little breathing space would have a high possibility of disappointment for your intentions.

If you can afford it, take a break from work. Take a break from things that have been pulling you down. Get some rest, be by yourself for some time and only around good people that inspire a good change in you when you have to see people. Meditate on the positive things you want to take into the new year and separate them from the things you want to drop. There is no magic wand to be waved above your head or a force field that you would pass through when you cross over into the new year that would activate change. There is no gigantic automatic filter that would help you separate your choices and characters when you enter the new year. On the morning of the new year, you would wake up again realizing that it is just another day. So start today and give yourself a little time to meditate on the changes you want to make. This break is very important for you so take it if you can afford it. Change is a gradual process, not a speedy one. Take your time.
