My Happiness Project - The First Step
While working through Gretchen’s Book, The Happiness Project, she mentions that one of the key things that kept her on track were what se referred to as the “Twelve Commandments”. While I was working through her commandments I realised that I would need a few of my own. These are the things that I will be embracing that will, I hope, assist me in me committing to my resolutions. These would form the basis of my thinking and guid me and remind me of what I had set out to achieve. So, you may ask, what has changed? You have made resolutions before and I don’t even need any fingers to count how many you have kept! And how right you would be. However I have seen that I have changed at least one aspect of my life significantly, and that is to get up early in the morning before sunrise. And this I have managed now for just on two years. Do I manage to do it everyday? No there are days when I do oversleep, however these are few and far between and instead of giving up I persist.
