Maybe you, too?Hi friends, I'm sure you know what January 15th is... right?
IT'S NATIONAL "I'VE GIVEN UP ON MY NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS" DAY! π
Yep, that's right. Most of us make grand plans and resolutions at this time of year, only to abandon them in a few weeks. Can you remember any of yours for this year? If so, you're in the minority.
Here's a trophy, though...you deserve it! π I stopped the habit of New Year's Resolutions several years agoThis week, quite predictably, I might add, all I've been seeing on YouTube are videos with titles such as:
OK, I get that others aren't as jaded as I might be about this.
I'm 67. Get off my lawn! π₯Έ Still, I can't recall ever seeing any YouTuber producing a video titled, "Yeah, I Bew It this Year," or "Wow, My Year Sucked," or "F*ck This Sh*t - None of My Plans Worked Out." Would that level of honesty be refreshing? This year, I'm going with a daily practiceThey aren't rituals or habits I need to track, but suggested activities that I enjoy sprinkled throughout the day to give some balance to my business work. Thus far, my daily practice looks like this: 06:00 - 08:00
09:00 - 10:00
10:00 - 11:30
12:00 - 13:00

It's nothing fancy, but it ticks the boxesI live a relatively quiet life. I'm single and most likely will remain so. My heart is finally healing from my last relationship that ended two years ago. I'm tired of rejection and have settled into a solitary lifestyle I like, even if I don't 100 percent love it yet. I have two Buddhist names β Dokuzan (from the Soto Zen tradition), meaning solitary, independent mountain, and Jigme (from the Tibetan tradition), meaning fearless. Both are fitting and describe elements of my personality. Sometimes, I believe I was always meant to be alone because of my introversion and solitary ways. I enjoy solitude, but a part of me misses caring for a significant other in a way that brings meaning to both parties. As a practicing Buddhist, I'm no stranger to practices, but they must serve a purpose. Otherwise, they become meaningless rituals, and I can't abide by them. This is the closest I'll get to a resolution this year...ππΌππΌππΌ I will be devoting time and energy to my YouTube channel.β There isn't much there yet, but stay tuned, and maybe if you're feeling generous, even subscribe.
