Bible Verses and Other Quotes for the New Year
Timeout.com

With every new year comes the time to make New Year's resolutions where we look at ourselves and focus on what we could do differently or what we could spend more time focusing on in the New Year. We often hear the phrase "New Year, New Me" referring to these changes that we would like to make. In all reality, the majority of us who set out to do things differently in this new year end up falling off track or putting our time and energy into other things, forgetting what our goals were. We also often lose motivation. Here are some Bible verses and other quotes to keep in mind while trying to achieve your New Year's resolutions:

1. Isaiah 43:18-19

2. Job 8:7

3. Ezekiel 36:26

4. Jeremiah 29:11

5. Isaiah 40:31

6. Psalm 51:10

7. "Everything you've ever wanted is on the other side of fear." - George Addair

8. "Your life only gets better when you get better." - Brian Tracy

9. "Success does not consist in never making mistakes but in never making the same one a second time." - George Bernard Shaw

10. "For last year's words belong to last year's language. And next year's words await another voice. And to make an end is to make a beginning." - T.S. Eliot

11. "With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts." - Eleanor Roosevelt

12. "Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible in your approach." - Tony Robins

13. "If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude." - Maya Angelou

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
