Almost everyone comes up with a New Year's resolution, whether it be something small and personal, or something big. New Year's resolutions are also sometimes things that person has been wanting to do or change for a while but has never gotten around to.
This is what I have a problem with. Why do people think that they must wait until a new year begins to change something that is bothering them? Why can't we just do what needs to be done when it needs to be done?
Everyone seems to be complaining about the year 2016. The year wasn't great for me either, but I don't think that complaining about it will really get anyone anywhere, now will it? And this happens almost every year. Come December, everyone is complaining saying that this year was the worst year ever and that they can't wait for the year to be over. If we would just change things when they need to be changed instead of waiting for a new year to begin, then our year wouldn't be so bad, would it? We would probably have a better outlook on the years passed if we would make the best of them while we are still in present. Why wait until the future to fix a problem?
Don't get me wrong, I think New Year's resolutions are great. I think it is great to do make positive changes at the beginning of a year because starting the year off right will generally help create a better year. I just think that we should all remember that it is never to late in the year to do something positive or make a change in our lives.
