January 11, 2013 by admin
Perserverence does not mean one won't fall; it simply means that you will pick yourself up and try again! Perseverance doesn’t mean we don’t fall down, make mistakes or have missteps.

Maybe it’s because making resolutions just after the holidays is particularly bad timing, what with our tendencies to overindulge, overspend, and generally let the chips fall where they may. Or maybe it’s because we are completely unrealistic or entirely too vague with our resolutions. The good … [Read more...]
