My New Decade's Resolution..

Tweet

. Unlike many others, I don't make any New Year's Resolution .. I make New Decade's Resolution .. because let's face it, 12 months is not giving you enough time to resolve anything, especially when it comes to relationships and planning a business that will generate enough income to support long time goals .. 2017 is starting a new decade for me .. Unlike the previous decades of my life which were mostly chaotic, a lot of planning and concentration needed, a lot of hard work, a lot of dealings with corrupt people, I know that my next ten years will be a lot more fulfilling emotionally, financially and spiritually.. However, there will be challenges physically of course as my husband and I grow older.. The good thing though is that we are financially and emotionally prepared for those challenges that are to come no matter what they are.. I started making new decades resolutions when I was in my early 20s when new year's resolutions didn't work for me.. Ten years was giving myself enough time to sort out the things that don't work and don't make sense in my life .. Every decade brought me different challenges .. all difficult ones but I focused on what I wanted when I reach 60 and beyond. I have arrived at this stage of my life, exactly where I imagined me to be .. One thing very important to keep in mind when making resolutions is to take care of the needs first before the wants.. Once the needs are met, the wants actually just happen .. It takes care of itself.. but most of all, one must have self-discipline and self-value to reach goals .. Bess .. Photo is of the new seat cover (the green one) I made in January last year to give our family room some life ..It took me 45 hours to make covers for the 1 three seaters, 1 two seaters and 2 single seaters ..It was almost as time consuming as making a wedding dress ..
