It's been almost a year since I posted. I thought I would post my goals for 2011, and hopefully, this year I will do a better job at posting. I have been thinking a lot about a book I read many years ago, and as a result, these are my New Year's resolutions:
Agreement 1
Be impeccable with your word - Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.
Agreement 2
Don’t take anything personally - Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering.
Agreement 3
Don’t make assumptions - Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.
Agreement 4
Always do your best - Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.
I believe if we could make these a part of our daily lives, we will be much happier, live with more peace, and live as our Heavenly Father would want us to. I ask my family to help me with these goals and remind me if they see me not keeping these agreements. (Oh, and I promise I won't get mad if you say, "Mom, remember the agreements!!) ha ha.
