Screw the “New Year New Me” Bumph

The New Year is approaching. Que the endless New Year New Me bumph. 

DONT GET SUCKED INTO IT!!

Don’t get me wrong I am all for setting goals, moving forwards and bettering yourself but you don’t need to become a new you in order to do that!

Even if you aren’t happy with where you are right now, you can use that to move towards who you want to be rather than think about starting from scratch and changing yourself completely.

Your past helps mould you into your future self. Don’t discredit where you have been and what you have been through; USE IT! So when you finally become the You YOU want to be, you can look back and feel proud of your journey. You already possess greatness. You just have to believe in yourself enough to let it come out.

Don’t strive for a NEW YOU; work toward a HAPPIER YOU, a STRONGER YOU, a HEALTHIER YOU. 

So, how can we make it through the endless noise trying to make us believe we need to drink ‘magic’ teas and take 2 heart racing pills a day, whilst getting to the gym ten times a week, nailing your career goals by March and bagging the relationship of all relationships in order to nail this next year?

Simply say…

SCREW YOU!

I AM NOT GOING TO BUY INTO THE SAME BULLSHIT I BUY INTO EVERY YEAR.

THERE IS NO MAGIC PILL, DRINK, CURE OR ACTIVITY THAT WILL GET ME TO WHERE I WANT TO BE.

INSTEAD OF OPTING FOR A NEW ME; I WILL WORK ON THE ME THAT I AM.

I WILL BE CONSISTENT. DEDICATED. DETERMINED. PASSIONATE.

I WILL LEARN FROM CREDIBLE SOURCES AND ALLOW MYSELF TO GROW THROUGH MY MISTAKES.

I AM FLAWED BUT I AM BEAUTIFUL.

I AM PERFECT THROUGH MY IMPERFECTIONS.

I AM ONE OF A KIND AND NO ONE CAN DO ME BETTER THAN ME.

SO KEEP YOUR BUMPH.

I’VE GOT THIS. 

BECAUSE I AM ME AND I AM ENOUGH.

New Year does not equal a New You. Every moment you have the opportunity to work towards a you you’re proud of being, a you you’re happy to spend your time with. Don’t spend your money or waste your time on the quick fixes being promised to solve all your problems. Instead;

• set achievable goals
• create a manageable plan
• focus on you
• be committed and consistent
• be patient
• don’t give up

You can do this. You can be happy. You can be YOU!
