If 2017 Doesn't Result in a New You, then Take a Hard Look in the Mirror...Because the Only Person You Have to Blame is Yourself

In the matter of 2017, you said you were ready to change for the better.
Results from previous years show that to be a boldfaced lie.

Ok, you really want to do better because it's a new year?  

So does 400 of your fellow Facebook friends, as well as your Instagram and Twitter followers....multiple gyms around the world, financial advisors, and anyone hoping you will spend hundreds of dollars to make your 2017 wildest dreams come true.

We see all your posts about what you are definitely changing.  We see the excitement during the first  week of the year. We see the oscar-winning performance of you whining as you refuse to go back to the lifestyle you claim to have left behind right before midnight on Dec 31st.
 
Let's be honest, I see right through that.

You are simply stating how you would like to better yourself out of some false sense of obligation on Jan 1st?

You're thinking, "I'll just write this status to trick myself and others into believing that I'm working on myself all year. That way when Dec 31st rolls around, I can at least say I tried."

You have no intention of really changing, do you?
 
Do you really want to be happy in 2017?  (Rather than taking on the same things or people who pissed you off in 2016).
 
Do you really want to be healthier?
…or are you simply going to let the same unhealthy choices continue to infect your mind and body.

You are sooo done with negativity.
At least until the same toxic people and situatons show up at your door, right?
 
My book Unstoppable Joy is currently $10 with free shipping through my website at www.unstoppablejoybook.com.

I intentionally left my $10 sale for the New Year for those who are serious about change...or for those who would rather invest $10 versus hundreds trying to better themselves. Many of you spent more than that on Christmas presents (We saw your holiday photos with more gifts than you can count). Are you still happy after you opened them?

You are quick to spend 10 times that amount getting your hair and makeup done to highlight your physical appearance. You look good on the outside, but still empty on the inside. You spend much of that on video games, clothes and a trip to McDonalds. Yet after you down that McFlurry, you  are still unfulfilled. I saw people invest $100 in a get rich quick scheme with plans to retire on a yacht somewhere. Yeah, how'd that work out for you? Yet, it amazes me how you won’t spend $10 to invest in changing your entire life for the better?

The new motto for 2017 is:  Things will only change when you do.

So, if 2017 doesn’t result in a new you, then take a hard look in the mirror…because the only person to blame is yourself.
