There's a plethora of time-wasters we engage in on a daily basis that, when eliminated, can make us feel like we've gained the super power of stopping time.
I'm not saying that we shouldn't make our resolutions. It makes a difference when we take the simple step of writing out our goals--but start with today.
But don't just list these on your resume if they're not true for you. Work on growing in these areas. If they are true for you, be prepared to discuss.
"I just want to drop about ten pounds before the wedding."
"My class reunion is coming up next year and I need to be more in shape before then."
"My ex-girlfriend invited me for a drink next Friday, I need to get my crap together before then...
Even the smallest changes you make toward whatever goal you're seeking to accomplish--if you maintain those consistently--you'll be amazed at what you can do.
I've found that the mornings when I rise early enough to have a bit of quiet time before the mad rush of the day begins, the entire day flows more smoothly.
