Title: My New Years Resolutions
Post by: samthewiss on December 31, 2013, 07:37:30 AM
My New Year Resolution:

1. I resolve not to view my divorce as a failure but to see it as a courageous act. I chose to go into the unknown future as opposed to living with pain that i became accustomed to.

2. I resolve to forgive my ex, she knows not what she does.

3. I resolve to look deep inside myself and work on refining my character.

4. I resolve to focus on my emotions to loving, caring for my kids, my supportive family and friends.

5. Lastly, I resolve to truly believe that god (higher power as you see it) has a plan for us all. What happened was meant to... .The best is yet to come.

Please add to the list.


Please add to my list.

Hi Samthewiss

How are you doing today?

About your resolution list:

I miss compassion for yourself. Honestly I would put it instead of number 2. To avoid an overload. 

2. I resolve to practice self-compassion every day. What I mean is just accept your own feelings and thoughts. Be nice with your self. No negative self talk.

Forgiving your ex will follow if you are better and detached.

my 2 cents.

I wish you all the best for the next year.

I'm resolving to stop being so nice to my ex.

I need to stop pretending our entire relationship wasn't a disaster and start treating her like the mistake she was. It's a huge success to be away from her, so I need to rejoice in it and stop pining away for something that wasn't even pleasant to begin with.
