New Year, Inspiration To Change
At the start of every new year, people are inspired to make resolutions and change. I like to think that this should be a year long/life long pursuit instead of “Resolve in January, to be forgotten in February” pursuit. Here is a video I made to highlight some of my favorite quotes about changing oneself.

The hardest thing I did last year was to start making a career change. I realized how frustrated and uninspired I was in my job and decided to make a move. One year later, I am definitely happier, have learned so much about myself and about internet marketing.
It hasn’t been easy. But the easy way isn’t always the best way!
I have always liked a challenge. Traveling this path has given me more than my fair share of challenges but I know that I am on the right track.
Why do so many people have a hard time changing? Especially when they could be much happier?
A lot has to with being afraid. Afraid of what might happen. Afraid of the unknown. Afraid of what others might say. Afraid of failing.
But shouldn’t we be more afraid of NOT changing? Of not becoming better, happier, more satisfied with ourselves?
This was my motivation. I wanted to be happy and challenged.
We only have this one life to live. Being the best you can be, happy and fulfilled should be a priority. That is what I finally realized. Changing my life was easier than being miserable.
Whatever it is that makes you happy and the best version of yourself, shouldn’t be a resolution at the start of the new year, but a resolve ALL year.
