The low Year is a time for relations Mentall at least most of us could compile
Armidle lists of and sons for the rear. The same old favorites recur year in
euront with monous regularity. We resohe to get up earlier each moming, cat
las find more time to play with the children, do a thousand and one jobs about the
howe nie to people we don't like drive carefully, and take the dog for a walk
every day. Past experience has taught us that certain accomplishments are beyond
attainment. If we remain de poored liars it is only because we have so often
ameriend the frustration that results from failure.
Most of us Nil in our efforts a self-improvement because our schemes are 100
ambitious and we never have time to carry them out. We also make the fundamental
error of announcing our resolutions to even body so that we look even more foolish
when we slip hack into our had old ways Aware of these pitfalls this year I attempted
to keep my resolutions to myself I limited myself to bio modest ambitions to do
physical exercise every moming and to read more every evening. An all-night party
on New Year's be provided me with a good excuse for not carrying out either of
the new solutions on the first day of the year, but on the second, I applied myself
sh to the task
The daily exercise lastel only eleven minutes and 1 proposed to do them early in the
morning before anyone had goy un The self-discipline required to drag myself out of
eleven minutes earlier than usual was considerable. NeverthelessI managed to
creep down into the living room for two days before anyone found me out. After
jumping about on the carpet and twisting the human frane into uncomfortable
positions I sat down at the breakfast table in an exhausted condition. It was this that
Letraved me. The next moming the whole family trooped in to watch the
performance. That was really unsettling but I fended off the taunts and jibes of the
family good humour ily and soon even body got used to the idea. However, my
enthusiasm waned the time I spent at exercises gradually diminished. Little by little
the eleven minutes fell to zen By January 10th I was back to where I had started
from. I argued that if I spent less time exhausting myself at exercises in the morning 1
would keep my mind fresh for reading when I got home from work. Resisting the
hypnotining effect of television. I sat in my room for a few evenings with my eyes
glued to a book. One night however, feeling cold and lonely, I went downstairs and
sat in front of the relevision pretending to read. That proved to be my undoing, for I
son got hack to the old had habit of dezing off" in front of the screen. I still haven't
given up my resolution to do more reading. In fact, I have just bought a book entitled
"How to Read a Thousand Word's a Minute. Perhaps it will solve my problem, but I
just haven't had time to read it.
