Not your countdown

With a new year coming in at fast approach, it is easy to start the “countdown” as it were.

I suggest you view it more of a build up though.

In reality 2024 isn’t going to be this completely new thing.

Like countries, the scenery does not simply switch as you cross a made up border that we as humans decided on.

The trees stay the same, the animals don’t listen to our borders, they have their own.

So, in the same respect, a new year is not necessarily a new beginning as much as we would like to see it as.

I don’t have anything bad to say about resolutions though, go at ‘em if you want.

But stop thinking like you’re running out of time right now. That the clock is counting down as if it’s Time Square on December 31st.

These 60-ish days remaining of our current year are an opportunity to build up on the things you want in life, the habits you keep saving for next Monday or next year.
