新年の抱負

新年の抱負、まだ決めてないです。私は自分のどこかで何かを改善する努力を毎日していると思いますので、新年の抱負って…　いりません？というか、新年の勢いだけで抱負を決めたくないです。過去にタバコを止めるとか、お酒をやめるとか、そういう抱負を勢いで決めたことがあって、長く守れなかったこともあります。タバコを止めること、お酒をほぼ飲まないこと、いずれ叶いましたが、かかったのは勢いではなく努力でした。

でもやっぱり正月の季節なので、何か簡単なゴールとかを追いかけたいです。毎日一万のステップを歩くとか。たぶんそれでいきます。

I haven't decided on a New Year's resolution yet. I think that I make an effort every day to improve something about myself, so maybe I don't need a New Year's resolution? Or rather, I don't want to decide on one just from the momentum of the New Year. In the past, I've made resolutions like quitting smoking and alcohol by impulse, and I wasn't able to keep up with those resolutions. Eventually, I was able to fulfill them, but it wasn't out of momentum, rather it was through effort.

But it's the New Year after all, so I want to have a simple goal to pursue, like walking 10,000 steps a day. Maybe I'll go with that.
