New Years Resolutions: Mine is to....

....go fuck yourself. Well, not really. But that's my take on New Years Resolutions. That it's a pile of fucking shit, you might as well eat that pile of shit and proceed by fucking yourself in however manner that suits you. Firstly, I might be swearing a lot but that's just me and I'm by no means angry (never am). So, why do I think this way about New Years Resolutions? Well, they fail. I haven't done the research but I've seen enough to say they just simply fail. I can attest this also based on my personal experience, because I too, have made them in the past. I do understand it's tradition. I understand how nice it is to set a fresh new goal to start a new year and goals are important especially to those who strive for continuous improvement. But you are just kidding yourself with New Years Resolutions...

If you really have identified some part of your life that needs a change, to reform fucked up habits, personal goals and whatnot, you wouldn't wait and let time, a particular day or period of the year, to dictate this commitment. What do I think? New Years Resolutions are for lazy fucks. For those who have no self respect. Egotistical reasons, seeking acknowledgement from everything external, links to seeking acknowledgement for what you own. What you wear. How you smell. How much fucking salary you make in a year. Which part of suburb you live in. "Oh I'm going to stop gambling next year as part of my New Years Resolution. Aren't I awesome?!?!". "I'm going to stop selling my arse to creepy men on the streets and get a job so I can provide my crack addiction as part of my New Years Resolution. Aren't I awesome?!?!". Don't kid yourself. If you really wanted to make change, you'd do it "NOW" (key word peoples). I'm going to sound like a tree-hugging hippy by saying this but time is only an illusion. Telling yourself you want certain things in the future is like living in fantasy land (and don't even get me started on people who JUST LOVE clinging to the past, it's like self imprisonment). It's something that may or may not eventuate. How about taking control? How about really knowing yourself, identifying improvement, and doing something from within, not externally (acknowledgement and approval), doing things for you, for yourself and nobody else. How about diverting that energy from fantasizing and putting that into good use instead by taking action "NOW" (there it goes again....) Quit being a fucking fake for once. And if respect is something you seek (you shouldn't really...) then walking the walk is the way to go. Because you aren't going to gain anybody's respect by saying fantasies when a short period later just fall on your arse again selling blow jobs at the street for your crack addiction. Have some some self worth. If you had an ounce of self respect, you'd be taking this by the testicles and squeezing it with all your might with the utmost of determination that you really want it and what you are prepared to do to make it happen. Now is GO, not tomorrow, not next week or next year. Fucking now. The light has always been green, there's nothing stopping you, never has been.
