Keeping It Real In 2012

At this time of year, (way too) many of us contemplate, sign-up for and commit to various New Years resolutions.

It's our thing.  

That said, and in recognition of the yinyangslippityslopshishboombang nature of 2011, it's easy to see why we want to focus on positive resolutions. 

(As if anyone would sign up for negative ones, right?)

But before we go setting overachieving, unbelievably optimistic resolutions using words like extraordinary, phenomenal and other uber-super-duper adjectives - let's keep the expectations real, manageable and most of all - achievable.  

(Can I get an AMEN!?) 

That said, a word that that fits nicely given past issues, present dynamics and future uncertainties - is the word, drum roll please:

Good. 

(Yes, good.)

Good works.  It's believable. Realistic. Achievable.   

So here's to keeping it real, and keeping ...

Good Health
Good Habits
Good Friends
Good Business
Good Careers
Good Faith
Good Love
Good Living
Good Family
(Insert your own here)

Good is Great.

Happy New Year!
