It’s that time of year again, new years resolution time. Generally speaking I’m not a fan of new years resolutions mainly because I don’t think that any point in time is anymore important than any other when it comes to making decisions about your life, people shouldn’t need an arbitrary point in time to change their lives, if they need to do it then they should when they realise they need to.

Now rather ironically I’m going to make a kind of resolution. I actually decided this around Christmas when I was sat with my wife watching our kids play with their Christmas gifts. I should be spending more time concentrating on the things I have and a little less time worrying about the things I don’t have. This isn’t to say I’m giving up on goals and dreams but I’m going to try to stop them consuming me and dragging me away from what I have. I never want to be one of those people who say “You never know what you have till it’s gone”.
