ANYTHING
You can do anything, but not everything.—David Allen
I have sixteen boys and girls in my dance class this coming semester. Sixteen. It's an exhilarating number. That's two sets of the Virginia Reel. We can dance the Circassian Circle without accidentally kicking each other! We can finally dance the Willow Tree.
Certainly, it will be an exercise in accepting and employing my outside resources, whether they be my class assistant or the voice amplifier I received for Christmas. I can't even pretend I won't hurt myself {and become permanently hoarse} trying to do this on my own.
January is, as you may know, my favorite month, and I usually charge into the new year armed with resolutions. I love that, and I usually do a satisfying job with them; but, despite many projects—and even a big and exciting new project—coming up in 2016, I feel like this needs to be the year of me doing less.
It needs to be less because it certainly isn't going to be fewer!
So my new year's resolution is to seek and especially to accept help {because I do get a lot of help, I just don't like it}. I have only two others, and they are to eat and to start a stretching routine, food and relaxation being two things that ran light this past year.
So, this year I—
1.Accept help.
2.Eat.
3.Stretch.
I can do this, right?
