New Year, Newish Me?

The new year is always a time to reflect on the past. Trying to make the new year one of perfect decision making. A fresh start. Turning over a new leaf. Over the last 39 years, I learned 2 things. Being Vietnamese, I get a practice new year on January 1, with a “real” lunar new year to come. Second, life isn’t perfect. Like golf, you have to adapt because you can’t restart your round every time you mess up.

So this new year, I will probably redo in February. But I won’t beat myself up for failing to be perfect. I’ll just make a concerted effort to learn from my mistakes and fail better each time. That’s progress. ATEN!
