Resolution Reevaluation

It's inventory week at Village Shoes, so we're all busy counting away. This week, our post will be short and sweet. See you next week!

One week into the New Year, and I haven't woken up early once.

Oops.

Whereas I don't want to call one of my New Years resolutions a bust already, it might be time.

It turns out, after a little self-evaluation, that both enjoying my late evenings and getting enough sleep are more important to me than forcing myself awake at 7 am.

It's particularly easy during the New Year to get caught up in pursuing the idea  of someone rather than the reality of yourself.

So, only a week in, I think I'll make a few edits to the list:

This year, I'd like to pursue positive improvements to my life while avoiding guilt and struggle.

So, I won't be waking up early (too much struggle), but I will start taking yoga courses (without feeling guilt about the cost).

Rather than getting caught up in the idea that you have to suffer to create change, embrace joy and happiness. Be gentler with yourself.

Make 2015 your best year ever.

Love,

Jessie and the Village Shoes team

Reluctantly Resolving Our Issues with Resolutions

January 1st is approaching, and with that, we pull out a piece of paper and a pen and write down our goals for the new year. I asked the Village Shoes girls to tell me what their new year’s resolutions are, and oddly enough, everyone said in 2012 they want to work out more. Um…am I the only one who considers running up and down the stairs at work all day working out? WE WORK OUT PLENTY!

Besides working out, here are our resolutions:

Halle:

1. Save money out of every paycheck

2. Read more books

Amanda:

1. Save money to travel

2. Eat healthier

Molly:

1. Stay true to Paleo Diet

2. Drink more water

Stacey:

1. Be more involved in the community

2. Walk to work more

Jen:

1. Get more sleep

2. Read more books for fun

The odds of me eating healthier are slim to none, but it looks good on paper, so who knows. Wish us luck with our 2012 resolutions. What are yours? Do you think you’re going to stick to them, or are you a lot like me? Regardless, I hope everyone got a nice smooch on the lips at midnight that started off 2012 the right way.
