With that occasion comes a host of resolutions, ideas and hopes for the future. (I am sure that you have a honed set of them by this point.) The beginning of a new year invariably offers the possibility of change – and future opportunities of fulfillment and success.
This year, why not commit to a single resolution. Not something micro-specific and unattainable – one resolution that might help serve as a broader “guide” going forward. A framework, so to speak, that will help with spur of the moment decisions and situations.
My personal choice this year – a commitment to evolve.
Change is one of the few constructs that we can all depend upon in the workplace – it is always present – as it should be. We can either fear that change looms over us, or we can be poised to face it and move forward. This year, I’ll attempt to evolve in a manner that allows me to embrace change and absorb all of the knowledge, challenge & conflict that will come my way.
This evolution may not always be elegant or appear effortless – but I will try my best to absorb, adjust and move along confidently.
What will be your single guiding resolution? I would love to know.
Happy New Year to you and yours.


Well said Marla. I hate SMART New Years resolutions because if you don’t achieve them, you somehow lost.
The one single evolutionary Resolution would be to Absorb whatever I learn.
Resolutions can often make us feel that we have failed. Changing your “outlook” somehow is a much better bet. Thanks so much for your thoughtful comments!
