2013, what do you have to offer me? As many of us do, I’ve often felt compelled to make goals, write resolutions, and generally take the opportunity for change at the beginning of the new year. Some I’ve managed to keep (not chewing my nails, age 10). Some I’ve managed to accomplish (open a Roth IRA, age 25). But others have definitely remained outside of my grasp (first draft of my novel, you elusive thing you).
This year I’ve decided to take a different tack. No goals, no resolutions, just a general philosophy to make the best of “it,” whatever “it” is. Vague enough for you? In order to keep myself supercharged and focused I’ve devised a playlist for victory, because this year I plan on coming out on top.
