I've seen amazing fat-melting pills, ab-scrunchers, incredible gym membership deals guaranteeing all the ice cream I want, and feel-good recommendations telling me to send smileyface texts to people in my network.
Can I get real with you on this? Really real?
The World Is In A Mess
The world is messed up. And it ain't getting any better.We don't need a new you. We need a new society.
The way I see it, the world needs women with grit. With backbone. With the ability to take decisions and take action.
Miraculously and to my total amazement, I get to talk to women like this all day, every day.
Women like you.
Make 2012 The Foundation Year
How about this year instead of thinking about losing weight, or meeting up with your old school friends for drinks more often, or joining a gym, you decide to do something that will just start to fix what's all screwed up in the world.- Volunteer for a human rights organisation.
- Get involved with the young people in your community.
- Share what you know about life with your daughters and nieces.
- Run for political office (please!)
Whatever cause you feel strongly about, make 2012 the year you get in there and start really ensuring a solid foundation is being laid for a better future.
What's cool about this resolution is I guarantee you it won't involve eating more calories, sitting on your sofa watching even more X Factor, or busy-working yourself with housework.
What do you say? Are you with me on this?
Get Started. Now.
Traditionally, we'd say its time to roll our sleeves up.I think it's more appropriate to say it's time to put our hair up and let's get to work.
Share what you're going to do this year in the comments and inspire others to think bigger!

I completely agree with you on this. For many years I have been volunteering with Riding for the Disabled, we do a huge amount of good and incidently feel great ourselves doing it. In Buddhism, every good deed and thought helps to make the world a better place and we can all contribute in our own way.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment! I used to work with young people in care years ago, so I decided I would volunteer this year to work with young mothers. I've found my charity ... we'll see what work they put me to!
