I Gave Up...Then I Didn't

Earlier this morning I clicked the "delete blog" link in the blogger setting. Good bye, adios, sayonara for good. Fortunately, there is a "undelete blog" link as well.

I am going to be honest...I don't like failing and I don't like talking about my failures even more. Kind of ironic since I fail so much. But that is going to change. 2012 is not only going to be a year of less failures...but when I do, I am going to take on the chin and keep going.

First off...Happy New Year... 2011 has had it's ups and downs and frankly...I am glad it is over. I have a lot of plans for 2012 which span from losing weight to developing an award winning beer recipe. Hopefully, I can accomplish them all.

The holidays gave me a swift kick in my belly. I ate and ate and ate with the knowledge that in the new year I would "right the ship." That outlook on life has got to change. This thing has got to be constant.

  1. I'm glad to see you back here. Progress my friend. The only failure comes when you quit. Award winning beer, eh? now that's a goal.

  2. You and me both Al. Stay strong and keep fighting that fight. I don't like failure either but you have to let go of true mistakes in your past. What's done is done but tomorrow is a new day!

  3. I agree with my predecessor here - you cannot change the past - but you can learn from it.
    I've been away from my blog as well... but recently realized it really helps. Writing and reading other people's struggles, insights, motivational thoughts. So - give it a shot!
