3 Bad Habits I’m Going to Kick in 2022

Every year we make these resolutions, call them unmeasurable, or poorly setup, or any other combination of reasons they all tend to fail. I think they fail because we are trying to add personal traits on top of pre-existing ones that haven’t been paid attention to. So this year, instead of adding tasks and to do’s, I am one by one fixing the things I already have.

Self Expression

As much as I do dress up, which I’ve always done, I cannot help but still have a pit in my stomach when I really wear things that make me feel like myself. I don’t know what it is, but I sure wish me and all the girls wearing cute outfits on Tik Tok would have gone to the same high school. So as lame as it may sound to everyone here, one of my largest goals this year is to not only wear things that allow me to disappear. So here’s to wearing elaborate ensembles to walmart and beyond.

Confrontation

UGHHHHHHH. To tell you I hate this one is such a massive understatement. I have always dreaded any form of conflict, I am not good at handling it and I avoid it at all costs. Now being in the world of business, it is something I must improve on in order to be a good business owner and employer. Does that mean that I won’t lose complete feeling in my body and shake uncontrollably next time I think I’ve made someone upset, no most likely not. But I can work on simply standing my ground and accepting the situation.

Mental Health

I realize there is only so far I can go before I must take somewhat control of the efforts put into my mental health. As simple as being more proactive so that nothing is hanging above my head causing or aiding to anxiety. A lot of this topic goes hand in hand with the ones listed above. When I dress and feel like myself, my depression gets lessened greatly same as when I have healthy deep conversations. I know I need to be more social, I need to be sure I feel heard, and I need to not make everything that stands out about me go away immediately if it doesn’t jive with every person on earth. There is a lot I need to do, but the majority of it is in my hands now, plus God is paving it all with purpose so it’s all good.

So here’s my “resolutions” I won’t be running any marathons, but I will do the small things every day to make sure 2023 Annalisa can make new improvements.

Thanks for hanging out
