Quote of the Day: Benjamin Franklin

January 1st, 2012

Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each new year find you a better man.

~Benjamin Franklin


New Years Resolutions do not get made here, but I do try to focus on making myself better each and every year. It’s not something I sit down and decide to do when the new year arrives, but something I think about all year long. Generally, I notice things throughout the year and try to be proactive about changing them. I think so many people fall off the resolution bandwagon because they wait till New Year’s to make big changes instead of making small adjustments all year long.

Do you make resolutions? What are some of yours this year?
