Keep going, you are getting there.

Happy New Year! I hope this year, that you aspire to make misjudgments—lots of them. When you are aspiring to make misjudgments, then you are trying new things, doing new things, challenging yourself, learning, living and loving. You are accomplishing things with perseverance, especially when it comes to those New Years resolutions. Perseverance is the act of being utterly persistent and refusing to stop despite interruptions, disappointments, problems.
