Day 6939: Thu, 3 January 2008


3

The third day of the year is the most dangerous.

January 1st is kind of a day off. You relax and prepare for tomorrow, the “big” day. You still have a lot a food at home, and you don’t want to throw it away, just because you decided to start a diet, right? And you feel strong, because you don’t have to deliver yet, you just know you will reach your goals.

January 2nd is easy, because you’re full of energy, you want to start into the year well. So no problem there.

Then January 3rd comes along, and that sucker is just a regular day from a total of 365, well 366 this year. That’s the day it gets more difficult to keep your promises. You don’t want to drink alcohol for a month? On January 3rd you’ll fail. Because your friends might ask you to go out, and you’ll say, what the heck, I can still start tomorrow, I guess today doesn’t really count…

Bang! Over - - -

So today I feature the 3, and you’ll have a warning: stick to it and keep your promises! Do you see the shadow on top? Doom!

:-)

I did fine today. So far… I don’t have any plans for tonight yet.

Talk to you later.
