A makeover story
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
One of the best things about being single is that you have so much time to reflect upon yourself. I mean, really. You can go have a great night out and then come home to only pay attention to…yourself. (There are exceptions, of course, for those of us with pets and kids, but you get the idea.) You have more time now than you ever will again to analyze and improve your own being.
Sometimes I forget about this aspect of my singleness. And honestly, it’s something I should put to use, because any “improvements” that I make now will also benefit me later in life.
I’ve decided that I’m making over my exercise routine (or lack thereof). I’m not out of shape, but I definitely want to be testing my body every day, whether it’s through jogging or the elliptical machine or a fun dance class. Plus, let’s be honest, it’s not gonna hurt my dating options to be up in the gym!
If you decided today to make over one aspect of yourself, what would it be? It doesn’t have to be about outward appearances. Your makeover could target how you handle your finances, how you treat your family, or how much time you spend with a significant other or children. It could be an attitude adjustment. You could resolve to smile at five more coworkers each day. Whatever you want!
And just remember, your blog family may hold you accountable to whatever you post! So this endeavor is not for the faint of heart! What could you change about yourself?
