Good intentions 2016 or for life?

The start of a New Year is something powerful, it represents a new attempt, a new beginning, a chance to do things differently. And yet I wonder why this power is not present on any Monday morning when we get up and hurried breathing before we start our work week. Then it would also be effective to do things differently. What do you think?

Anyway, I believe in the power of the new and the tranquility of 1 January when the city slowly awakens after a fantastic party with bubbles, dance and entertainment. Good intentions create a habit I've ever just taken, but my focus, motivation and gives the courage to pursue my dreams. Previously, I made a list of twelve goals. And this I read while I stopped twelve grapes in my mouth for the first twelve chimes of the new year. crazy, but certainly effective :), because I could see at the end of the year I had baked them. It was often that what I had intended.

This year I want my good intentions stabbing a new look, Therefore, I call them no intentions or goals but more adventures, because the effect of some experience is more satisfying than achieving a goal (my very personal opinion).

Since experiences not be linked to a year, or some form of time, I made a list of experiences for life. Those are the things I would like to see before I say goodbye to this world. One advantage is that I can adjust my list on any Monday morning and not have to wait until the power of the new year. The intention is that every day is a kind of "New Year" and I keep doing my best to BE-LIFE. to BE = mean from the English ARE actually: more HIS life.

But how can I HAVE to life?

It is not easy, but that is usually so with the things that really matter. Below you can see a few of the things that I resolved to go EXPERIENCE!!

1. With the sun getting up to enjoy in silence at the beginning of the day
