A day to reflect on the year just past and make plans for the year ahead.  Making resolutions and promises to yourself to do better things for your well-being, the well-being of others and the planet.

We might want to write down promises we have made and put them in a place we can look at them every day to enjoy the success of the previous day or to remind yourself of the goals you have set.  Maybe you will have very specific goals or time goals, so you can daily check your progress or lack thereof.  Remember to write down your progress in a special diary that you keep for this purpose only.

If you start to drift back into your old habitual ways for a day, don’t be upset with yourself. Just start again and again if necessary, remembering even a little progress will give you a sense of accomplishment. Help others on their path and the promises they made to themselves, give them encouragement. Maybe you have a common goal, so make a friendly competition out of it.  If you appear to be doing better than your friend, never boast.  If you are doing better, just keep giving encouragement to the other.

One promise at Proceeding Until Apprehended is to finish all 64 hexagrams of the I Ching this year so you can have instant guidance always at your fingertips. The I Ching will give you answers to your questions about all things pertaining to your life. We will give you some words of guidance each day this year to help you and ourselves stay on the paths we have chosen.   

 Quote: Certain things catch your eye but pursue only those that capture the heart. – Ancient Indian Proverb
