January 1 has no magic.

There is a cycle to everything — years, seasons, life, diets and exercise routines.  

The trick is to recognize where you are in your own personal cycle and adapt accordingly. Maybe January 1 is perfect timing to start a good habit, or maybe not.

Marriage counsellors who specialize in domestic violence say there is a cycle of abuse that exists in the abusive relationship. I say every marriage, and even every relationship has it’s own cycle. Sometimes, you just don’t want to hang out with your best friend… and some days you love your spouse more than other days.  

Everything has a cycle. Make the most of your productive times and rest when you are in a funk… Start the new habit when you are inspired to do so, and break the bad habit when you are ready to let it go.
