New year new change

The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.
Proverbs 18:15

The new year is upon us and it is a time of reflection for many. So we set goals for ourselves. Already the promise to give up cola or chocolate or to lose 2 stones. We make the same promises to ourselves we made the year before hoping that this year will be the year our will power kicks in. Maybe it's time for a change.

Maybe as we look forward to this year it's time to move beyond superficial changes and focus on something deeper. Our hearts and ears bring so much into our lives. Maybe it's time to look at what we are focusing our hearts on and asking is this really the best use of our time. Is what we are listening to adding knowledge or is it depleting the soul. Maybe if we change our thinking, our focus, our energy we would achieve our goals.
