I am blogging everyday (or nearly everyday) on The Daily Stoic.

This year I’m going to start work on not allowing my impulses drive my decisions. I have noticed that when I give in to my impulses I get disappointed with myself and that puts me in a worse state of mind. I’m trying to set boundaries. There are things that I want to do. Chores that need to get done. I ignore them because of my impulses. That’s something I want to change. I will get in these states for a period of time and then revert back to allowing my impulses to drive me.
