Barbara Frum District Blog

Mark it down on your calendar folks, Thursday January 20, 2011 is New Year’s Resolution Day at the Barbara Frum Library.

What does this all mean? Here in Canada and in most western cultures, at the beginning of each year, we promise ourselves that we will change our habits for the betterment of our lives.  Some of us practice "cold turkey" while others gradually ease into a new life committment or get rid of an old one.  But even Oprah Winfrey, a popular television host, will be the first to tell you that most new year resolutions are broken in just a few weeks.  If you don’t believe me, read this article featured on the Oprah Magazine website called “Why is it so Damn Hard to Change Your Bad Habits.” And by the way, the library subscribes to the full e-version of Oprah Magazine, in case you like these kinds of articles.

So what is New Year’s Resolution Day at Barbara Frum all about and why does it still matter?  Well if you are serious about making some positive and meaningful changes in your life then why not be informed about the necessary steps to get there?  This upcoming new year we have two programs that will help you eliminate a bad habbit or develop a good one.  The first program helps you overcome clutter and the second gets you to think positively in order to set and achieve goals.
