I’ve decided to use this year as the year where I’ll achieve all that I set my mind to. I’m not a very strong willed person to being with, yet I’m very stubborn when I finally decide on something. So, unlike the other years, I didn’t set any New Year’s resolution this year. I guess it’s partially because I’ve grown out of it, and also because I never follow the resolutions that I set. It’s not that I set unrealistic resolutions; it’s just that I forget about them midway in the year and focus on what’s happening in my life.
I did however decide that I’ll achieve the following things this year:
I did however decide that I’ll achieve the following things this year:
1. Lose weight-My goal is 10 kgs. I had put it on because of my horrible habit for binging on junk food, my lack of sleep and the weird hours I work.
2. Connect with my family again-this again was lost due to the hectic fast paced BPO lifestyle I chose with the absurd shift timings.
3. STOP spending so much! I’m a shopaholic!
4. Learn to play the violin-Sriram, I owe it to you to learn how to play it. You gifted me the violin almost a year ago, the least I can do is learn to play it!
5. Finish off all the pending work I have. Pick up certificates, pay fees etc. That’s another thing I’ve been procrastinating for a while now!
6 Focus on what I want to do with my life-I’m in limbo right now between what careers I want to chose, training, teaching, content writing, awaiting another option to consider.
7. Learn to drive a car and ride a bike.
8. Stop being so damn lazy!
9. Continue with project ‘Email’ for all 365.
10. Try to learn something new.
11. Keep in touch with my friends. Make it a point to meet up with them whenever possible.
12. Cook more often(ok, so this is more for the sake of wishing and less of wanting. I’ll be honest with myself, I doubt this will happen.)
13. Finish anything that I started.
14. Be more religious.
15. Learn Telugu.
16. Not get annoyed so quickly.
17. STUDY! I spend more time on the net, watching movies and reading books!
18. Contribute more towards society, be it by helping underprivileged kids, charity or towards the environment. I try anyway, but I know I can do so much more.
19. Take better care of my health and the way I look. I’m aging pretty badly!
20. Reduce my intake of spicy food. I’m sure at the rate I eat spices I’ll end up getting an ulcer!
So, that’s it for now. I'll add more when I feel the need. Some of these things seem unrealistic, but I know I can achieve them. I've just got to set my mind to it. Now that I’ve made a list and posted it on a place where I’ll be able to see it frequently, I’m sure I’ll be able to achieve these….or at least...I think I'm sure....Wish me luck!!
