Goodbye 2014! Hello 2015



The year that went by saw so much happening in my life!
Made new friends, lost some old ones! achieved some goals, failed at few! Learnt patience, practiced it rarely! Let go at times, held back more often!

Early 2014 also saw a lot of resolutions being made.
We make resolutions to stay fit, eat healthy, be calmer, nicer, work harder, build a career, change the world around us and so on.
Come January, the resolutions still remain, but become  a flitting thought rather than an action.
February brings a twinge of guilt, March gets you moving a bit.
Summer months seem to be a little better and you do a bit to work towards those resolutions which were made 4 months ago.
But work and life take over and the resolutions are once again forgotten  till December.
Leaving us defeated of a purpose we set for ourselves and see ourselves failing at simple things!

We do achieve something new every year, sometimes something big!
We are all in need of something/ to have or to do. We make promises to ourselves and others to get it done and spend 365 days searching for a point to start and berate ourselves when not done!

No more end of year resolutions! Why do we  have to wait  until 31st December to make changes to your lives.

Make your promises, set your goals, just don’t wait for the end of the year to do it!
Make them count, break them up! Plan for them when the thought arises. It can be June, it can be September.
Be realistic, be patient, stay focused.
Celebrate the 1 kg weight loss, why wait till you reduce 5 kgs!
Savor the journey, not just the destination. For sometimes- the road may take you on a completely unplanned trip!

This year, am starting a rememberlutions
It’s the happiness jar! Or box or trunk if you can fill it up!
I will not berate myself on all my failures, but celebrate success!
Anything I do which makes me happy, goes into the jar as a note or a memorabilia to look back upon towards the end of the year.

Celebrate life as you live it!
Whatever's worrying you, reach out and accept it. Embrace it -- no matter what and change it no matter what time of the year it may be. Don't wait for the year to end! Just do it!

Promise yourself only one thing – to try to change a little bit of yourself every day. And watch the world change around you!

Have a marvelous and fulfilling 2015!
