Heya!
Well it occurred to me that a few months ago we all were celebrating a new year and we all had announced our resolutions for the year. What were your goals? Read a book each month? Learn a new cuisine? Diet? Be regular to Gym? Read professional stuff? Do some social work? or Join a recreational club?
And pretty much like every year, the resolutions disappeared into thin year even before the moon had completed its first revolution around the planet for the year. Pretty unfortunate that this vicious circle repeats itself as consistently as the years tick by!
Now, half year into the year, I have this guy poking me from inside that I am the same person I started the year with. Telling me that you failed to stick to those basic rules yet again. And he never spares an opportunity for that sarcasm. I hope someone else also relates to this?
Well there are a few months more and I think it is still fair to retrospect and reinforce the same commitments we made to ourselves during the dawn of this year. Why only now, six months into the year and why not sooner? Talking of sooner, why not everyday?
Like our closet, bookshelves and habits, thoughts also seem to drive themselves into a more random and disordered state if left unattended. What we should do is keep on reviewing our self ordained goals and missions so that we stay on the same track. More frequently, the better. We need to keep adding fuel to the enthusiasm and zest with which we make promises to ourselves and keep that fire burning all the time.
For now, I think it is the time to pull the socks up and press the reset button on our older self and start anew, we still have enough time to pick up on the lost goals and also make a point to paste that list in our heads-up display so that we do not waver from our little self-made promises.
Join me and lets celebrate the rest of the year. All the best and Happy Mid New Year! :-)
-Take care
