Happy New Year 2013..
happy morning all..
yeaaahh..
It is the beginning of a
new year, which is the perfect time to set new goals for the coming months. As
I have bode farewell to another year and now greet a brand new one. Tradition
dictates that I look back on the important events of the past year, as I
organize my plan to move forward into the New Year.
I love new year’s..it’s
not because the busyness of the holidays is over, it’s not because of the new
year eve celebration - Christmas + My brother’s wedding + Both my birthday and
her birthday ( 3rd and 2nd January, but we did not
celebrate together this year emm..So sad.. ) and it’s not even because of my
study period was ends- All this only beginning. I love New Year’s because it
signifies the end of a chapter, one that probably I didn’t reach my highest
expectations yet holds the hopes, the dreams, and the possibilities of a whole
new year.
Hemmn.. No matter how
hard I try to plan and maintain a handle on, or control of my own lives (but
I’m not selfish okey!..), each year I had to faced with situations and
circumstances that are completely out of my control. When I looking back upon
the last couple of the years (including myself hihi..), I see disappointments
in relationships, I see missed opportunities in business, and I see a poor
decisions in how I reacted to situations and how people reacted to me.
But, in order for me to
move forward, to continue growing, to continue reaching for my higher
standards, I need to put aside what people have done to me, how people have
treated me, poor decisions I’ve made, and past disappointment..
I still remember this
story..Years ago, some men were on a leaky old ship in the middle of a rough
and stormy sea, one of them asked the captain; “are we safe?”. He said, “Well,
the boilers a weak and may explode at any moment. This ship is taking on water.
To be very honest with you, we may go up, or we may go down. But at any rate,
we are going on!”.. Through this story, once I’ve found the right way for me to
let go of the last year, it’s time to get ready for the new one (please do not
misinterpret this statement)..
Now I want to set back my
goals first. I want to write them down (but not write here hihi..)..What I want
to do in the New Year? What are my goals, plans and dreams?.. I want to take
and look at them properly. Because I don’t want to left anything out. I have to
adding a new things that really belong to others and what they want for my
life..
I’m listening music right
now..Ops!..Wait.. I just heard a question asked of rapper 50cent..50cent, who
is the one of the best-selling artists of the past year; “you have all of the
money that you could want; what makes you happy now?..And his answer; “to make
goals and achieve them”..Maybe 50cent is not come from the best of role models,
but that’s not bad advice for me..
Each year I try to have
some simple goals that I know ones that can be reached in a day or in a week,
some mid-range goals that I know that can be obtained in a month to a year and
I try to have some long-range goals that I know ones that may take a years or
longer time to reach. Whether my goals a spiritual, emotional, financial,
physical, or relational goals, they all have some common denominators. They
have to be clear because I know if I can’t understand to my own goal, I’ll
never reach it. They have to be reachable because if I can’t obtain my own
goal, what use to having them?..They also have to be communicated because I
have to stay accountable to others, and be encourage by others..Others?.. I
know who is..hihi.. And the last one; all of my goals have to be written down.
For the reason of this because I need to have my own goals constantly in my
mind in order to reach them..
There were many things
that I was able to accomplish this past year, some things that I have put off
for another year, and other things with which I have failed miserably. But, if
I dwell on the negative and hang onto the past too much, I will miss new
opportunities, new relationships, and new possibilities..
Now I want to look
forward for what I have not seen. I don’t want to regret another year gone by.
Last but not least, I really want to make this year one of where I leave the
past in the past..
*whishing for all…a
prosperous and healthy year ahead!..Peace J

chaotic..hihi..It’s only learning process…bye!
