Happy New Year!
Happy Makar
Sankranti!!
Happy Pongal!!!
To all!!!!
This is first post of
this year and I am already 15 days snailing late. Yet I am happy that even though it
didn't seem feasible, I made it here. Due to situation, work pressure and
health issues; I didn't think I could make it to here. But I did. And it was possible
because of your love and appreciation (& your sweet words too ;)).
First of all, a very
very happy new year to all my friends. I wish that this year brings you all
that you kept complaining about in its ancestor year. Well! Mine one started
with a kick off vacation and visit to my cousin's house. I enjoyed so much
there that finally due to tiredness and sudden climate change I got severe cold
and fever. But now I am fine and all set to boom.
In a quick peek, if I
say then last year was a tumultuous one for me, a year that I will remember
forever. It was a year where a cried the most, I laughed the most, I lost in
huge and again what I gained was no less too. It's the year which gave me a
name, a recognition that I always dreamed of. The journey was knee-jerking
nonetheless it was memorable. I met a lot of people, made new friends. I got to
know about different cultures and states. On the other hand I was dragged into
some unfair matters where my conscience didn't allow me to go with and I took
the stand. I had to pay the price but my peace was saved at the end of the day.
And in the end I came out as a sharp, bold, skilled and strong person, both
emotionally and intellectually. I am happy the way year 2014 ended.
Now before I ramble a
lot about this and that, let me spill the set of resolutions of this year.
Everyone has their share of flaws. And the person who knows how overcome those
hurdle is winner at the end. Because I believe you are the biggest competitor
of yourself and your yesterday is the biggest challenge for your today. So follow are the my set of
resolution. Let's have a peek:
1.Give More Of Myself
To Me: The first foremost for yourself is you and when you forget this thing you regret. People
started to ignore you, say unpleasant things before your face not caring how
you will feel about it. And at that time you start cursing yourself. But
instead of curse, start loving yourself. More than anyone’s love you need your
own love. So this year I hope to love more to myself. It may seem selfish, yet
I would not ignore myself. Little pampering, small rewards and bit more of
adrenaline rush is what I am planning for myself.
2.Help The Needed At
Least Once In A Month: Today the society has become so
self-centered that the future seems really destructive. The day is not far away
when your own blood will be against your life. No one has time to look about
the begging child at road side. No one has the time to stop by and call
ambulance when someone is dying. Why
me only? Others can do. This
has become the primary and common notion. But before preaching others I should
look at myself. Have I helped anyone? May be! But from now on this may be will
turn into a firm yes!I have. From now on I will help at least
once in a month to someone who is in need. Be it monetary help or emotional
support. I won't be struggling with those typical questions.
3.More Work, More Fun: Once I stepped into the IT industry I got to know what real responsibility
is. I understood how important it is to think before act and most importantly
act. When I started working on my first project, it was tough it had a strict
timeline. I was new and I had to give extra hours to learn and complete the
work. But when the project ended, the hard work was appreciated, I was on
heaven. I had the exact feeling of finding that blue lotus in deep valleys of
Himalaya. And slowly that appreciation and affection of teammates is turning me
towards to work. Now I am in no mood to stop. I will push myself to edge. I
will work more, try to improvise myself and give my best. And at the end I will
reward myself too. I will have fun. I will enjoy every moment. If life gives me
lemon, I will make lemonade. Because who know what's
there in tomorrow. Today is yours, live it to fullest.
4.Start Counting:It seems to be high time to start counting two biggest currencies of life.
Penny and Time. Time is money
and Money is time. We all know this. Yet since childhood I have never kept
track of either. I am a chronic procrastinator. And I have suffered a lot in
past, have been scolded profusely by mom, dejected by friends. That was okay.
But now the situation has changed and responsibility has increased by many
folds. Now I am on my own. I need to pay my own bills. My work-hours are being
counted. I have to balance my full-time job, my hobbies and personal life. So
before the matter slips out of my hand, I will try to keep a track of
both.
5.Steel The
Determination: There are a few projects and a
few ideas in mind from a long time. But I am unable to work on them. First
because of poor management of time. And secondly due to lack of determination.
But this year I want to finish them. At least at the end of year I will have
satisfaction that these projects are not piled up and ignored.
6.More Sorry,
More Thanks Yous': If someone asks what is your
weakness. My answer will be 'people management'. I try but I fail and I suffer.
I am the one missing from the group. I am the one friends complaint about a
lot. But from now I will try not to give them any chance to complaint. I will
be a good friend who they can count in social gatherings. For that I am
planning to schedule my time for friends and family. I will try to communicate
with them (whatsup doesn’t count in it) and at least once in a month.
7.Learn At Least One
New Language: This has been in my wish list from
along time. I want to widen my linguistic arena to a new milestone. I want to learn
one more language. And I will. Everyday I will take out only fifteen minutes
for it and hope at the end of this year I will master over that language.
8.Read Everyday! Write
Everyday!: Reading gives me a chance to escape from this confusing
way around and let my imagination to travel to anywhere anytime. With turning
pages, I cocoon myself with the imagination of the writer between the lines. It
gives me the solace. It doesn’t question my weird ways like others. Exactly the
same with writing. It allows me to open up, express what is clamped inside me.
And I want to make it a habit. Take some time everyday to write. Anything. Even
small notes matter. But write something everyday and read something everyday.
Well! That’s all. That’s
all for next 350 days. I hope that I will keep them because people near to me
say that I am a ‘crazy’ girl. And I know craze will drive me up the wall.
Don't forget to drop by and tell me how was your new year? What is new added in your list. I am with all my eager bunny ears.
