Resolutions are firm decisions to do or not to do something.
Resolutions are firm decisions to do or not to do something. How long have you told yourself that you need a new list for the new year?
Questions to ask
How often do you keep up?
Have you given yourself a tap on the back for completing the goal list?
Do you actually believe you can do it, or you say you're going to because your friend told you about his or her decision?
Or because your family has made it a tradition and you keep failing at achieving any?
Well... That's the problem with resolutions if you don't understand what it's all about.
What are Resolutions?
Some say it's superstitious, isn't that hilarious to hear?. Others say it's fake, it's all a lie, it doesn't exist, it doesn't work and more complains. Forgetting that Resolution is just a word that can be looked up in the dictionary for a better definition.
Everyone wants a breakthrough, a celebration after several defeat, success after numerous failure and so much more trying to be a better person in a better place. But have asked yourself why you need Resolutions?
Resolutions are firm decisions to do or not to nothing. Resolutions are your decisions you make to shape you to achieve your said goals you've written on a sheet of paper hidden in your diary. No one can achieve for you except You. Few Families have made it a tradition to help groom their children in giving their future a shape and helping them understand their purpose.
Before you agree on these decisions, have you asked yourself this question, "what have I given up to become what I am?". No matter how horrible or fun 2017 must have been, that current or past mistakes means that you have put in some efforts and it is commendable. You learn more and move forward in achieving greatness.
This the season to be strong, to grow without hesitation, to stretch your minds to a greater comprehension of understanding the importance of your existence. You should be the judge of how far you have come in realizing the fulfillment of your resolutions.
All the best in 2018 as you move forward carrying your colorful decorations.
