It's a brand new year for all of us and it is time to leave all the good and bad behind and start a new, bringing only with us the experiences and most importantly all the learning that 2013 brought us.
As a tradition, people around the globe write New Year's Resolutions. For the past years, I written a long list of things I want to change and do. None of them were fulfilled. So it took me awhile to share to you what my resolutions are since I sorted out things.
For 2014, I only have six resolutions which I plan to keep.
1. Live a healthy life.
I am around 180 to 190 pounds already, which is really bad already. I haven't climb mountains for quite sometime and didn't do any form of exercise. I was so engrossed with school and being stressed.
This year, I'm going to the healthier side. I have started reducing my food intake. I've reduced my rice consumption which is a little hard since I'm a rice eater. But I am taking the challenge. I am now making sure that I am eating breakfast. Then I'm now a protein, veggies, and fruits guy. It's a drastic change. And oh! I cut the sugar.
I'm also back to practicing KPop dances since dancing is one good form of exercise. KPop dances make me sweat a lot so I'm back in the arms of Kpop dances.
I'm also going to change my sleeping habits. I will try my best to really sleep early, getting eight hours of sleep. A decent sleep.
My goal is to reduce my weight to 120 pounds and be able to live healthily. And with that, Britney is telling me this.
2. Save and earn money.
I'm not really the type of person who saves money. But before, my money lasts longer. Now, in a day or two, all the money I get is gone. So now, I will try my best to be more money-wise.
In an exchanging gift session with my BFFs, I received a piggy bank which is something that I want to buy over Christmas break. The reason is obvious.
Also, since I have big plans for the year, including watching the 2ne1 World Tour concert in Manila this coming May 17, I am already scouring for online jobs. So if you can help me save up big time, tell me. *winks*
3. To strengthen relationship with God
Last year, I have been very busy. My weekends didn't become rest days for me but an extension of my weekdays. That is why, every Sunday, I can't be with mom to attend mass. Truth be told, I don't go to mass if I'm not with family. It is a family affair for me. If I wake up, I always say I'm tired, whether true or not.
This year, I plan to be regular in attending Sunday mass. I will try to read the Bible daily and ponder on God's words. I thought that I was busy with things, I forgot The One who made all things possible.
Last Sunday, I attended the mass but went out when the homily started. Blame it to bad stomach. So yeah, I missed one already. :(
4. Be more focused and organized
I think I have a problem of being focused. I like doing a lot of things but I don't actually get to attend to attend to them all because I always lose my focus. Part of the problem is with time management. And my habit to procrastinate.
This year, I made a promise to organize my timetable more and attend to it. If staying organized means buying a planner, I will. What I really need is a good looking planner that will constantly remind me of what I need to do.
On focus, we'll, internet is a big distraction. There is Facebook and YouTube. So I will moderately use Facebook once I post this. Social media is cutting a big chunk of my time, leaving me so unproductive. So yeah! Less social media, means more time to do things and focus on it. And the key to attend to all the things that I need to focus on is being organized.
5. Be kinder and nicer.
Everyone is a biatch. But being mean and sulky has its own time. This year, I would like to be nicer to people. I think that with everything that has happened, we need to be more understanding of one another.
But being nice doesn't mine being plastic. It doesn't mean tolerating what is crooked. I think that I also have to be more upfront but in a kinder way.
And being nice may also mean being harsh when it is demanded. But in the end, I should still be a kind and nice individual who gives joy, hope, and encouragement to people.
6. Learn a new language.
I plan to learn Korean this year. I'm starting with the Hangul, the Korean alphabet. I think it is a good stating point. I hope I could be fluent in Korean at the end of this year.
With a shortened list, I think it is easier for me to keep my resolutions.
How about you? What are your New Year's Resolutions?
