2011 is almost gone and 2012 is about to take its place in about less than twenty-four hours. I hope 2012 will be a better year than 2011. The current year had its good moments, but it could have been a better year though.
I have many thoughts about 2012 in which I want it to be a good year, and the only way it can be a good year-is that I have to make it happen myself. I have a feeling that a lot is going to happen in the upcoming year and I hope it is good. There are several things that I have been thinking about, some of them are resolutions but some are considerations:
I have many thoughts about 2012 in which I want it to be a good year, and the only way it can be a good year-is that I have to make it happen myself. I have a feeling that a lot is going to happen in the upcoming year and I hope it is good. There are several things that I have been thinking about, some of them are resolutions but some are considerations:
- Not multitask as much and take one day at a time. Lately I have been doing a lot of multitasking due to the holidays and nearly exhausting myself. Even tonight I have been multitasking: doing two loads of laundry, surfing the net, playing an online game, and even chatting online with a family member. I need to only concentrate on one thing and remind myself that Rome was not built in a day.
- Like multitasking, I should not overload my mind on so many things, and only concentrate on the most important thoughts.
- Sometimes I just got to take a deep breath and get my thoughts together, and not let unpleasant minutiae get to me. As my late father said: "consider the source," which was the best advice he ever gave.
- I should always think positive no matter what.
- If I want it to be a good day, it is up to me to make it a good day.
- I should always make time for exercise, even if I am not in the mood, I need to make the time.
- I need get at least 8 hours of sleep, drink plenty of water, just only drink two carbonated beverages a day, and remember to practice portion control.
- In order to save more money, I should only buy the things I need, and make more of an effort to save my pocket change. I also need to cut out cable television, which I hardly watch anymore.
- I have accumulated so much stuff (i.e. old clothes, toys, kitsch items) that I really don't need anymore. All this stuff is taking up a lot of space in my apartment and I seriously need to downsize. I have already made some progress on this: during the past two months I have donated old books from college, old history and craft magazines, and some old toys to the local thrift shop.
- No matter what, I should always consider this mantra:
I wish everyone a wonderful and awesome 2012! Remember it is up to you make it a great year! : )
