A Yearly Affair

Every new year is followed by new resolutions.

Last year, I achieved majority of mine except for, well, minor few bad habits that I'll have to nip in the bud. New year resolutions sounds cheesy and over-used excuse to feel like I'm improving on my life. But over the years, I realise changes start on that day. Real changes to our lives.

Would like to have a list here but I'm really bad with blogs. So here it goes.

10) Be even more grateful for the things I have.
I live in a country that's prosperous and full of opportunities. It's even touted as a financial hub of Asia after Hong Kong. Even more fortunately, born into a family with a hardworking father and housewife mother. What more can I ask for?

9) Keeping fit.
Would like to believe I'm getting a lot better nowadays. But more can be done. Run twice a week! Come on!

8) Have better money sense.
I get tempted like bees to honey or mice to grain.Many a times buying stuffs I don't even need. I need to start saving up and getting the things that really matter.

7) Stay healthy.
Wealth can't buy health. Enough said.

6) Repay my debts.
It's a pit hole I don't want to fall into. recently my debt ratio has been climbing. I'm not comfortable with it. And at this rate that I am going, it will only get worse. Buck Up!

5) Get my new car.
I want a ride I can call ours. Yes baby. No matter what I have I share with you. I believe we should own our car. No more hand me downs. In 2 cars time, we have to do it.

4) Start aiming for a target earning that I want.
I've been guilty of taking things as they come. And look where I got myself. Became the crowd of clappers. So many familiar faces went up on stage, ex-schoolmates, ex-nsfriends, ex-whatever. All I can do is watch enviously. It was a really hug slap on my face.

3) Give better services to my clients.
Time to show them having me as they servicing friend is the best that they can ask for!

2) Love my girlfriend more.
Unfortunately she hasn't been happy much in our nearly 2 years relationship. She's been through a lot. My temper, my sarcasm, my jealousy. I guess those are a lot to tank already. But she made it, she took them all in the face and loves me all the same. I love her! But I will love her even more.. Time to get that ****.

1) Be punctual.
Judging by the date of this post... well past the last day of Chinese New Year. Speaks volumes of how I have been procrastinating everything. I have to stop. If it doesn't I don't see myself getting better in any way.

And... here they are!
