On keeping to our
resolutions.....
“
With the start of the new year, it is
time again for resolutions. How many of
us genuinely keep our resolutions?
For
me, it is either ever or never. Some say
that they will do it tomorrow. But that tomorrow may never come.
Today
we can’t trust our bodies. There is a
discipline for everything, but no discipline for death.
Hold
that determined thought - that i have to do it; do or die. Whatever you have to do it today, do it
now. It is now or never.
If
you fail, start again. Don’t look at
failure as a permanent defeat, but consider it as a pause.
A
pause is part of the journey of life which helps us to gather energy and move
on.
Determination
is being focused, not scattered; never allowing laziness or excuses to enter. Ask
yourself: “ Why am I here? What do I want out of life?
Tell
yourself: “ I want to lead a purposeful
life and I am prepared to face difficulties.”
It
is good not to make too many pledges. You will not remember them, much less put them
into practice. Just one or two will do
and stick to them. Never compromise your
discipline because of someone.
Determination
does not bring success instantly but with patience and faith, it will happen.
To
promise means to bring benefit to the self and others. With determination, there is no
termination. It is translating challenges
into opportunities.
A
Very Happy and Blesses New Year to all my friends “.
Yes
I remembered, year in and year out I made resolutions, countless of them. I
would jot them in my diary but actually it was something that I
could hardly keep. Easier said than done eh............
