Resolution Revolution
New year’s resolution makes me wonder if any person that I
know, just any one, has put in an effort to fulfill and successfully accomplish
the promise that a person makes at the start of the year or before the turn of
the year. Each year, everyone that I am
close to, makes some promising determination to make good changes, be it to
their lifestyle, their career or just personal life. But chances, or at least in my case, making a
new year resolution does not work.
In one year, I told myself to quite some old habit, only to
know that at the end of the year, nothing was changed. In the following year, I forgot about the
resolution that I made and failed. I preceded
on to make a new one which is to have a baby.
Nothing happened. After that
year, I made a stronger determination to do something really difference –
something that was very much within my control unlike pregnancy. It was to learn Spanish language to prepare
myself to visit latin America in the following year and to get a driving
licence. Guess what? I got pregnant at the start of the year the
moment I started working on my resolution by signing up with Comfort Driving
Centre. I had no choice, but to drop
the Spanish language but still stick to the driving. In this way, I can at least have 50% of my
resolution done.
However, some lessons into the driving, I realized I have
problem staying alert and focused through the lesson and at some points, almost
caused accidents on the road. I guess
there are still many areas that was not controlled nor decided by me. I dropped
from the driving and focused on keeping up with good health through the
pregnancy. The due was in November and
my kid was delivered in November 2008.
By the time I was done with my confinement, it was time for me to make
new resolution and reflect on my achievements, failures and areas to be
improved in all aspects, including work, family, personal and health.
