Hello everyone!
I hope that you all have a fantastic start of the new year.
I’m pretty sure that some of you have kick-started the year with your new self-resolutions. As for me, there is only one resolution that I am making for myself this year and it is TO OUTDO MYSELF.
... to be more disciplined in doing the tasks that I set myself to do, and believe that I could and will overcome my failures.
… to remember to be more helpful, kind, sensitive & patient to others than I was with them before.
My goal is to be able to answer positively these questions by the end of every week:
“HOW WAS I BETTER TO MYSELF THIS WEEK?”
“HOW WAS I BETTER IN TREATING OTHERS THIS WEEK?
and if I mess up…“WHAT CAN I DO TO BE BETTER NEXT TIME?”
I know that I will stumble along the way, but that is the very reason why I chose to have this resolution- so that I could keep trying and competing to myself until I become the better version of me.
As Simon Sinek wonderfully put it, “You are your competition…That is what ensures you find joy. Because the joy comes not from comparison but from advancement.”
I wish all of you a happy blessed new year!
Wow.. keep it up. Great.

Nice to know it’s gathering sales, Brigid. It’ll pick up eventually. ☺ I’m still catching up with my blogging and reading. My daughter’s having her quarterly quizzes now so we’re busy reviewing, and I have bunch of works in the office…so I’m kinda hectic with my schedule at this time hehe!

Gently does it. I succumbed to chest infection so I am reblogging old posts to allow rest and a catch up. It will all get done in the end!

Sounds like a great goal… Just be careful with the perfectionist side. While you can continue to look for improvements, spare time to reflect on what you did well and what you’re proud of too:)
