BYE 2015, WELCOME 2016!!!

As this year ends and gives way to a new year, there may be a few questions you'd like to ask yourself:
1. Did I set any goals for 2015?
2. Have I achieved any of those goals? (If yes, kudos! If no, you might want to ask yourself why)

3. Have I achieved something that I can be proud of? 
4. Have I been good? How can I become better?
5. Was I a spendthrift or can I be proud of how well I managed my expenses?
6. How did I spend my free time? 
7. How well did I take care of my body, mind and soul?
8. What projects have I completed? Which have I procrastinated? 
9. Did I make good use of my time? How well can I re-structure it?
10. Have I allowed fear of failure to hold me back in any way? 
11. Have I been unfair to anyone? Have I wronged anyone?
12. Do I need to forgive anyone? Do I need to let go? 

13. Which old habits do I need to stop?
14. Which new habits do I need to cultivate?
15. What lessons have I learned? 
16. Have I been kind to myself and to others?
17. Have I been open-minded?
18. Did I take any risks in the right direction?
19. Did I make anyone happy? Did I help people in need? Was I a shield to others who needed it? Did I "fight" for others? Did I fight for what is right?

20. Did I make someone smile? Did I make someone happy? Did I make my parents proud of me?


We need to learn to let go off what is unimportant.
We need to learn to make other people happy. 

We need to be more cautious in the upcoming year and set goals in order to achieve them, not just because everyone's doing that. 
Make time for everyone. Strike a balance in whatever you do. Do you, boo! 
Don't pressurize yourself to do something just because everyone else is.
BE DIFFERENT. BE UNIQUE.
Make someone smile. Be the reason for someone's smile.
LOVE GENUINELY

Read something new everyday. Educate yourself everyday.
If you don't enjoy what you already do as a hobby, find new hobbies. Try new stuff. New, not bad! Explore. Have fun. Fall in love. Take calculated risks. Live. Love. Laugh. Dream. Believe. Achieve

Have a grudge with someone? Say sorry first even if you're not the one at fault.
Learn to accept your mistakes. Learn to say sorry. It wouldn't hurt your "ego" to say sorry first. This doesn't mean you should say sorry first just for the cheek of it. No! When you apologize to someone, make sure you mean it. Make sure it's a sincere apology.
(Saying sorry to someone also means, 'hey, I realize my mistake and I'm genuinely sorry about that. I'll try not to repeat the same mistake again).

Feel lonely? Talk to someone. Take a walk. Read a book. Listen to music, sing, dance, reminisce, visit someone, etc. (NB: Don't just visit or talk to someone just because you're bored).
Last but not least, set goals for 2016 and make sure you accomplish them.
LOVE YOURSELF. BE YOURSELF. LISTEN TO YOUR INTUITIONS. BE YOU.
Wish you a very happy new year and a prosperous, successful 2016.
