New Year's Resolution for 2012

As we say goodbye to the year 2011, it has been a tradition for people, including myself, to come up with their own list of New Year's Resolution. Unfortunately, I must admit that not all of the things in my list last year was fulfilled. But it has been helpful for me in terms of motivation and as well as to keep track of what I want to accomplish before the year ends. So yeah, not being able to fulfill everything in my list last year is not going to stop me from creating another for 2012.

My New Year's Resolution

1. Start taking risks

Well, 2011 was not an easy year for me. I realized how I was always staying in my comfort zone whenever something presents itself to me. I never took the chance of taking risks and see how it'll treat me. Instead, I was too afraid and busy thinking about the possible consequences that it made me fail to acknowledge what opportunities it could give me. So, perhaps, I want my 2012 to be totally different. I want to start taking chances and see how far that kind of thinking could take me in terms of success and contentment.

2. Learn how to decide for myself

Being indecisive has always been my problem. Deciding for myself has been a challenge and a serious pain in the ass. If only learning how to weigh things out was easy enough for me, I wouldn't have this problem at all. I don't know, people may see this as an easy thing to do but for me, its just hard. Do we have therapy for this? :|

I also realized how this could be a serious problem, when I'm already facing the real world or in simpler terms, when I'm already employed or looking for a job.

This coming New Year, I will really try my best to work on this weakness. In fact, NY Resolution # 1 can be somewhat interrelated to this. Perhaps, when I learned how to take risks, I will have an easier time to decide for myself.

3. Be aggressive

I don't mean aggressive in a mean kind of way but aggressive in a sense that I will no longer be a push over. I've always been too kind to people that sometimes they tend to take advantage. I know, its not a healthy disposition for myself, that's why its one of those things that I really want to change. I'm not saying that I'm no longer going to be the easy-to-be-with-Kim that the people used to know, maybe creating a perfect balance between being kind and aggressive would be alright.

4. Meet new people

This has been included in my list ever since and I'm proud to say that I've always fulfilled it. I met a lot of amazing people all through out the years and most especially this year. So again, this coming 2012, I would want to meet MORE interesting people. Or even better, maybe a person who could possibly change my life... FOREVER. If ya' know what I mean.


5. Lose WEIIIGGGHT!

Ah! Its every girl's goal! When some of your jeans doesn't fit you anymore, your weight suddenly begins to be a big deal. AGREE? AGREE!


6. Stop OVERANALYZING          

They say its innate for women to overanalyze different situations. But I say, I can turn that side of me off -- or at least try. This is a very VERY bad practice of mine. If women overanalyze, then in my case, I over-overanalyze. That's how worse I am, and it really has to stop. I've had enough of false hopes and expectations. In 2012, I will reiterate to myself that I NOW KNOW BETTER. Don't OVERANALYZE, Don't EXPECT. FALSEHOPES! 


7. No to insecurities

Very very unhealthy. 2012 should be all about embracing myself for ME. No VS model would put me down this time. But seriously, I have to learn how to appreciate what I have and never compare myself to others. In fact, I am unique. I have my own strengths and weaknesses. I just have too shoo away all those insecurities and I'm good to go! :)


8. Let Go and God

I have been in great distance with Him ever since. I know its not a good practice but maybe the start of 2012  will be the perfect time where I could renew and strengthen my faith with God.

9. Spend more time with my family

Again, this has been on my list ever since and look how much quality time I'm spending with my family now? Family really comes first. Now, that my sister went to UAE for work, I come to realize how important it is to maximize my time with them than usual.

10. Less spoiled

Yes, I still throw tantrums whenever I don't get what I want. Its embarrassing but its true. This new year, that spoiled brat inside of me should disappear for good.

11. Start a Blog

Well, as you can see, this is already being fulfilled. Hopefully, I will be consistent enough in sharing the most awesome experiences I had up to the most random and craziest ones.

12. Save money/spend wisely

In times like these you need to know how to spend wisely and at the same time save money. I've been spending too much this year and I guess its time to change that habit this 2012. I will really try my best to save as much money as I can and put it into good use and not spend them carelessly.

13. Be more mature

Being a kid at heart is not a problem but sometimes being too childish is not good. In Spice Girls' words, "too much of something, is bad enough". I really have to start thinking my age and act like my age as well.

14.  DREAM BIG

They say law of attraction works and I think its about time for me to try its wonders. I have nothing to loose, so I better create a vision board quick!

15. Be MORE organized

I know I'm already organized. But apparently, I just realized that my being organized is still not good enough. My very definition of organized is not at all organized by nature. So yeah, I need to get rid of the messy me and say hello to the organized me!

This is what I've come up so far. Its not that hard to achieve, yes? Hopefully, I would be able to fulfill all of them before 2012 ends. My fingers are crossed! Have a Happy New Year Guys! :) Cheers!
