New Year Resolution Tingi by Bsorlah

When I began to see  personal messages, display pictures, and status updates with such messages as,  "its almost time for that new year, new me B******t".  "I'm gonna be dumping some people this year", etc, my attention was caught,  my heart drawn and my pen suddenly became Inseparable with my paper.

Then I asked myself what the ideology behind a resolution is all about.

Join me on this ride as I share my ideology.

Just for clarity purpose,

A resolution is said to be 'a firm decision to do or not to do something. i.e the act of solving a problem or contentions matter'.

Aside the above definition,  I choose to see a resolution as 'the act/ decision to either change or advance in/on certain things/areas.

On this basis, let us have a throwback.

Two years ago (2012), I told myself I would avoid doing certain things. Only a week into the new year, I had done the same things over and again. Strangely, I changed and advanced more in those things that needed change in but left them pending.

That moment, I realized that for a resolution to fall in place, these things have to be understood and there has to be a willingness to carry them out.

1) The price attached to the advancement you require : This is the point where you consider your gain or loss as a result of executing that thing on your list.

2) The sacrifice to pay for letting go : This is the point you feel hurt and you miss that part of you that you need to advance in. They say "No pain, No gain".

3) The things on your list have to be very important to you :  When everything on your list matters so much to you, it doesn't matter the pain you feel,  you just want it to work it out and right.

So keeping a resolution isn't a bad thing at all.  It all depends on how you see it and you readiness to make it work.

It is said that whatever we set our minds to achieve, we achieve. Make your list and see it through. Nothing is impossible.
