My new year resolution. Hmm 🤔. Gone are the days when I usually shout new year new me. It has never really helped me or so I guess. This year I want everything about my life to be intentional, every hour, every day of the year 2026. No pressure intended though and also no laziness allowed. This year I would love to do a lot of things to improve on myself. I noticed I do have a lot of things I need to work on in my life one of which I wrote about yesterday.
Patience
The ability to say no
Read books
My writing skills and lastly
My aura and poise
Patience: I have always been the impatient person, not willing to listen to the end, not willing to wait and see and it has really done a lot of harm than good.
The ability to say no : you see this one I'm sleeping on it. The ability to say no without feeling bad (people pleasing) is what I'm picking up this new year. It started with my parents, for the first time in one million years I said no to them and heaven did not fall. It wasn't easy though. A lot of the time I have said "yes" to the demands of people and inconvenienced myself badly simply because I don't want to make them feel bad but you see this year it has to end.
Read books: I have already started a collection of books I want to read for the first three months of this year, although they are not here yet but I'm going to read books. I'm not just reading books for reading sake. I want to go back to the days when I enjoy reading books and I noticed for a fact that I was more confident then compared to now because I had broad knowledge of almost everything.
My writing skills : I have decided to start a streak here on hive, I want to challenge myself to write everyday on hive till the end of the year. I hope to be able to achieve it. So help me God. Lastly, I want to work on my aura and poise I want to be able to move around with confidence and look people In the eyes with my head up when I enter a room, not cowering like some little baby cry for sweet. This does not mean I'll be proud, I just want to work on my self esteem.
I'm not living this year for anyone but myself. So help me God
