I used to have new year's resolutions.
losing weight by 5 kilos, eating heathy, working out (pilates), posting everyday on my blogs,
learning new languages (Chinese, French, Japanese), making music, learning new musical instruments like cello or viola
I used to dream a lot
Fortunately, I usually failed to make it
and made the similar resolutions which seems to be exact same as the previous year
This year, I didn't make any new year's resolutions
I thought about why
because I knew I would fail again?
because I didn't want ot be bothered with making new year's resoultions which would eventually end up with failure?
I don't know.
Korean say you should make a resolution every three days, as the firm willingness to do something fades away in three days
I'm not going to make my dream big.
small, specific, easy to start
The first thing I really wanna do is
to learn new languages (Chinese, Japanese, French)
My English isn't perfect so that I need to keep reading good books and practicing
My second desperate dream list is
trimming down with working out
working out at home and taking care of my facial condition
reading more books
novels and non-fiction books on management and finance
I would like to deepen in certain areas
such as bible, language, posture, logic pro X
I know people are not interested in someone else's new year's resoultion seemingly non-special
Thing is
I just transfered all the content and photos from my iPhone 7 to iPhone 8 plus with itunes
It's very easy for iPhone experts to do it
but for me it's been quite a difficult job
No one wants to reveal what's weak and makes them look stupid
I've used my iPhone for almost 8 years
But so far I've never itunes
since telecommunication company local store always transfered what I had had in my previous phone to the new one.
It's a small success
just one step forward
But it makes me very happy and proud of myself
I found a small success boosts the moral which leads to a bigger success
so that
it's very important to experience to start over something which seems to be difficult to do and try
Once you make it, you will be encouraged to do further
Definitely you would experience failure
but if you sit on your hands, you would never see you doing something difficult and making it
trying and failing and trying and failing
It would develop you and make you better
In 2018, I will do something I never even dared to try
In a buffet, I found myself eating what I used to eat
I never choose what looks unfamiliar
When my friend encourages and even pushes me to eat the new one
I hesitate to try and find how great it is
Life is full of excitement
If you stick to what you are used to, you would never experience what would make you live a more exciting and more abundant life
Let's try together something new
Even if it is the same as you expected, so what?
Nothing dangerous
that's what we have to pay off for what gives you a more opportunity
Let's try it
