| 2019 Resolution |
One more New Year, started with new sunrise, lot of
celebrations, fun and wishes. We welcome it with full of excitement and energy.
We also welcome New Year with in one more way, resolution.
We all have dreams, desires, wishes in one or another way to
become a better person. New year reminds us to re-focus on these and have some
resolution to act on.
If we look back 2-3 or 4 years or as many years back we can
think of, a pile of resolutions remain unfulfilled, dreams were postponed,
desires were compromised.
A simple resolution of getting up early is not fulfilled even
for few days. After 2 days of forcing ourselves out of bed on committed time, full
body will turn still on 3rd to even respond to alarm.
We keep listening to motivational videos, control your
destiny, achieve great, don't procrastinate etc. etc.. We feel motivated for a
while but nothing works in long run.
I tried to see lot of successful people, read about them,
watched videos to understand what they do different from us. How they are
committed and achieve their goals while most of us think, desire and forget.
One thing I found in common among most is recording somewhere. Writing down
what we want from life, what matters us most, what we want to do today. It's a reflection of our mind, picking positive thoughts and discarding negative thoughts.
You call it journal , diary, self talk or whatever you want
to name it.
How we should do it?
Write your wishes, dreams and desires in a notepad, an
entry every morning.
"What you want to do today, how you want to spend
your day".
Don't put any pressure on yourself, neither be too ambitious.
If you want to spend full day watching movie or playing video games, write that. Be
honest.
We need to open this notepad once more just before sleep.
This will be for very short interval compared to time spent in morning. Go through
this once. This will be a mirror of your commitment in morning. Also it will
give mind a signal of end of day and mind can rest.
This process helps mind to be still and focused. This is the
way to let mind do what you want without forcing it to do. I managed to finish
lot of pending desires by following this ritual.
Make this a ritual in life and it will help to change your
habits to winners habit.
Wishing you all a Happy new year 2019.
Hope all your dreams come true and you achieve what you desire.
