New year resolutions, 2009.

In 28 years, after celebrating that many new years and probably 4 or 5 new year resolutions I had arrived at this conclusion that this is not my stuff. Not that I do not feel the spirit of the new year or I do not anticipate a better future or I do not have the drive for betterment, but due to the simple complex reason that I never stick to them. I tell my friends that there is a limit to the personal betterment that can be achieved. I know if I am taking another NYR, then it will be like,
“dude, do not plan anything for this year or if planned, stick to them which u will never” and similes…..
But this time, I plan to stick to my plans for a change... (Note the point, I plan to...)
My new year resolutions, 2009.
1. Need a lifestye change. Stay happy, stay healthy is my moto for this year. How long it will take for breaking one big pack into six small packs? Lets see!
2. Some pple say that I am too much emotional. They say that I am emotional and that makes me weak leaving me behind the fast paced world.And in return, I tell them that this is one of my strengths and something which differentiates me from this emotionless world. But ofcourse I know that I must apply breaks on my impulsive nature that usually follows an emotional hype.I understand that these are good only for characters on screen and not for me. Look before you leap, think before acting etc etc are some of those old sayings to put my thoughts in short.
3. This is my father's wish. Higher studies. He surely is unaware of my B.Tech struggles, I know.
4.I know I am spending too much on buying books that interest me, but I am not reading them or atleast I am not finishing them. I know this is the procrastinate in me and he needs to be killed. I want to rediscover my reading speed.
5. Classical music..!!
6. Upgrade my home recording studio into a semi professional one.
7. I plan to reduce the time spend on monitor staring that is non productive from a wallet perspective. Come on buddy, at 28 it is difficult to find a GF through ymsgr.
8. I just roll my eyes when my father asks about the amount that I have in my wallet. I stopped guessing the amount after a number of failed attempts. So this is another of my NYRs...Maintain proper accounts on how i am spending each ruppee. Afterall, how many times will I hear the same stories again and again from the old person??
9. Till now I have been a falling leaf in wind, wandering aimlessly and carried by destiny. I need a sense of responsibility that can keep me on track. I have decided that I will act like a very responsible person hoping that one day it will become a part of my character.
10. And this is the most important one. I plan to (Note the point, I plan to...)stick to what I have planned so far.
