Music on Repeat: Katy Perry - Firework
I hope everyone is having an amazing start to a new year. Right now I want to start this new year by blogging and keeping a reminder of what I have to do this new year so when I look back at the end I will not feel what I felt in 2010. Let me list these things now. I have divided them in to categories.
Health (Renew)
1. Less Stressing.
Whatever knocks you down, remember you always learn from all your mistakes. Each mistake is a life lesson to learn from. You can’t make too many but whatever there is trouble, access the situation and change it.
2. Work out.
Continue your running every other weekday and make time to go to the gym. This involves gaining weight. Preferably another 10-15 pounds. Your 120-125 now, make it 130-135 with muscle.
Personality (Reinvent)
1. Find your own style. Let 2011 be your experiment year.
A. Go out and shop, look what is appropriate for the season and your budget. Don’t look at brand name clothes but look for clothes that make you feel comfortable.
B. Try out a new haircut.
C. Ditch the glasses and experiment with contacts. Preferably in order to wear shades in the summer.
D. Remember to do the things you love. Snowboarding, playing piano, art. You have talent you just have to practice and harness it.
2. Improve your social life.
A. Stop expecting people to invite you places. Go make the events and host them.
B. Learn to talk to strangers. A simple hello should suffice.
C. Be more outgoing. Weekends get out of the house.
3. You have regrets? Try doing something about it. (Revive)
A. I never finished college. Go do something about it. Too scared to take out that loan. Have confidence and do it.
B. Ashamed to communicate with old friends? If they are your friends, they’ll understand what you are going through. If they don’t understand there are many other friends that will understand. Find your true friends.
C. If there is a girl that you feel is attracted to you. Ask her out on a date. If she rejects you, you tried. If you haven’t tried at all, then you leave with nothing. If she rejects you you still leave with nothing. If she says yes, then sir there is hope. Does rejection hurt you that bad that you wouldn’t attempt it? [Smack] Just man up and do it.
I therefore sign this new years resolution with a honesty agreement to myself. I have underlined all my goals I wanted to fulfill and I have to promise myself that to attempt these goals for 2011. The important resolution I have to keep for new years is to be honest with myself, family and friends. I have this tendency to keep things to myself and it ends up hurting me later on. I already have my goals in my head. I just need to write it down as a reminder or a means to organize my thoughts on paper, or as in this case digital paper.
Here’s to 2011. May you fulfill all the goals you hoped for.
Renew, Reinvent and Revive yourself Vince. This is your year.
Signed,
Don (Vince) Legaspi
