NEW YEAR, NEW ME...Again?

New Year, New Me...Again?

"New Year, New Me"
Often, this phrase is used with no intention to change, rather, the phrase "New Year, Same Me" surfaces.
It’s of no doubt that this saying has been on the lips of many since forever. The echoes of it everywhere we go.
But do we actually follow it?
In as much as we all claim to have had a rough year, it’s not so easy to think that y’all will be transformed into a better and reformed version of yourselves at the crack of midnight of New Year’s Eve.
Don’t be delusional, my dear.
"Everyone knows how difficult it is to keep New Year resolutions...." Yenyenyenyen.
It all about determination and focus, anyway.
This is the time to consider how your life will turn out.
It is the time to re-strategise your plans for the coming year.
What are your intentions for 2024?
How will you fulfill them?
What matters is the self-discipline and zeal in achieving these set goals.
How many of your set goals were you able to accomplish this year and previous years of emphasizing on the "New Year, New You"?
These are thoughts that should be running through your mind.
Those friends you’ve been planning to cut off because of the peer pressure and their bad influence on you?
Now is the time to cut them off.
Get up, stay active and let’s nail 2024!
It’s time to trash the "New Year, New Me" and stay focused.
For me, the things I want to achieve are so big and daunting that I have to follow the subtle process and put no pressure on myself.
In all of these, be Happy.
Don’t put someone else’s happiness before yours.
Stay Lit up, Happy and Joyful!
Darling and with this, the 2023 season comes to an end.

Thank you for reading through.😇
Stay Tuned.💫
