Last day of 2016.

Many of you (i assume) probably have never put in much thoughts, thinking about "how i should spend the last day of a particular year?" 

other then celebrating countdown with friends and family members. 

Instead, we're always unconsciously worrying about the future that hasn't yet arrive. 

On the last day of every year, i realized many are stuck in a continuous cycle (including myself.)

Coming up with new promises and resolutions. For the reason of wanting to become a better someone, lead a better life or to make themselves feel better? so on and so forth. 

That was me until recently, on every last day of the year...Always thinking and worrying about how i should spend my following year.

However, coming into the first day of 2017 my first thought was "nothing in particular has change..because i still see the same old me just in a different year."  Like how i kept my routine the same, wasting every second of my time each day not working towards my dream.

Let's be honest here. Looking back to all the years when we start making promises to ourselves.

How many promises, goals or resolution we said we would find all ways to accomplish and stay bulletproof to all kinds of distraction. In actual, manage to do so. ( If you know of some ways, please email me and tell me how.)

I dont know about you, but in 2016 i know i have definitely lose track of my true goal in the process of trying to achieve it. 

All in all, we got no one else to blame but ourselves for not being firm enough in our resolution. Constantly, procrastinating and allowing our bad habits to get ahead of us and give in to the devil temptation we were supposed to resist. 

It is already the 4th week of January 2017, i don't feel like an "improved version from 2016". I mean even i-phone is continuously upgrading themselves while on the other hand, i feel degraded each year *sigh*

To add on, i am always coming up with excuses to make myself feel better...

Saying things like i'm still searching for ways on how to stop being LAZY? 

When the answer can in fact, be found if we would just sit down and self-reflection, then decide what action to take and become more discipline. 

(this post is a good example of my procrastination which was supposedly to be upload on the last day of 2016 but failed to do so.)

Dear readers, you probably can tell by now that i'm tired of making meaningless promises, keeping the same old routine and not taking control of my life by changing for the better. 

Coming into 2017 made me realized the millions of meaningful things i had missed out on or could have done on a daily basis previously. 

Hopefully, before 2018 comes next year...
On the final day of 2017 everyone including myself would be able to spend our day meaningfully. 
Ensuring that it was a memorable one year that is worth moving on, to the next year. A one year which i or the rest of us wouldn't have to go back and reflect on what could have been better over and over again. 
Because till now, 2016 has left me with much regrets;')

Therefore, a challenge for myself and everyone. 

1. Get yourself a notebook and start writing reflections

2. Keep track of your progress no matter how small it is

3. No regrets

4. Plan how you want to make your last day of 2017 celebration a meaningful one 

Hopefully, new healthy habits will be develop along the coming months and the bad habits will be thrown away.
