Hi all :)
its a new year and i've been thinking of some guidelines to improve myself
i endeavour to be :
1) more open
-to be more adventurous in terms of meeting new people, with sharing my life, in handling problems with others instead of worrying about things myself
( i admire people who can connect with utter strangers with a click of your fingers, while still with-holding your own privacy --friendly but not overly friendly )
-i will need this trait to network and be a better friend
-i will take up more challenges and leave my comfort zone
2) less hedonistic
-i aim to prioritize more
-to follow my brain more than my heart
-to finish up the things due me rather than procrastinating
-to focus on my goals ahead.
3) more crafty ( not that way!)
-to get in touch with my artistic side more
-aim to do more diy around my room, in giving of presents, in real life
- to think of creative solutions
-to go for fleas, or competitions, or anything that stimulates my artistic side
4) pick up piano again
-i shall pick things up once my exams are over and out of the way
-i aim to practice at least 2 times per week
-i shall aim for at least grade 5 competency
5) refocus my hobbies
-i'm now a jack of all trades, dabble a little here and a little there
-i shall focus on one hobby and go through with it
-be it start a business, learn salsa, learn foreign language etc..
6) save 20% of my monthly earnings..
-now this is a hard goal... :(
i'm not a good saver.
plans for this year :
1) start my own online business
( perhaps get terry to help design a decent website?)
-ask for help on livejournal ??
-need to draw out my business plans on what to sell, what to do, expansion plans ,ideas etc
-perhaps frequent flea markets :)
2) go macau and another country
-thinking of thailand
-or perhaps vietnam to visit sam
- somewhere where i can be inspired just like i have been going to paris, i'm bursting with creative juices and ideas now
3) minimum savings $1200 this year..
its not exhaustive, but this is all i can think of now .
i did think about my studies, but i do not want to stress myself , my aim is to do the best i can, while enjoying myself .
but that said, i'm aiming to be in the top 10 %
which is pretty darn hard now...
100 days left..
four more months to the big exams..
i better start clearing my doubts pronto!!!
