PROMISES TO KEEP & MILES TO GO IN 2010

Another New Year has crept in silently and before even realizing a week has already gone past in 2010. It is a little scary at times; pondering over the fact that almost 1/3rd of life has been spent on this planet. But I have miles to go before I sleep :)

Although promises are hardly kept but I will strive to at least fulfill the ones made to myself ;) So here goes a quick wish list for my 2010. This post is more of a note to myself and hopefully after putting this on my blog, I would work on achieving the same with utmost diligence.

  • Will take up a cause - yes something beyond the cause of hunger, dwindling profits of multiplex owners and sweet-shop owners :P Would focus on the cause of education of the underprivileged kids. Have already started on this one as a volunteer of an NGO, Udayan Care. Hope to live up to this commitment and take it to greater heights
  • I hereby pledge to lead a healthier lifestyle - Eat, drink, splurge in moderation & exercise more. Thus, help the Indian economy grow leaps & bounds with my contribution by devouring less and paying the gym owners more :P
  • Will try to go as green as possible. That means besides wearing more green :P will be more careful in my carbon footprint. However, that will not mean that I shun books and shift to e-reader, Kindle. Will catch up on my reading of real books and finish the long list awaiting me.
  • Will not leave any opportunity to travel around and explore new places despite chiding from mom and inch closer towards my dream to travel around the world :)
  • Also, plan to pick up a new hobby or a new activity this year
  • Will not lose my temper unnecessarily - Will stay calm and try practice Yoga as advised by many :P Will try to be more open to people, situations & life in general - Ponder before making prejudices and will maintain my usual enthusiastic approach to life :)
  • Also last but not the least will pay more attention to my blog & keep the posts flowing regularly
Hope it is a Happy 2010 in true sense :)

  1. The most honest and humbling blog I have ever read in a long long time. To start with the ‘Green’ thing, save electricity and for that, you need to shut down your comp – office one:-). And to make it even more prominent, you should give me ur lappy (for now and forever):). You forgot to add 1 very important resolution – to WORK ;). Wohh kya hai ki after all those, Yoga, gymming, traveling, reading, exercising, hobby-ing, blogging and intelligent prejudicing – That just leave about only a meager time to work and also – sleep. lol ..:-D

  2. I very very important resolution you forgot- It goes like this (not the words but the essence at least) - “Mein aaj se kabhi baat baat pe pen, chaaku, pencil (or koi sharp objects) nai nikalungi aur logo ko baat baat pe murder threats nai dungi. Me sada achchey bachey ki tarah rahungi aur logo ko sunungi, samjhungi aur seva karungi. :-)

  8. Awesome blog! Do you have any recommendations for aspiring writers?
    I'm hoping to start my own blog soon but I'm a little lost on everything.
    Would you recommend starting with a free platform
    like Wordpress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I'm completely confused .. Any tips? Bless you!

  12. I've been surfing online more than 4 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It's pretty worth enough for me.
    In my opinion, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the web will be
    much more useful than ever before.
