To some people, making new year resolution might seem childish and to some extent useless. But to me, the new year resolution is a some objective that I need to attain in a year. Why I make and follow the new year resolution? Glad you asked (or not!). I know I am going to die at some point. Before I die, I want to do something with the time I have been allotted by the almighty Allah! I want to use this time well and design my life. I have set several visions or long-term objectives which I plan to reach by the end of my life. These new year resolutions are pieces of those visions in a form of short term goal. I write about these resolutions because I want it to keep it documented.
Ideally, I make my new year resolution on the first day of the English new year. But this time I was so much busy with my works, I couldnât make it on the first day. I thought I will do it by next couple of days but I totally forgot about it until today. So here goes:
