It’s time of the year when we start recalling what we did for the whole 365 days. We count seconds we lost and hours we made full use of. We list the books we read and places we travelled to. We apologize to things we couldn’t accomplish and promise to mark it next year because at the end of the day, we never fail to procrastinate. Life basically like the roadway from Thankot to Gorkha, turns and hurdles, ups and downs. I am pretty sure 2017 wasn’t like a cream to all of us, smooth and tasty. This year was a roller coaster for me, literally. I went too deep into things that shouldn’t have gotten that big importance as I gave while importance things were just pushed aside. I went two surfaces down the lane, nearly hitting the bottom. However, by the end of the year I am accelerating, slowly but I am. Within these intervals, I took break from social media for nearly three weeks. Those were days when I brainstormed most of the ideas about how I would drive 2018. Like two sides of a coin, I lived both sides. I started 2017 with one resolution that was, “I would read 30 books this year.” This was the only goal or resolution I had, as I am not into planning. With the end of this year, I am happy to say that I am becoming more of an organized person. There are good things I achieved and bad things as well. But let’s start and end with good things that happened.

 

Firstly, I graduated. Graduation always felt like a dream, somewhat like the clouds you wish to touch. Henceforth, I am officially under-graduate Graduate. Secondly, I got into the core team circle of Working As Angel; it is an NGO if you do not know. Thirdly, both my Instagram and Facebook family grew. Writing became my priority. Earlier I mentioned about making resolution to complete 30 books by the end of 2017 and guess what, I completed 38 books. I am proud of myself. Adding another of my achievements, I lost 6 kgs in a month. Like BAM. I lost it in a healthy way, under strict diet and exercise. Furthermore, I completed one more year with my best friends. I am trying to make friends but I have been too anti-social that I am having difficulties with it. However, I made few, like two or three, new friends this year. But adding more social quality in me is my 2018 goals. I’ve already made resolution for the coming year because I believe that is how I will actually speed. And I have already started on with it. For instance, “NO HATE” mission. I am currently on a no hate mission as I am a person who catches bad vibes really quick, in a light speed. What I am currently doing is, reciting one good thing about that person I hate. I let you know the result. If you try to let me knows yours result as well. With vibes I remember, it’s actually been a year and half that I started “Believe in your instinct” and it is getting stronger. Oh yes, I also learned driving this year. Hopefully, I will get my license soon. Lastly, I finally finished my book and 2018 would change my tag from Writer to Author. Fingers crossed.

Basically, those were my achievements and let me add a little few lines about what I would possibly accomplish by 2018. This coming year would be about growth, personally and professionally.

Goal of reading 80 books. I’ll be tracking it in Goodreads.
Start journaling. Keeping track.
More helpful and fun posts update in my blog.
Travel alone for once.
A movie date with myself.
Publishing my book.
Change my values and replace it with better ones that makes me believe in myself.
Make new friends. Adding companionship into my life.
Continue with “no hate mission.”
