New Year Resolutions

I have never been the one for making New Year resolutions. However, this year I feel compelled to commit to a few and seek support  from the universe to make it happen.

1. Being - Spend time doing less and being more. Being available. Being present. Making time for reflection and thinking. Slowing down.

2. Write - I have this urge to write and write a lot and keep holding myself back. I give myself many reasons - I don't write well. What I want to say has already been said. Who will read it. etc. I want to worry less and write more - Be it blogs, opinion pieces or poetry. I aim to write 15 pieces this year.

3. Reconnect - Reconnect with family and friends. Rekindle old friendships, make time to catch-up. Reconnect with my team at Dream a Dream. Reconnect with teachers and young people and partners.

4. Read - I enjoy reading but don't read as much. I want to read 12 books this year.

5. Prioritise - Prioritise myself. Support my dad with some of his tasks. Get my finances in order. Invest time in honing my cooking skills. Prioritise time for my sisters and cousins.

6. Minimalist - Continue the journey to have minimal possessions in my life. Reduce. Reuse. Recycle.

7. Gratitude - Express more gratitude towards life.

2017 already looks exciting!
