Hello everyone, welcome to my blog! ❤️
As we all know, it's the beginning of another year, and everyone has a new year resolution, trying to adjust their lives and making changes and also setting goals for themselves. I am not excluded from making new year resolutions, i have a couple of goals to set and some things i need to work on myself. Every new year comes with that quiet moment where you sit with yourself and ask hard questions. Not the usual “What do I want?” But “What is holding me back?” This year, I’m not pretending to myself anymore. I have a lot to work on, and the biggest one is procrastination.
Procrastination has been my silent enemy for years. I don’t always notice it at first because it disguises itself as “I’ll do it later” or “I still have time.” But before I know it, later becomes never, and time runs out. I’ve lost opportunities because I delayed things that mattered. I’ve missed deadlines. I’ve watched ideas die simply because I didn’t act when I should have. Honestly, it hurts to admit that most of the setbacks I faced were not caused by lack of ability but by delay.
There were moments last year when I knew exactly what to do, but I chose comfort over action. I rested when I should have pushed. I postponed when I should have started. Procrastination didn’t just slow me down. It cost me growth. So this year, my first resolution is simple but difficult to stop procrastinating and start acting. I may not get everything right, but I want to at least show up for myself consistently, every single time there's need to show up.
Another important part of my resolution is my brand. I own a brand called Home of Varieties, and last year, I didn’t push it the way I should have. The vision is there. The ideas are there. The passion is there. But again, procrastination and inconsistency got in the way. This year, I want to take my brand seriously. Home of Varieties is not just a name to me, it represents creativity, effort, and potential. I want people to know it. I want to promote it more, work on it more, and believe in it more.
I’ve realized that no one will push my brand for me if I don’t push it myself. Growth doesn’t happen by wishful thinking, it happens through daily effort. This year, I’m choosing to show up for the Home of Varieties, even on days when motivation is low. I’m choosing discipline over excuses this year.
My health is also part of this new chapter. Last year, I tried, but I wasn’t consistent with exercise. I would go to the gym for a while, stop, then promise myself I’d go back “next week.” Sometimes next week never came. This year, I want to do better. Not because I want a perfect body, but because I want a healthier life. I want more strength, more energy, and better discipline.
Going to the gym is more than physical for me; it’s mental. It teaches consistency, patience, and commitment, things I need in every area of my life. I want to go to the gym more often than last year and make exercise part of my routine, not something I do only when I feel like it.
Lastly, Hive. Hive means a lot to me. It’s a space where I express myself, share my thoughts, and connect with people. Last year, I wrote articles, but I wasn’t as consistent as I wanted to be. Life got busy. Activities piled up. Again, procrastination played its role. There were days I wanted to write, but I kept postponing until the motivation faded.
This year, I want to change that. I want to stay more consistent on Hive, not because of rewards alone, but because writing helps me grow. It helps me reflect, improve, and stay accountable. I may not post every day, but I want to be intentional and consistent. I want to write even when it’s not perfect, even when it feels hard.
This new year resolution is not about becoming a completely new person overnight. It’s about becoming a better version of who I already am. One step at a time. One action at a time. No more waiting for the “right moment.” This year, I choose action, growth, consistency, and self-discipline.
Hopefully, when I look back at the end of the year, I’ll be proud that I didn’t give up on myself.
And that's a wrap on today's blog
See you on the next one . ❤️
