New Year Resolutions

Records, promises, hearts all are here to be breakon. And so are New Year Resolutions. Making a Resolution is becoming an annual practice the world over. Emotions are attached to it too. And resolutions are broken as quickly as they are made. Very few end up sticking to it. Seriously, its fun to make a resolution. And funnier still breaking it. Its like a mockery. Most end up with breaking it, in the first 8-10 days, others, after a month or so (when they have to fight old habits as well as the time), and others'' resolutions don''t even see the light of the day. Another reason for getting the resolution broken is emotions. One gets a lot emotional at midnight 31 rst December & resolves ''something''. Its, of course, over enthusiasm, over confidence and what not? The same amount of confidence and emotional level is difficult to maintain. Because, as long as we decide to do something thats new to us, or something different from our daily boaring routine till the 31rst, we do have the extra energy prompts us to determine something at that time. But when its a nine days wonder one gets board of doing the same ''silly'' things which were once quite important and at the top of our agenda once, comes crashing down. And no wonder its human.
So what are the common resolutions:-
1) Get the '' bad habit'' of drinking out of life ( Its ''bad'' is known only on 31rst! )
2) Quit Smoking ( You know smoking causes cancer! )
3) Lose Weight ( That might cause a heart attack! )
4) Go for morning walks (in the mornings only) ( That might make me lighter! )
5) Check Anger ( Check where to get angry? Or control it because anger burns our own blood! ) These positive things dawn to the resolution makers only around the year end.
But none/few seem to make resolutions like
1) Utilise our own time positively.
2) Do some constructive work for our own family, society and country.
3) Help the poor and the needy.
4) Do at least one such work daily due to which I will not feel embarassed in front of the God.
5) While going to bed, if I revise my day from dawn to dusk, I should be able to have a sound and stressless sleep.
