An open letter for everybody
Saturday, December 25th, 2010
For many, there is never a better time to feel more happy, than Christmas. It’s full of food, laughter and of course presents. Family and friends come together and rejoice in this beautiful festive period. Even if you don’t celebrate Christmas, it’s still an excuse to get merry. I mean, why not.
But here’s what I also like to do. I look back on the year, and smile. I become thankful for all the great moments I’ve had. I also look back on the sad and angry times… and learn from those moments. But MOST important, I look at the future (in this case, 2011) …and make some SERIOUS goals for myself.
So this is what I want you to do also.
I want you to grab a pen and a piece of paper. I want you to write down all the things you want to REALLY accomplish in 2011. No I’m NOT talking about some stupid new years resolution, which most people fail at miserably anyway.
I’m talking about GOALS. Stuff to GET DONE with NO excuses. Here are a few things some of you may consider:
* Write an album worth of songs which you can actually take to MARKET
* Perfect your performance so that you can perform to a single person or a crowed of 60,000
* Get your lazy self to the gym and work out a minimum of 3 times a week NOW
* Look at your bad habits in the face and become the change you wish to see
* Study like crazy so you WILL pass those exams with NO fear and NO problem
* Create a better character and personality ethic so you can GET that job or promotion you’re been after
* Once and for all STOP smoking and drinking lots if you actually gave a damn about yourself and the people who love you
* STOP spending your time on useless and meaningless things that will produce NO results for you
* CREATE new friends who you ASPIRE to be like. You will NEVER be a winner if you choose to hang around losers. Yes, I said it.
* BE more loving towards the people that care about you.
I could go on and on. Realize that life is what you make of it. At the end of every year, you will only be known for only one of 2 things: Results OR Excuses.
Which one do you want to fall in?
Have an amazing Christmas and a New Year filled with ‘results accomplished’ …:-)
