I started this year by asking myself several questions on how to change my old self, things I could do to improve in whatsoever I used to do.
I know most of the things I failed to do as a result of procrastination and laziness.
Most of the things I stopped doing are as a result of laziness and lack of consistency.
But thanks to the ladies of hive community who has helped us to recreate the things we will love to do better for ourselves in 2024. I have really gone into deep thinking ever since I saw this topic.
And I have really been able to discover those things I want to do better in 2024.
Follow me and let's have fun talking about it.
What would you do differently or start doing for yourself next year?
First thing first
I want to learn how to cook a proper meal
Don't get me wrong...I know how to cook some little food like rice, beans, spaghetti, indomie etc.
But I am not really good when it comes to soup and other variety. I have been planning to learn this for a very long time now... due to tight schedules and school work.
I want to be able to prepare a presentable meal for my family and everyone at large. So this year, I promise myself to be better in meals and be my own chef.
Learn new skills
Life is not all about school, we all must aquire at least one hand skills we can boast of. So I am planning of learning how to make hair and apply make up. Trust me this little handwork has fed a lot of many families, not just that...it has been a support system to many Nigerian students out there.
So this year, I have planned to take up makeup sessions and also learn how to braid hair.
Read 100 different inspirational books
Yes, I have never tried this particular one before, I am someone that doesn't love reading outside my school work and projects. I don't care to read outside the box or try something new.
But I thought about it that I have to develop myself by disciplining everything in me to sit down tight and achieve something better and tangible for myself.
I am not planning of reading just novels, the 100 books consistent of marriage books, business books, self development, the bible, money management etc I believe that after everything, I know my life will be for the better after expanding my knowledge with this few books.
Then, I will also go into research and other few things for self development.
Stop procrastination and more of consistency
I love procrastinating, especially if it doesn't benefits me. I love saying I will do it and that's how I won't even do it at all. Majority of the times I procrastinate is because of laziness and this year I have planned to do something very different from the usual things I used to do.Then more of consistency. Towards the ends of this year, I have really seen the benefits of consistency. Even if it looks like it isn't going smoothly as the way we planned it, we should keep pushing and put more efforts too.
And today, i have seen the results of consistency and hardwork. And in 2024, I want to do more of this and I believe that more results will be out.
Finally,
Learn to give more, love more and talk less
Giving is my thing, but most times I don't give because I feel I have very little and I can't share it and majority of the people will mistake it for greediness or being stingy.
This year, I have decided to start sharing the little that i have..so that I can be able to give when I have more.
2024, I want to love unconditionally, with the whole of my heart, not loving because of the benefits I will derive from the love but because of love the person for what he/she is and not for what the person has.
All of the above are my basic goals and plan for the betterment of my life in the year 2024. I know that some might be kind of hard..but I hope to achieve some even if it is not all. So help me God
