Curvy Diary: New Year Resolutions

Happy New Year!!

As we welcome a new beginning, a fresh canvas awaits to be filled with accomplishments, adventure and most of all a benchmark case that we shall use to answer at the end of the year. I cannot wait to kick start the adrenaline filled, hope stirred and goal set year. I love the void that is divine, bold, mysterious, yet beautiful at the same time. The circus ahead is a masterpiece, a work in progress.

 Sadly, we are all fractured. All of us. We start off strong and fall off the sledge with the blink of an eye. The right focus, the right attitude, the right circle and the best health are just but a few things we need to have closest to make the most out of life. At this very moment, I have a confession. I’m all set to pen down my thoughts but the comfiness of these pair of leggings is just heavenly. Trust me, if we took a walk together, sat down to take coffee or went to a book club together; I’d still talk about my pair of leggings. My fellow ladies raise your hands if you understand what I’m trying to say. Comfiness is everything. These leggings, yes, this is life.

Here are my six focal resolutions that I plan to focus on this year. So help me God.

Healthy Living

It is all about self when it comes to health.In short, you are what you eat. Practicing healthy living starts with loving your body and being confident in your own skin. Healthy living to me is about taking the time out to breathe and smell the coffee. Taking hikes, frequent evening and morning walks are just part of what I plan to indulge in. When it comes to food, I prefer small healthy portions accompanied by healthy snacks like fruits. Little treats will sure come in but on occasional basis. It is all about discipline, loving my body and being goal focused. Procrastination will hit on some days, but I’ll remain true to the end result.

Dressing 

The way your dress tells a lot about your personality even before you speak. When you understand that, all you want is to be the sequin in the world of khaki. Upgrading your wardrobe really helps you to keep up with current trends and unique designs that come up. Keep up with the trends and those outfits that bring out your curves and the best of you. For the ladies who want to stand out, watch out for good things that Plus Classique (an online plus size store) has to offer.

 Relationships

You know the saddest of things is that we have fallen vulnerable to technology such that we have forgotten the sense of touch, love and the blossoming laughter. These days, getting right in your relationships is getting right with your phones and all the apps applied to the gadgets. We are all vulnerable but we can adjust accordingly. I plan to spend most of my free time having family cook offs, laughing and reminiscing with my close knit circle of family, friends and my partner. Me – time is also a main focus to help rejuvenate and plan my thoughts. Peace begins with you and your small circle, if that fails I doubt you will find love or peace anywhere else.

Spirituality

Without God we are nothing. Need I say more? Draw close to Him and watch the wonderful things that follow.

Career

When you not happy at work, the resolution is easy. Get a new job. Simple.  It may sound cliché but if you are not happy and productive in your job, it’s time to re-evaluate yourself. Change your field to something more fun and one where you will be productive. This year, focus on adding a skill on your resume and also expand your network. Update your resume to read the current job position it is easier than waiting till when you have moved jobs to upgrade your resume.

Finances

Work hard play hard they say. As the year is still young, this is the best time to set financial targets and set aside little treats once in a while to motivate self. As a society we crave for what is shiny, new and best. We are always distracted thus we live in the moment rather than focus on the rainy days. Putting a little aside finally builds up and serves a cushion to any uncalculated moves in future. Take the time to talk to a financial specialist, heck, Google as much as you may on finances. Dig as much information and practice the much you learn.

What are your New Year resolutions?
