In less than an hour, the first day of year 2011 will be over.
Before the end of the first day of the year, it is time to at least record my hopes and wishes for the year. Perhaps at the end of 2011, I can come back to this entry and review my "progress".
Year 2010 has been a year of ups and downs. For Year 2011, I wish to gain some level of constancy and hope to cultivate a higher level of self discipline and tolerance.
I hope to also gain more confidence in myself in even more aspects and refrain from reacting in negative ways due to esteem issues.
I also want to learn to treat myself better and stop shortchanging myself.
Goals and Action Items
Weight
Long Term Goal : Hit 65kg preferred weight
Short Term Goal : Lose 10kg of weight (I've done it before so I CAN do it again! Gambatte!)
Action Items :
- Target to exercise minimum 3 times a week
- Encourage myself to exercise daily if possible
- USE my gym membership - visit PPW and STC
- Swim (I enjoy swimming so why am I not doing so??)
- Go off from work on time (Recognise that work can be done within work hours and all that after hours working is a whole load of nonsense and is sometimes just an excuse created to let myself off easily)
- Don't be distracted from the goal
Diet
Overall Goal : Eat More Wisely (Eat to Live)
Action Items :
- Recognise that "what I eat is what I am"
- Eat more vegetable and fruits
- Cook and bring food to the office again
- Eat ice-cream in moderation (to abstain completely will only bring about a rebound reaction down the road, so might as well eat a little bit from time to time...)
Work
Overall Goal : Be better at work
Action Items :
- Be more efficient
- No more procrastination
- Set reminders if need be to keep track of "unfinished business"
- Talk less and do more
Can't think of more targets I wish to achieve this year, but these are quite enough for the moment I believe.
Hopefully by setting down specific achievable targets I could help myself to see the way to achieving my aims.
Good luck Mingmei! Hope 2011 will be the year where I can learn to do things better and be a better person overall!
