Steely Resolve - A Distant Dream for many .

With the next New year fast approaching, i thought it's time to do some self introspection. If my self introspection is going to help you, why not make it a post ?
Do you remember the resolutions you made last New year ?
I know i ll get mixed responses for the above question. Most of you would say 'Yes' and a few would say 'NO'. And even those people with a positive reply wouldn't really have stuck to their resolutions.
The grassroots of the problem lies with us. We either find it difficult to comply with the resolutions or mercilessly forget it. A popular survey states that people do not want to be singled out, or in other words want to take up resolutions as a group and live up to it as a group. But is this possible ?? Not at all. Every man's resolutions is centered around his life and in most cases will not match with any other fellow being's resolution.
So in the first place stop having such notions. It is your life and you have to face it.
Secondly, keep reminding yourself that you have some resolution and you have to do justice to it. Finally, do not try to convince yourself when you aren't able to live up to it for a day. The reason is, convincing will become a habit and one fine day you will forget what you resolved.

In spite of such debates and suggestions, Steely resolve remains a distant dream for many.... even to the author of this blog.
