There is no new year without a new you.
To create a new year for me, it is my responsibility to be committed to my self-development. In the last contest, I had listed out my accomplishments and drawbacks. It will be at my disservice if I fail to get better or improve on the already existing ones. Below are my plans and goals.
Academics
- Read using the course outline as a guide.
Having the outline as a guide when reading enables a student to study ahead of every lecturer. This way, every topic will be covered before the examination commences. - Be present 1hr to every class lecture, test or Examination.
This can be attained if I learn to prepare early. Therefore, I will be always present for each class and wouldn't miss important pieces of information or stand a risk of being sent out by a lecturer. - Read one new thing daily.
Steemit community provides good content for people to consume daily. It will help broaden my horizon, make me think better and smarter as well. - Ask questions in class
This means that I need to pay more attention in class so I can note important questions I need to ask. Questions provide more knowledge and understanding of an interlocution. - Teach others
Peer-to-peer learning is what I am concerned with. It strengthens learning from both sides.
Spiritual Life
- Be more active in the service of God
I want to serve good by giving more to people this year. The Bible confirms that there are more blessings in giving than to receive. - Study more
Joshua 1:8 (NLT) says, "Study this Book of Instruction continually. Meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do." This is exactly what I will do. I believe that it will help me in a lot of ways.
Family Life
- Build bond
The best way to do this is by spending quality time with my family like doing fun activities such as watching movies, visiting fun parks, cinemas, being present on their special days and so forth. The goal is to build a strong bond.
Finance
- Gain More
I am planning to put my skills to the market to attract potential consumers. Creating value is the only way to earn more. - Manage my resources
Learning how to expend is pivotal as it will help me to channel limited resources to relevant places.
Conclusion
It is time to build a new me and these are my steps to doing just that and I am setting out with determination.
