Everyone Says It
Everyone makes a resolution and everyone says "new year, new me" but 80% fail by February. We all want to grow as people but don't want to put the work in to actually make it happen.
Make yours happen
- Write it down & put it somewhere you can see it
- Make sure it's something you're motivated about
- Build it into your daily routine
It's very simple; however, people typically fail because they don't have the drive toward these goals they actually need. They want to put it off and then eventually they forget about it or decide "I guess I'll try again next year."
My Resolution
I have one big resolution and a number of smaller ones.
Small Goals
- Find happiness within myself (a simple sounding one but one I have trouble with at times. I focus too much on material items & other people to bring me happiness)
- Post on Steemit every other day
- Hang out with new people (I'm an introvert)
Big Goal
My goal is something I've wanted to do for a very long time but haven't done. I want to grow my new YouTube vlogging & tutorial channel and stream on Twitch regularly. It's a thing of procrastination for me as I work full time and go to school full time. These are excuses...they're valid excuses that take up a lot of my time but none the less they are excuses. I'm planning on posting three videos a week and streaming at least three times a week every single week.
How Long Can I Do This?
I'm honestly not sure how long I can keep this resolution up for. I've never been one to make resolutions in the past but I figure this is something I would really like to do so I might as well make my first one this year. It's a big one but I feel like it will be a lot of fun and it will help me with my editing & videography skills.
What Are Your New Year's Resolutions?
Let me know in the comments. I'm interested because this is the first year I've had them for myself so I'm wondering what yours are. Also, do you like them or do you find them to be ultimately useless?

The first and only time I've had a new resolution was way back in 2008... I was a teenager then, had just finished high but I was picking pockets at home a lot and someone I was beginning to do it outside as well.
I always wanted to have the flashy things that others around me had. I knew I had to stop the pocket picking before it got out of hand so I made a resolution to never take money that doesn't belong to me again and then I prayed to God to open my eyes to money making opportunities, where I can actually work my own money.
In January 2009 I got a job as a receptionist in a small hotel and that was how I stopped picking pockets.
It's not just about making the resolution, it's about having the zeal and determination to actually make sure you're up to the task ahead.
I hope you find the strength to keep to your resolutions in 2018. Cheers and happy new year.

Beautifully said my friend. If you don't have that drive then your resolution doesn't mean anything. It's almost pointless or redundant. You have to actually want it not just wish for it. I hope that I have the strength to keep mine also my friend. Thank you so much for your story it really did speak volumes to me. Cheers, mate. Happy New Year.

Hey mate, first of all, did you made the thumnail by urself? Or you got it from google?
Anyways it looks just great.
Take it slowly with the youtube thing, promote yourself propertly and keep creating good content, bdw dtube is an amazing oportunity everyone should take..
And well this is all mate, have a good 2018, and stay strong :)

I didn't know you meant the thumbnail for this post haha my bad. I got it off google actually. I thought about doing some minor cosmetic changes & color changes but decided it looked good as it is so I kept it how it was just off google! I typically try to make my own thumbnails for YouTube & Steemit though!
I actually went on dtube and tried uploading there and it kept failing for some reason and I haven't had the time to troubleshoot it. Do you happen to know how to fix it off the top of your head?
I hope you have a good 2018 also, mate <3

Im not sure mate... anyways u did a cool post and the thumnail looks nice too.
Keep trying on dtube, try to solve it and well.. i think dtube has a lot of potential. I mean, is not like youtube, where u upload a video and if u dont have an audience, ur video will not be seen by any.
On dtube for sure it will be seen by some of us so... that's a bit oportunity atm.
Not sure what was ur trouble, but im sure u can fix it, or at least try to search some info :)))
See ya mate, happy new year :)

I troubleshot the issue and posted my first video on d.tube about 15 min ago! I wish I knew it would also post on steemit! I didn't realize that for some reason :(
I don't know if I should post on both YouTube & d.tube because my YouTube videos are 4k but d.tube caps at 480p so it's something I'm thinking about right now!
