Alright. I've got more of Mindset Resolutions for the coming year. I've always had those which are more concrete (and golly, is it hard to get any of them accomplished) and more detailed. But this time, I realized I want to start with the mindset. I cannot ever manipulate myself to do things which are not according to my principles, beliefs, and heartbeats (yeah).
1. The value of a yes by saying "No."

Okay. I'm not a Yes-man or whatever. I don't say yes to things just because I feel bad turning requests down. I do it because it REALLY is totally fine with me. I get hyped up when I feel like I'm being productive, I don't feel bad about myself. Not because I wanna show off that I can do it, but because I just wanna do it. I feel like I am not messing with my schedule or something. Saying yes to stuff mean that I really wanna do it. But recently, through the heartbreaks along these Yes's, I've been seeing that I CANNOT do everything. Try as I might, I am up to a certain threshold alone, and beyond that is the breaking point.
If I learn how to say "No.", I would be able to get exposed to more opportunities and more chances for other things.
2. Do not supervise people, launch them.
This has made a great impact in my thinking and strategizing. I just heard of this two days ago, and I decided that I will include it in one of the things I wanna develop in myself. Being in a role of coaching and helping youth to become leaders put me in difficult "circumstances" and "challenges" of handling people. This one came from one of our global leaders in our company. I must say this will come in very handy.
3. If you have a vision, discipline yourself...

I have heard of different advice on being disciplined, but no one has ever phrased it the way that made me so compelled I want to change abruptly. And this simple line with simple words totally nailed it. It made me scared and guilty thinking that I've been wasting resources relative to myself that make the paths to my visions and dreams blurry and crazy. So, here is a good meal for the soul.
This is the first time I wrote a resolutions list which contains only mindset on stuff. And I think it's good. We have to start with our thinking, we have to start with our hearts. We might try our hardest to reach our goals in life, try to improve ourselves, but unless we start with the core of it all, we might never be able to establish ourselves in the changes we want to see ourselves in.
