Your New Year Resolutions For 2008?

Hi guys,

I believe that each and everyone of us have a great plan for 2008, but i will implore you to put all your predicaments and dilemma of 2007 to past. I believe that they (predicaments and dilemma) are just an obstacles that makes you to be more stronger.  Just try to be focused and determined.  I want you to put the below followings into consideration.  God has already bless me, and all my plans are going well as planned, so 2008 will be additional success to me.  Happy ile-ya lol and merry xmas in advance. Please try and stay out of trouble. 

1)  life is just a blank slate, what matters most is what you write on it.                 

2) The difference between the possible and the impossible is with the person.

3) Don't let things that are less important be at the expense of important things.

4) The price of success are; hard work, dedication, and unremitting devotion to what you want to see happen.

5) What you think of yourself is more important than what others think about you.

6) The moment you settle for less than you deserve, you get even less than you settled for.

7) Fail to plan is plan to fail.

It is the constant and determined effort that breaks down all resistance, sweeps away all obstacles.

Well I don't believe in this "New Year Resolution" stuff.
Just make sure you do the right stuff this new year! Don't make one yeye promise that you can't fulfil here!

which one be your wewe thing bro/sis?

@Skima,
You de work for ABC transport?
See your location. . lol

I learnt something recently, people are more serious about their resolutions by January - March, when they go further their zeal die out. and they go back to that which they promised themselves not to do. It is a syndrome called "never finish it"  syndrome.

Well I plan to work more on my voice,
Increase my relationship with God,
Go for my Masters,
Help the needy.

May God help me.

Out of my last year's resolution I fulfilled 70%.

How will you rAte me.

By His (God) grace and grace alone.
Start my own biz
Be more tolerant
Be submissive, am tooooo bossy.
Be more humble.

Rubbish! There is no such thing as a new year resolution. We all hypocritically stand in front of God on new year's day in churches and mosques and deliever our own versions of the new year budget as resolutions which by mid februray we have already forgotten we made such stupid promises to keep.

How many of us for donkey years past have made up our minds to stop smoking, fornicating, back bitting, cheat, reconcile with our families, stop drinking, hope to do very well in school, help to improve lives and probably find another fool proof strategy to woo more business clients and increase our potentials psychologially, spiritually, financially and mentally and end up repeating the same old mantra next year as if we didnt say it in 1989, 1996, 2001 and more memorably in 2007.

Why is only on the 31st of december we remember when to say those silly resolutions. The women would scream to God and within " oh i want to have that child at last or have another baby boy or give me a better boyfriend or make my marriage work or relationship" and the boys will scream out loud " Oh God let my business boom, let my car finally show this year, let my money show, let the society know i have arrived and a host of a million twaddles and rubbish they hope and wish to accomplish"

Well i have got news for all the dreamers and optimists. The cloud is not turning to pink on the 31st of december and the moon will not change to the sun on the first of january. Your nauseating boyfriend will still be around you, your cheating girlfriend will still arouse more boys attention, your sniveling mother inlaw will still harrass you, your pesky granny will not die and still hound you, your shares in the banks will still appreciate and depreciate, danfo and okada riders will still be a menace to the society, nepa will continue to haunt us, the roads will still be death traps, you wont stop smoking until the doctor waves a red flag about your lungs, you wont stop drinking until you pass out in a gutter, you wont stop cheating until your caught red handed and disgraced, you wont make more money until you draw up a business plan that is feasible and realistic and you wont stop going to miracle crusades because you have a fetish for going to such places to pray for get rich quick schemes and inshort, its another day in the life of an ordinary nigerian. So get over it and live your life the way you were living on october 14 and not thinking the sky will fall on october 15. It's just another day.


I can remember how i was under the cloud of those that paid much importance to this new year resolution garbage about 20 years ago and i kept on saying i would change and i would do this and that. Each passing year was worse off than the latter and until i realised that it wasnt necessary, things began to happen. Always expect the unexpected and most of the time it favours you when you don't place much importance to it. People would come out here and say you should have the will power, discipline and determination and spiritual help to make your resolutions come true but its all a load of crap. How do you determine within yourself to stop boozing, smoking and fornicating in 365 days and not falther and go back to your old crazy ways that you feel comfortable in? What will power makes you stop cheating, back stabbing, lying and trampling on other people's back to snatch every financial opportunity that comes your way? If your the owner of a petrol station and there is fuel scarcity, what will power prevents you from hiking the prices to make more money? But you will be the first to tell God and yourself on the 31st of dec, no more cheating and stealing! How laughable nigerians can be atimes;D If your a student tell me you wont attempt to settle any of your exams this semester or year or try and sleep with the favoured lecturer to gain that all desired 2:1 or 2:2  so as to be eligible to work in zenith?

Abeg so my new year resolution is to break up with more girls, booze and smoke more, rip more people off financially, climb the backs of other people till i get to the top, take no prisoners and trample on anyone that gets into my way of success, scheme and connive more and finally date the love of my life pilgrim 1 because it just another normal day in my life and in the lives of millions of Nigerians and it's pathetic for you to remotely deny it.

Life is too short so play more!

 Less work,  more vacations!
