One of the things i learnt is that people dont always get what they deserve, no matter how hard u work towards a goal it is possible that even the smallest thing might derail you.But however the only thing we can do is to work hard and to push through and if we do get obstructed in some way to try to recover from it as soon as to possible and in recovering to be better than we ever were before. So although i said in my last post that many people make resolutions and don't stick to them past the first week of January we must not make this so for ourselves.And i will not make this so for myself. My New Year's resolution for 2011 is to be better than i ever was at everything i do, a better student, a better person. This is a quote from the late Theodore Roosevelt
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”
I hope that for 2011 we will all strive to be better people and that it will not only be one of those things that we do for as a formality but that all year round we will remember this. Have a great one and Happy New Year.
