I've mine, what’s yours?


Hari Om Kids –

Wish you all a very Happy, safe and a cheerful New Year!

As we begin the Year, I was looking for a good topic to initiate our discussion. What else could be better than something that almost everyone starts off the year with – The ‘New Year resolutions’?

Do you know how many actually set New Year resolutions each year? More interestingly, do you know what percentage of them drop off after the initial month? Let us belong to the small percentage who actually make it through.

Here are some interesting statistics, published in the Journal of Clinical Psychology.



On a similar note, Swami Vivekananda once said:

“Talk to yourself at least once in a Day.. Otherwise you may miss a meeting with an EXCELLENT person in this World”

If this is any indication, the above quote is one of my resolutions. So, what's yours?

Take a minute to share your thoughts and/or resolutions before tomorrow. Since we live in such a connected world, let’s leave last year’s most common excuse "Oh, I didn't check my email" behind us. I want to see everyone's response.

See you all at Balavihar!

  4. One of my resolutions is to take time in my day to stop for about 10 minutes and just not think about anything. Also, I've come up with a resolution to cycle my frequent sayings, so I don't say "Ain't nobody got time fo' dat" very often.
