New Year's resolutions

New Year's resolutions

We all make promises to improve ourselves at the beginning of each New Year.

The beginning of every year brings in new hope and enthusiasm. We look forward to a new beginning and hope things to improve from the last year.

New Year brings in new promises. Hence, it can’t hurt to plan ahead for your 2017 New Year's resolutions which will help you make a better person. 

 

The problem is that sometimes we can't keep the promises we do, then we feel dissapointed,and therefore the success rate with New Year's resolution is actually poor. In order to make your New Year's resolution a success, try to make a realistic promise and set small targets at first.

 

 I invite you to write your New Year's resolutions in your Christmas ornament and try to keep them all along the year.

Kiss the Sky

by Jason Derulo

Don't know when we going home
But your friend could come along
I'm thinking / dancing why not, baby, why not?
I'm looking good, don't wanna blink
Mary tells me I'm a king / prince
I'm thinking why not, baby, why not?

Oh, take a sip, take a sip now
Take it down, take it down then / now
Say ah, say ah, say ah, say ah
Oh, do your dance, do your dance / plan now
Sing it loud with me right now
Say ah, say ah, say ah, say ah

'Cause I believe we can fly / play now
Spread your wings and kiss the sky
Yeah babe, we can fly now
Spread your wings, we're miles away / high
So we can kiss the sky

My new girl headline the news
But my ex still knowing / coming through
And I'm thinking why not, baby, why not?
Ain't nothing gon' stop the swamp / funk
I'm gon' make you pop your trunk
I'm thinking why not, baby, why not?
