DONT ALLOW THOSE DISTRACTIONS THIS TIME


Beginning of the year is the best time to rethink and assess your progress or otherwise in life. This is because you can use that time to effectively plan for the future and give yourself targets on what to achieve at some time in the year.
The New Year comes with a lot of noise, Christmas hangover, meeting old friends, fireworks and a whole lot of celebration for the season; before you know, the year had gone far without you making any headway.
This is a wake up call to all who are still basking in the euphoria of holiday celebrations; stand up and face the reality. Holiday activities of last year must have reduced by now but the distractions of current events such as fashion, news headlines, town gossip, latest tech gadgets etc,  are quickly taking over lives again, leaving  many with no space to sit back and reflect on the new year and future plans.
For me, I have made my resolutions, and set certain targets for myself although it still looks sketchy; I will let you in on my thoughts and resolutions soon. Please help me God

HOW DO YOU SEE THE NEW YEAR


This is New Year, like many people, we have been focusing our attention on activities and fireworks used in welcoming the New Year.  
Meditations and sober reflections are what supposed to follow the New Year; People should focus more on how to live better lives and check ways of contributing positively to their immediate environment which would help in making the world a better place.
