Happy New Year 2016! What are your resolutions for the new year?
The year 2015 is fast coming to a close,…only few days to go…
We will soon be welcoming a brand new year 2016…
Have you met the resolutions for this year 2015?
Are you keeping your resolutions or making new ones for the new year?
What are your resolutions and goals for the new year 2016?
It is good to have resolutions to achieve our dreams.
Have you decided on what exactly you want to achieve?
And made action plans on how you will accomplish your goals?
Are you ready to make your wishes, resolutions and dreams come true?
Have you made sure your goals are realistic and can be achieved with your
capabilities, so that you will not be forever chasing impossible dreams or
wasting your precious time just daydreaming?
Do you remember that just having dreams and goals will not help us to get
what we want, if we do not work on them?
Are you prepared to put in efforts to turn them into great achivements and
successes you can be very proud of?
Are you ready to constantly take action, overcome obstacles and not give up
in order to accomplish your goals?
How has 2015 been for you?
Hope it has been good for you.
2015 has not turned out to be a good year for many people…
Not many people would have forseen the drastic drop in oil prices.
Normally, a reduction in world oil prices would be good and many
people have strongly wished for it to happen, thinking that things
will become cheaper and the cost of living will be also be reduced.
But how many of us were actually able to see that the slow down
of the huge Chinese economy would result in the very sudden and
unexpected devaluation of the Chinese currency?
And be prepared to handle the problems caused by the very strong
US dollar, which resulted in massive losses of revenues from many
oil exporting countries and depreciation in many other currencies?
Now we have a bad situation where we got what a lot of people had
been wishing for, which is, low oil prices but the world’s economy is
not doing well and the living costs for many people all over the world
are going up instead of down.
Sometimes, we must be careful about what we wish for because we can
get too big doses of what we want and end up much worst off.
Perhaps one good thing that has happened in 2015 is the US has stopped
printing money and flooding the markets with USD… and has decided to
increase the interest rate very slightly, without upsetting the world stock
markets and aiming to keep inflation under control.
It is still possible to make money from shares, if you have good tactics.
This is not going to be a long discussion on shares.
If there is enough interest, more information and sharing about effective
shares trading and investment strategies can be made available for more
discussions in new posts.
2015 has also seen many violent terrorist activities, civil wars and natural
disasters such as earthquakes, landslides, fires, floods and big storms…
Many of us will be really looking forward to 2016 and hoping that it will be
a very good and much better year for all of us.
Let us work together and be united against terrorism, regardless of our skin
colours, race or religions, to stop attacks from terrorists and to also greatly
reduce if not elinimate racial riots and clashes.
If we want to achieve our goals, we should not feel depressed by what has
happened and just put the blame on other people for our troubles or hesitate
to take action to solve our problems.
If we want to improve our lives, we should always strive to do better in what
we want to do, to achieve our goals in life. We must not give up when we face
problems but take action to overcome all the obstacles and make progress by
constantly moving forward to always get closer to our ultimate goals.
To achieve success, we should always remember and be inspired by the famous
quotes by some very successful people…
“Don’t compare yourself with anyone in this world…if you do so, you are insulting
yourself” by Bill Gates.
“Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverence, learning, studying, sacrifice
and most of all love of what you are doing or learning to do.” by Pele.
“Those who dare to fail miserably can achieve greatly” by John F. Kennedy.
Although many people say money is very important, we should not forget that time
is also very valuable and we should not waste this very precious commodity.
What do you think is more important, time or money? Which do you want more of?
