As I write this on the eve of 20 December 2011 =), I contemplate on how much has changed in the pass year and probably the only regret was not to pen my thoughts down as much as I should (most probably due to the DPA & DID courses). Though I remember clearly big events like our wedding, graduations, family passing, and short getaway trips; I still wished that I penned down those moments. Well, better now than never I say.
The next one (1) year is going to be an interesting year indeed. This year I would be turning 28 and I am taking this as a significant year for self-development in total after neglecting myself and my self development in the previous years. This list has been 3 years in the making but I have to say that 2012 is the year I finally will be setting my focus in achieving these goals insyallah. My goals for 2012 are as follows and I intend to do a monthly tracker on these goals. Till then, below are my focuses for the coming year:
