Resolved That .........

"RESOLVED THAT .........".

As a practicing Chartered Accountant and a qualified Company Secretary, I have drafted and finalised many a resolution for my clients. The resolutions always begin with 'Resolved That' and at times also have the words - 'Further Resolved That'.

This is new year eve and a time to think about new year resolutions. Thank God, that I do not have to draft and finalise resolutions to those multitude of souls who take upon themselves to undertake some resolutions at the beginning of every new year and then it is only a matter of time the resolve peters out. How many times have you resolved to lose weight and ended up losing patience instead? How many times have you decided to make your life miserable by going on a strict diet? How many times have you resolved and then broken the resolve in the next month/week/day?

Well, the right time to make a resolution to make any changes to self is NOW. You do not have to wait for the grand date of 1st January. Want to make a resolution? Lets have an old year resolution. Make one today, the day you read this. 

If you want to sustain the resolution, involve at least one buddy who will not laugh at you but will empathise with you. If you cannot do it alone, together you both can, even if it is only you who has made the resolution. For what are friends for if they cannot boost your morale against the upward improvements that you seek for yourself?

A resolution for myself? One that I will not break? Just want to be a better person, a better human being. Hope this is one resolution that I don't have to break.....ever! Just need a buddy to give me the support .... or have I to go it alone?

Need your critical comments. 

Happy New Year!
