Happy New Year 2012! I wanted to thank you all for reading this blog during 2011.<\/p>\n

Have you already got your new year\u00b4s resolutions for 2012? I do. It is interesting to see how we keep doing it year after year, and they tend to be the same resolutions! I have usually come across new year\u00b4s resolutions<\/a> in humorous articles,\u00a0blog entries<\/a>\u00a0or in everyday conversations.\u00a0This must be a good topic for\u00a0<\/span>coaching<\/a>, and marketers and other professionals also have their own\u00a0<\/span>new year\u00b4s resolutions<\/a>\u00a0too.<\/span><\/p>\n

I wondered how many of you have ever kept all\u00a0your New Year\u00b4s resolutions and how many of them keep repeating every year.<\/span>They have been around for a\u00a0long time.\u00a0<\/span>I often find them quite ambitious. For instance, it is already\u00a0hard to\u00a0lose weight – or not to gain any more! A bit of stress is often enough to make us\u00a0pile on the pounds!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For 2012, financial resolutions seem to be on top, due to fear according to this survey<\/a>. Gym membership is now seen as an unnecessary item. I agree. There are so many parks in London\u00a0that I guess I can just jog or, simply, walk. Here\u00b4s my own list. What\u00b4s yours?<\/span>
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Be more positive.<\/strong>
    \n\"New<\/li>\n
  2. Progress my career in SEO\/ link building.<\/strong>
    \n\"New<\/li>\n
  3. Stay fit and healthy. This is a hard one.
    \n\"New\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n
  4. Learn a new skill or\u00a0learn more about a skill I already have, eg, cooking.
    \n\"New\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n
  5. Laugh and smile more!
    \n\"New\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I wish you all a happy and prosperous New Year 2012! Hope to see you next year.<\/p>\n
