The Importance Of New Year, New Me

Improved Essays
The majority of people start their new year with a list of resolutions. “New Year, New Me” is often said each time a new year comes. The reason for that is because every new year is a new chapter in our lives, and everything in the past that we were looking forward to changing can be changed or improved in a new year and we can add set that as a goal to become one of our new year's resolution. Setting goals can be very important. One of the reasons setting goals is a must is for you to point out what you want to do and not feel like you are just floating throughout the year. If you don’t set goals or think about them, this will leave you wondering what you actually did and accomplished the year before. Setting goals and making a list of resolution …show more content…
Motivation is also very important while trying to achieve your goal.

One of the most important things to keep in mind is to not give up or feel hopeless and to keep on trying no matter what if you did not reach and fulfill your goal. As long as you know that you tried, then keep on doing it because aiming and attempting to achieve a goal is the key to accomplish it, and right before when you achieve it or at least achieve some of it you will feel satisfied and proud of your own achievements or the fact that you tried your best. Goals make you feel that you are in control of your life. Goals are not all the same. Some of your goals might be about your health and to get in shape or about changing your lifestyle by trying to reduce the amount of waste you generate by living the “less waste lifestyle” or to even go vegan.

What I mean by that is to learn more about it and know where I can get the right food also to have a balanced meal. I also aim to live a less waste lifestyle by producing less waste and to aid my home, planet earth. I also hope to encourage people to follow that lifestyle because one person makes a difference. In order to achieve this, I have a made my personal project about it. For my 3 year goal, I will be hopeful of entering a university I have been thinking about for a long time (insha'Allah). I will make sure to work hard and be the best I can be in order to achieve this goal. Finally, I have been thinking of my 10-year goal for a while since its years after, however, I might still be in university, so this goal will fall in my business category. My goal is to start a business with my sister. The business that we are planning to start is a vegan shop with healthy goods and sell reusable products to replace disposable ones in order to motivate people to produce less waste and save our home. The plane is to first deliver the goods then open a shop as the business grows.

    Scholarly Writing Style

    Over 15 years ago, Robert Nash (2011) developed a new academic writing style called Scholarly Personal Narrative (SPN). For the first time in academics the unacceptable use of the ‘subjective I [me]’was acceptable in scholarly writing. Before SPN only the ‘objective they [we]’ was appropriate for research because scholars believed that only experts could support an agreeable or disagreeable topic. Nash (2011) wanted SPN to become, “a respectable research genre in higher education, particularly in the professional schools” (p. 4), so he wrote his first book, Liberating Scholarly Writing: The Power of Personal Narrative (2004).…

Goals are what you think you deserve; you're setting goals, because you want to be more, DO more than what everyone else thought you would.…
