21 Commitments To Keep In 2021

 

Every year comes with its own bags and baggage. There is no particularly bad year neither is there any particularly good year. Each year is an admixture of the good, the bad, the ugly and the very ugly.

However, over time it has been observed that persons who set out at the beginning of each year some standards to commit to and do eventually commit to them, tend to have better experiences than those who just waltz through the year.

This is the reason we are suggesting to you to religiously keep these 21 commitments and see how the year turns out for you

They are

          -        He is your Senior Partner

          -        Make Him Number 1 in all you do

          -        They are your home base and your number one fans

          -        They will be there for you when everyone else has walked out

          -        show them love like your life depends on it because it sure does

3.      Commit to your Job/Career

          -        No job is to be taken lightly so long as bringing food into the house depends on it

          -        put in an honest day's job for an honest day's pay

5.      Commit to Truth and Honesty

          -        they are like twins, one cannot be found without the other

          -        honesty still pays great dividends

          -        both are adornments for a person of character

There you have them

Make them a daily diet and conquer the year

May the year bring you all that your heart and soul desire, and may you receive all your blessings, obvious or disguised, with grace and gratitude 

All the best
