Top 5 New Year's Resolutions Bound to Fail!

Its yet another year! No thanks to the Mayans.. but here's wishing you all, a very happy and prosperous new year! The very first thing that comes to everyone's mind when the clock strikes twelve (well other than grabbing someone and planting one!) is the feeling of a new beginning. I'm talking about the long hyped 'New year's resolution!' The resolve to do (or not do) something and sticking to it for err.. ever! But who are we kidding.. that never happens! So here's a list of some of the very common resolutions taken every year all around the world, which never really work! 

1. Lose weight!

Oh boy, how many times have we heard that one before.. It might be an impulsive decision taken probably due to bingeing during Christmas leading to an uncomfortably tight New year's party dress (oh the anguish!) or it maybe a long lost deep seated will to shed pounds which magically renews itself at the start of every year. Well, whatever the reason might be..Sorry folks, its not going to work!

2. Start writing a diary and well.. maintain it!

A relatively trivial resolution which turns out to become a guilty itch through out the year! (personally experienced) Usually initiated to keep record of 'moments' throughout the year, just because our memory is too weak to keep track of it. The pattern is mostly

Dear diary, 'this' - January

Dear diary, 'that' - February

Dear diary, blah don't really care- March

And so on... until 'Dear diary' collects an inch thick coat of dust and is stashed away with all the clothes that are too tight to wear.

3. Stop drinking/ smoking or any such habits of the same.

A common resolve taken mostly during a terrible hangover after the new year's eve. Which left you in mess and your washroom messier! But yeah, wait till the very next mid year festive season and suddenly you'll have no recollection of that debacle and chug away to glory!

4. Stop running behind girls/ boys and focus on work/ studies.

Ah, a noble oath taken. I respect the strong will of such people. But.. who am I kidding, any moron can do the 'math', look at the stakes and conclude that the equation's all wrong! :P

5. Cultivate a new hobby

Now this, some people might achieve.. the rest don't have to be disheartened. Folks, get this straight.. its just a different year, not retirement! You couldn't do much last year because you were busy. Well chances are, that you might be just as busy this year too! 

So readers, this is my small list of ' Top Epic Fail' resolutions. If you have any new ones.. please do share!

P.S: I resolve to write more often this year.. hope I stick to it. Although, 'often' is something subjected to change! ;)
