A Prelude to Your New Beginning

A Prelude to Your New Beginning

We have just one more day until the year ends, but our hope to begin anew is timeless. Many of us had a bucket list for the year—some completed every item with gusto, while others fell short. Let's not dwell on what we didn’t achieve. Instead, let’s carry those dreams forward into the New Year’s resolutions yet to be written.

We all carry small, quiet desires, too. Maybe you wanted to try a new cuisine—you’re not too late. Order it tonight. Perhaps you longed to wear a new colour—walk into a store and buy it. Today.

Some of us planned to start walking regularly in 2025, but procrastination won. That’s okay. Just put on your shoes and walk for a few minutes. You’ll feel happier simply for having started.

Maybe you meant to apologise to someone you care about, but pride held you back. Pick up your phone, send an advanced New Year’s wish, and say you’re sorry.

Perhaps you dreamed of a new look. Walk into the salon, tell them how you’d like to feel, and leave with a fresh glow—and a photo to remember it.

We are human. We all have unfulfilled desires. Let’s not wait for the “right” time to begin. The right time is always now, the moment you choose to start.

A year can end with a new beginning. Let that beginning last forever.

Listen, Understand and Respond

Listen, Understand and Respond Most of the time, people listen to respond rather than to understand. By the time the other person finishes speaking, the listener is often already formulating a response. Let’s explore what happens in such situations. While listening, we may be trying to engage our logical brain to recall our memories and creativity for a response, or we may be accessing our emotional brain to defend ourselves against what is being said. For example, if one person talks about ways another could improve, the listener might offer excuses such as a lack of time, resources, or support. Alternatively, they may bring up personal emotions, like health or family issues. These reactions often occur while the other person is still speaking, leading to a decreased understanding and an increased eagerness to defend one’s position. During this type of conversation, the listener may appear restless, exhibiting a lack of eye contact or head nodding. In such interactions, th...
