It's officially 2025, and if I am not mistaken, today is the 4th day in January. The year is progressing, and I believe that now is the right time to start implementing whatever plans we have for the new year because in the blink of an eye, we will be counting down to another New Year celebration.
The deep reflection I had about my journey throughout 2024 opened my eyes to so many things I hadn't paid attention to while others, I felt it was insignificant but actually meant something. The playback helped me pick out a few things I made mistakes with, and I told myself, George, you can do better than this."
It's certain that we all want improvements; we want every New Year to be better than the previous, and for this reason, we have to do things differently, but we will never know the changes to make if we can't identify the problems from the previous year.
In response to the Hivelearners prompt, there are definitely things I did last year that I won't be doing in 2025. These things are definitely part of my New Year resolution, and it tells you how important they are to me.
The top on my list is overlooking things that I shouldn't. I know this might sound positive and negative, but I am speaking from the positive angle. I am someone who tries to avoid trouble as much as possible, and that's how far my experience in life has taught me, but then I realized that overlooking everything people do that doesn't sit well with you isn't a good thing.
Avoiding unnecessary troubles was my excuse, and I still do not want them. I just think it's necessary to condemn some act or rebuke people for wronging me instead of keeping silence. I realize that these people might not even know that they are doing what's wrong towards me, and because I am quiet, they keep doing these things, which automatically pisses me off.
It's different when I can avoid these people, but there are those I can't avoid, so it's best to speak up.
Another thing is working on my communication with people because I really messed up last year. For instance, it takes me days to reply to messages, especially when I am not online at the time the message was sent to me.
I know how this makes me feel when someone does the same to me, but whenever I make up my mind to do something differently, I end up still doing the same. I intend to take my communication with people seriously this year and believe I can make improvements on that.
Taking opportunities seriously is another thing I intend to do this year because I slacked a lot in 2024. I missed out on different opportunities last year and really appreciate those who scolded me for that. I was called out by a few friends, and they made me realize that these opportunities won't always show up.
So in 2025, grabbing opportunity is one of my biggest priorities. I want to make the most of our year and be happy always.
Aside from these things, I intend to learn more about cryptocurrency. Honestly, this has been in my yearly resolution for a few years now, but I always end up busy with other things. In fact, I chatted with one of the crypto experts I know on Hive, and he was ready to put me through, but I just couldn't keep up.
Cryptocurrency is changing lives every day, and I want to be part of those people who will benefit from it someday. I know it's not a small journey, and I am willing to learn as much as I could this year. I believe that with all these changes, 2025 will be an amazing year. Nothing is certain, but at least I have to give my best.
All Image Are Mine.

You are right; it's not every time you keep silent when people do something wrong to you. Sometimes it's better to call those people out; sometimes some people intentionally hurt you because they know you don't like trouble.
I like the last part of your comment because that's definitely what's happening. They are always like, George won't get angry so let's do whatever it is we want to do.
It's really annoying and I wish that people can learn to respect others 'intentions to seek peace always.
Not everyone wants peace
I used to give the exact same excuse like you...*"I don't want any trouble" but that ended up leaving me open and vulnerable to attacks and premeditated antics. Now I know better and I am not afraid to confront any nonsense...but from a stand point of love. It is now left for the person to either heed or leave.
I also need to do better with my communication level this year. I know I do good to some level but I would like to do much better.
Correcting them with love is one important thing and I intend to do my best at that. I must have things under control when making my points known so both parties can understand themselves quite well.
For communication, I believe that we will make a lot of progress as well..
bro, no cap, avoiding troubles is the best thing to do o. But then, it good to note that, somethings are not to be avoided
That's right man, avoiding troubles is very important but we mustn't expose ourselves to the point of being taken advantage of or being disrespected by others.
