New Year’s Eve, we meet again! I feel like it was just a few weeks ago that I was getting on the boat to Alibag to welcome 2012. Although December 31st tends to be quite hyped up, I am looking forward to a low-key night later. So long as I am with good friends, elaborate plans & grand celebrations are irrelevant.
Looking back at the last 12 months, 2012 has been a great year. For starters we survived an apocalypse…surely that’s worth celebrating ;)! At the start of the year, I had set some resolutions. Some I successfully ticked off, whereas others became less of a priority as the year went on. While specifically outlining my goals did motivate me to some extent, I am taking a different approach for 2013. Instead I plan to focus on a single & broader resolution:
Step out of my comfort zone
Although I wouldn’t say I’m partiuclarly in rut, I do have a tendency to gravitate towards routine, comfort & habit. I’m almost certain that stretching my limits both mentally & physically will bring about new opportunities, positive changes, and overall self-growth. If anything, these make the initial anxiety and fear behind exploring unfamiliar territory all the more worth it.

Maybe it’s the optimist in me speaking typing, but I have high hopes for 2013. Wishing you & your family all the best for the year! Whether or not you’re in for a cray cray night later, I hope it’s a great one! And if not, you have 365 nights ahead of you to make up for it in 2013 .
What are your NYE plans?
What are some of your resolutions for 2013?
Happy New Year lady!!
I hope it’s a wonderfully blessed year!
I love, love, love your goal about stepping out of your comfort zone. I relate that to trying new things, because I really would like to be fearless this year!
Cheers to being fearless :)!
I quite literally used the same someecard in my post today
Love that one haha. Happy new year! And I think it’s great to be optimistic about 2013!
Someecards are always so spot on :D!
Love that you’re so hopeful about the upcoming year, and love your goal of stepping outside your comfort zone even more – that’s probably an approach that I could adopt myself. I don’t usually make any resolutions because I don’t like the pressure and hype, so instead I’ll just keep plugging away at working on any aspect of my life that I think needs improvement
As for tonight, I’m thinking a movie and some firework watching are on the agenda.
Happy New Year, Khushboo! <3
I love the idea of finding ways to improve your life as opposed to change it! Happy New Years to you too :)!
My night is definitely going to be of the low-key type as well…hope you have a great one Khushboo!
Low-key sounds ideal- hope you enjoyed it :)!
stepping out of my comfort zone is something I really really want to keep doing as well. have a great NYE!
Happy 2013 to you, Alex!
WOOO! Hooray for stepping outside your comfort zone and making 2013 your year to shine! Can’t wait to see all the adventures!
Happy New Year to you Khushboo!!
Hope your 2013 is off to a great start, Alexandra :D!
Cheers to stepping out of the comfort zone!! No crazy plans for me tonight. I hope to be very low key!
Low key or not, hope you had a great NYE!
Happy new year!! I love your blog – i get so much motivation from it
Thanks so much Abi…and happy new year to you too!
I love your goal for 2013! I definitely need to step out of my comfort zone too. Happy new year!
Have a great 2013, Tara
Happy New Year! You have a great list of goals!
My main goal for 2013 is to make it a better year than 2012
There’s no reason why it won’t be…all the best, Jenn
Stepping out of our comfort zones, YES!
Let’s do this! Happyyy 2013 again!
Oh it is ON
That’s a great resolution, and one that I can totally relate to. It is very hard for me to step out of that comfort zone, but I think I’m starting to. Here’s to 2013!
May 2013 be uncomfortable (in a pleasant way) for both of us, Natalie :)!
I love your resolution! I need that one too–I gravitate toward the comfortable as well, yet I have so much fun and enjoy it so much when I step out and try/do/see/eat new things! I’m all for concepts rather than specifics as NYE goals–I do better with shorter-term goals, since there’s room to adjust, abandon and rethink them when they’re on a smaller scale.
Adjust, abandon and rethink- I love that, Allie! So much changes over a course of year, so naturally goals will too!
Happy New Year! I think 2013 will be a good one too… lucky 13, right?
I am kinda glad new years day dIdnt fall on a Friday this year ;)!
My biggest New Year’s resolution is to do one thing a day that makes me happy. Life’s too short not to enjoy every moment
I couldn’t agree more…it might sound selfish but our own happiness should always come first!
Happy new year K. The best new years are those where you hangout with good friends. I didn’t get thru most of my resolutions either, but this year I better get to greece, I hope.
I hope you do make it to Greece this year…or at least somewhere equally amazing :)!
Hope you had an awesome 2012 NYE!!! Sounds like a great goal for 2013!
Thanks Jess…happy new year to you!!
Happy New Year, my dear friend! I’m feeling great vibes for the upcoming year as well. I mean, it’s lucky number 13, right?
I hope you had a fantastic time with your friends last night! My evening was pretty low key, which felt just right. I was in my slippers at midnight! xoxo <3
Bringing in the new year in slippers sounds a heck more appealing than uncomfy heels :)! Have a great 2013, Sara!
Happy New Year K-boo! Here’s hoping 2013 is is as wonderful as you
Ah you’re sweet Sig :)! Hope 2013 is an amazing year for you…which I’m sure it will be especially with the baby on the way
