Often said, if you fail to plan you plan to fail. For sure, Planning is half the work done.

2015 had been an engaged productive year for me in terms of personal as well as professional development. Time flies so soon and we are already in an entirely new year, 2016.

With New Year, umpteen ideas have popped up into my head. I find myself much motivated and determined to accomplish this New Year's diary with unprecedented adventures, widespread networking and of course selfless volunteering.

My Resolutions for 2016 are simple but sincere. I am committed to do what I have been doing more effectively and set some new goals as well.

Like in 2015 I have decided to:

Continue waste segregation at my house, composting the degradable byproducts

Plant a tree on my birthday join hands with parents for participating in plantation at their marriage anniversary

Avoid usage of polythene bags as far as possible

Abide myself by 3R principle: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle

Continue organizing campaigns for youth empowerment and Eco- Leadership Development

Volunteer in social and environmental events like community clean up

Establish Tunza Eco- network in new schools

Is anything new for 2016?

Of course, I have set some new targets for this New Year.

I would love to focus on researching and paper/article publication in this year. I have realized there are many aspects in my rural societies which are in dire need of limelight to get addressed like girls being untouched during their monthly periods, indigenous techniques to filter water, local initiatives for child friendly/eco- friendly schools etc. I would be having a deep analysis of the issues (be it problems or solutions) and try to disseminate the information to new audiences.

Climate change being a topic of my deep interest, I will be following the climate change discussions, intersession and negotiation progress throughout the year.

Moreover, I couldn't meet one of my goals for 2015 which was working for wildlife conservation. This year I am committed to meet this objective and organize a campaign where children can get empowered with wildlife and its importance.

Last but not the least, I will be saving money from my part time teaching job and invest it in volunteering and social aids recalling installation of solar panel at my house last year with my savings.

Of course these all are not the limitations of my will, I will be doing the best I can to make this year much productive and impactful by endless learning, sharing and contributing.
