To some people, New Year\u2019s resolution is tradition, in which a person decides to change an undesired habit or to improve life. It could be as big as finding one\u2019s partner, or as small as reading 20 books\u00a0a year…etc.<\/p>\n\n\n

Plant your \u201cnew year\u2019s flag\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Talking about setting goals for new year, the\u00a0online buzzword may\u00a0come to your mind,\u00a0\u201c\u7acbFlag<\/strong>\u201d. Literally, it means \u201cto plant\/set up a flag\u201d, referring to \u201cto say something exciting like building a target to achieve\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n

Have you reached all your goals set<\/strong> in the beginning of this year?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The usage of this \u201cflag\u201d is actually derived from game programming. \u201cFlag\u201d is the judgment basis,\u00a0or coding to trigger the key event of an ending. In its extending meaning, \u201c\u7acbFlag<\/strong>\u201d usually means \u201cyou pave the way for what will happen next\u201d. In most cases, what will happen is something we do not expect\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n

Make your New Year resolutions SMART<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

People come to conclusion that the more \u201cflags\u201d you set in the beginning of the year, the stronger reality will take a swing at your face(\u6253\u8138 d\u01celi\u01cen<\/strong>). Quite vivid, isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another popular saying is that when adults suddenly make up their mind to change lives, they will start to do two things: keeping fit(\u5065\u8eab ji\u00e0nsh\u0113n<\/strong>) & pick up a foreign language(\u5b66\u5916\u8bed xu\u00e9 w\u00e0iy\u01d4<\/strong>) again\u00a0(Yes, again).\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

Making New Year resolutions is a great thing to do. However, to avoid the reality smacking your face again,\u00a0you need to face up to yourself before setting up any \u201cflags\u201d\u00a0no matter how big your goal is. Make it SMART!\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n
