2026 New Year Reinvention

Every 31st of December comes with a disappointment of not getting rich, not losing weight, and not having what I always wanted to buy.

The last years felt different. It wasn't the bags I didn't buy that disappointed me, but the things I didn't do that disappointed me.

So instead of a list of the things I want to have, it's a list of feelings I want to feel. I want to feel alive—fully alive and live.

Last year was one of the best years for me. People were saying it was a rough year. In some sense, I guess it was. We had an earthquake in Bangkok for God's sake, floods, the start of the economic meltdown—personally, I did better than I did 37 years ago. And I did it all by myself. That made me proud and it made me happy.

This year, I will continue to focus on what I'm good at, learn what I don't, and slow down to really feel my feelings, think rationally, and act realistically.

This version of me will be better than the previous version, and that's the only New Year's resolution I have.
