MANILA — President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. said that his New Year’s resolution was to spend more time with his family in 2024.
“My New Year’s Resolution is simple: to spend more time with my family because I don’t get to see them since we are all busy. I think having time to spend with my family brings such relief, and it cools my head and my mind becomes clear,” Marcos said in his vlog.
The Chief Executive also shared some tips with the public on how they can make their own improvements for the new year.
“For example, let’s not think of big New Year’s resolutions. Let’s start with ourselves, with our families,” he said.
“Let’s not be late for work; be on time. Being barely passable should not be a norm; quality work should be the norm instead. Do not leave your work on hold, and don’t leave it until you can be proud of it,” he added.
Marcos said New Year’s resolutions can also help in the collective improvement of the country.
“The promises we make to ourselves regarding discipline, the improvement of our abilities, and our self-improvement can be helpful to our country,” he said. (Adrian Parungao © Philippine Daily Inquirer)
