Each year optimists make New Year’s resolutions setting out goals for themselves and hoping to achieve those goals by the end of the year.
The year is almost over and The Tembisan went out to find out if some of the set goals were achieved by Tembisans.
Melta Nemuramba said: “I did not achieve things I planned to do this year. I closed down my shop because my other business was suffering. I left my shop in the wrong hands. People are not honest, not reliable nor do they want to work therefore my employees destroyed my business in 2018. It is tough running more than one business at a time. Next year I want to do community work helping vulnerable children in the society. I hope to cook for children who do not have food in their homes and I hope t
Innocent Simango said: “I had goals at the beginning of the year. I wanted to attain self-purification. As a child I grew up with social phobia.

To those who did not manage to go to school this year look out for bursaries and scholarships for 2019.
Timothy Mabokatshaba said: “The resolutions I made for 2018 never materialised. I planned to marry my wife (Baby Mama). That planned goal failed because I could not find a stable job. All I did were short contracts. I had three jobs in 2018 working for labour brokers and they were not enough for me to save for a wedding.
