New Year is the time to remember all the memories we share, all the fun things we did, all the secrets we poured out for but never regret the follies of the past as we reminisce about the year gone by. Now that time came to celebrate with all of you.

 

Wish you and your family a Happy and Prosperous New Year 2014. May God make you more knowledgeable in the coming year and give you more prosperity than ever.

 

For a happy New Year, just stick to some simple and basic rules. Have faith in yourself and your abilities. Count your blessings before you cry on your misfortunes. Learn to take each day one at a time. Create opportunities for yourself as quitting is never an option. Above all accomplish all you take under your wings and never abandon without completion.

 

 

In the year 2013 I published 123 blog posts, shared a lot of article links on Twitter and Facebook, built many Windows Phone applications, organized & participated in various events & sessions. As result of all these activities, I received various awards & gifts from organizations like Microsoft, Nokia and Telerik. Really, this year was a blessings for me because in 2013, I got my Surface RT, a Nikon DSLR, one Samsung Focus, one Lumia 920 and one Lumia 1020. Thanks to Microsoft, Nokia and Telerik for providing me opportunities and building an easy path to grow in my career.

 

 

At the last, I want to say:
 
Thanks to those who hated me, because they made me a stronger person.
Thanks to those who loved me, because they made my heart bigger.
Thanks to those who were worried about me, because they let me know that they cared about me.
Thanks to those who left me, because they made me realize that nothing lasts forever.
Thanks to those who entered my life and never left, because they made me know who I am.
And my special thanks to all my friends, who supported me throughout the year 2013.

 

 

My new year resolution will be publishing more and more articles, tutorials for the developer community; more sessions in local UG meetings, more Windows Phone & Windows 8 Store (RT) applications and a chance to attend the MVP Global Summit this time. Seriously, I don’t want to miss it again. Lastly, thank you once again for reading and following my blogs. Without your continuous support and feedback it would be quite difficult.

 

Please drop a line below with your new year resolution, if you want them to share with the community. Till the time, enjoy your special moments and have a Happy and Prosperous New Year with your friends & family.
