New Year’s Resolutions for our Comrades
Stop being afraid of hearing your own voice. Your main purpose as a communist is to be an educator. So speak up and educate.
Practice public speaking.
Stop leaving your politics at the door whenever you enter public spaces.
Study theory, history, language, personal, and technical skills to help mold yourself into a better revolutionary.
Learn to be fearless in taking up responsibility.
Practice self discipline. Cut out needless distractions that take up too much time.
Link up with comrades across the web, organize, and dedicate yourselves to spreading communist thought on the internet superhighway.
Build the party. Serve the people. Lead the charge.
Support popular movements, domestic and foreign.
Don’t blindly fear failure. Failure is your greatest teacher. You pick yourself back up and try something different.
The butterflies in your stomach isn’t fear, it’s excitement and determination. It’s your body preparing itself for whatever obstacle you face. Never let a butterfly be the reason for your complacency.
Complacency is the enemy of study. You must be tireless in your learning and teaching.
Guard against conceit. You think your methods are better than the ones from a different ideology? Go outside and prove it.
Most importantly: the struggle will always continue. No matter what concessions are granted. No matter what small victories are won. No matter how more bearable a bad situation becomes. Struggle under capitalism and imperialism will continue to exist. It is your responsibility to recognize that struggle. Once recognized, participate. Once you participate, win.
