A Vague List of Goals.
*Write out more concrete goals.
*Exercise more. A lot more.
*Stop eating so much junk food.
*Learn to enjoy black coffee.
*Read more books.
*Include some books that are not fiction (or fiction-like non-fiction).
*One word: Budget.
*Do things that I wouldn't normally do.
*Volunteer.
*Random acts of kindness.
*Stop and smell the proverbial roses.
*Listen to music - while doing nothing else - just listening.
*Work harder.
*Let go.
*Take pictures & figure out a way to access a darkroom.
*Get a new hobby.
*Listen.
*Be thankful.
*Fulfill goals: keep them all year (and beyond).
I hope that is not your New Years resolution list.

I really dont like New Years resolutions, because they always are broken. I think if it in terms of life-changing events, because if you break them you have gone nowhere fast.

Posted by: SonofThunder at January 8, 2006 11:36 PMI'm afraid of listening to Dave Ramsey - but only because I know he's right.
Golf? As my old friend Winston Churchill once said, "Golf is an ineffectual attempt to direct an uncontrollable sphere into an inaccessible hole with an instrument ill-adapted to the purpose."
That, and I'm not a lesbian.
Golf comment...I so want to respond to that...but I will keep my mouth shut right now and look like an idiot rather than opening it and removing all doubt.
Seriously, I know what you're talking about and yes, the LPGA has got a bad rep because of some of them, BUT it's still a great sport.
Dave Ramsey...try it, you'll have more spendable money this time next year than you think possible, you'll have more of what you do want and find that you didn't want or need the stuff you just spent money on spontaneously before, and....well, just give it a shot. I happen to know a family up there that never finished the course that I'm sure he'd be willing to let you have the course. They even go to the same church.
