Resolutions Old and New

nicopernicusnicopernicus Registered User regular
Now's the time to think about goals. Goala you made this year (and maybe didn't keep if you are like me), and goals for the year to come. Here are a few of mine...
Last year - Read fifty books (yay), exercise more (iffy), buy a house (yay)
This year - Talk less, smile more, exercise five days a week, finish doctorate, not fail at being a father (first kid due in June)
Whatcha got?

    Infinite Jest?

    Me, I've made some plans to sort my life out, working on some new hobbies to see where they take me, but as someone who always sabotages this by finding any way to stop and give up, my goal is simply to keep moving, no matter what I'm doing.

    I like New Years resolutions, I think they are positive!

    I am going to try and exercise more, get my 5k under 30mins, get more flexible. Meditate more. Keep pushing myself to try but be okay with not being the best.

    I am gonna try to start exercising a bit because I enjoy eating garbage too much and am getting a little bit of chub

    I am also gonna work more on writing which I severely neglected this year

    I'm also going to try and be better with regards to video game budgeting. A $20 game here and a $10 game there add up quickly.

    Ooof, I have a big year of resolutions ahead of me. This year I'd like to:

    Eat better! (more fruit & veg, less carb)
    Lose 30 lb's (1 lb per week should have me completing this around October, giving me a few weeks in the year to use on splurging and stuff)
    Get my orange belt in Krav Maga (will help with the weight loss!)
    Spend less (I have a number in mind that's the max amount I want my credit card bills to total every month)

    My resolution is to disengage from unwinnable internet """""debates""""" instead of banging my head against brick walls, especially on Facebook. It'll be better for my blood pressure.

    Also to make use of Facebook's 'see less of X' feature.

    My resolutions last year were to write a spec pilot (accomplished), write and submit a fellowship spec (accomplished), write and direct a short (yuppers), get my credit score above 650 (cleared 700), and drink less (uhhh...). 4 out of 5 is pretty dang okay.

    This year I want to finish my feature script and get it submitted places, try to get an agent, write another spec pilot, write and direct another short, and get my 5k time back down to a respectable number.
