Resolution? Resolution!? We don’t need no stinking resolutions! Heh heh.

Seriously. Four times a year I list out my goals - a few short term, a few long term. About half are material goals (attacking debt and the like) and the others are focused on peace of mind. This is where my “Maigh date night” comes in. I buy myself flowers, take myself to dinner, maybe a movie. The list-o-goals is posted on the board in my kitchen as a reminder to keep running, try to do what’s good for my body, challenge my spirit of giving, cut down on kicking Joe in the nuts yadda yadda yadda.

That said, everything has already been laid out for the start of 2005…I just have to stick with it. Separately, I have a life “to-do” list that most of you have seen (or can see in the archives on Dec 2). I’ve decided I’m going to knock out a few of these items asap.

- I’ll enroll in a belly dancing class in Jan or Feb
- I’ll learn to snowboard by April

So there you have it. I recommend gazing at the Lululemon Success Chakra for a little inspiration. Speaking of inspiration and reading, if you don’t have the “mine, mine, mine” mentality that I do and you can surrender your books when you’re done with them, check out BookCrossing. Good karma. Related: send me your reading recommendations.
