It's that time of year - the time when celebrate another year gone by, party way too hard, wake up the next morning, and vow to change our ways.

Or something. What are all of your hopes, dreams, and goals for the next year? Are you doing anything about them now?

I have three myself:

1) Remove the accursed popcorn ceiling texture from every room in my house.
2) Skydive.
3) Get in good enough shape to cosplay as Kratos for Otakon 2008.

To those ends, I am

1) Engaged in a fierce battle with the popcorn in the office and guest bedroom.
2) Saving money :P
3) Biking to work instead of driving, running regularly, and doing yoga (that shit WORKS, man.)

Post your resolutions and discuss, post why you aren't making any, or post about your resolutions from last year and to what extent you kicked their asses.

My New Year's resolution is simple.

1.) Declutter stuff that I no longer need.
- I was able to sell my set of manga in the first 2 weeks of January. I'm planning to read it in digital.
- I was able to throw old sketchpad and sketchbooks. It's always fun to see my old drawings
and check how much I've improved but it no longer serves me.


2.) Save a lot of money
- I'm in a good start because of selling pre-loved items
- I was able to minimize my unnecessary Starbucks coffee purchases to just 2 last January.

I've made 2 pretty simple, but still requiring effort resolutions.
  • 1st is minimize procrastination.
  • 2nd is improve control of my finance.
What I've been doing so far. Regarding procrastination, I started making a daily to do list and reduced time spent on social media and other time swallowing activities. As for finance, I began calculating my spendings and using the envelopes method in order not to exceed the limits.

#1 Grow food and become more independent. Gain experience and knowledge in growing things organically.

#2 Do more 3D printing and CNC hobbyist stuff, 3D paper models. More DIY.

#3 Focus more on positives. Rather than negatives.

#4 Make a conscious effort to treat people better and perhaps treat myself better as well.

#5 Read more about things I've been procrastinating on.

#6 Do more stock market trading, more finance.

Etc, etc.
