Anyone who knows me knows I don't make New Years Resolutions. There are enough things I fail at in life without creating more opportunities on purpose. However, this year I've decided to make some...let's not call them resolutions. Let's call them goals. Tiny hopes? Contributions? Whatever, I don't feel like playing Thesaurus today. Though the world at large may not care about them, these are some things I hope to reasonably accomplish for myself.
1. Make something beautiful from something ugly.
2. Learn a new skill.
3. Use the skills I already have more and hopefully increase them.
4. Let go of resentments.
5. Find something within myself to offer the world.
6. Do what I love and put love into what I do.
7. Approach people without malice, but rather with the expectation of being liked.
8. Get off my ass more.
9. Overcome a fear.
I am aware that a lot of this stuff sounds very peace/love/hippies and quite far from my normal state of sloth and petulance, but I'm in a very zen place right now. Possibly caused by too much sleep and a distinct lack of social interaction. And this Cracked article (read it, it just might change your world). This all adds up to "be a better version of myself" but I like listing things, so fuck you. And Happy Belated New Year!
...I should probably add "Be on time for things" but who am I kidding? I'm not delusional here.
