Hey, that is awesome! Congratulations. It has been challenging, I am sure, but you are doing it anyway.

Well it’s been 2 months and I’m still commited to my New Year’s resolution. I quit smoking, I drink less and I’m jogging 3-4 times a week. Let’s see how much longer can I keep it up

I don't set resolutions because it will only get me disappointed if they're not followed, and who really follows them anyway? lol! Lens last blog post..Octuplets' Mom Nadya Suleman Interview + Photo

No – I frequently revisit my goals, and even more regularly visit my task list. I find that works better than setting ‘resolutions’ that don’t often get reviewed.

BTW, one of my current goals is coaching seven 10-year-old kids to think creatively (Odyssey of the Mind). Real challenging to coach without directly showing them how to build things. Haven’t yet figured out how to break that task down into bite-sized chunks. Especially challenging when all you get is blank looks when you ask them what a palm-leaf looks like and how do you replicate that with things that are to hand…

Any tips on building creativity very welcome!

P.S. Ich kann nicht sprechen Deutsch, but I looked up the text above Post Comment on iGoogle translator – maybe a goal should be to learn more German than I know now …

It's still German. The checkbox at the bottom says "Ja, ich möchte bei Kommentaren benachrichtigt werden!" I'm still setting goals. The problem I have is that out of all the things I could do, which ones should I put my time and energy into? Eric S. Muellers last blog post..Communication: Getting to the Point

Yep, I set several obtainable goals this year. I allways accomplish my NY’s resolutions, so why not!

Yep, making NY TODO-lists every year – “12 steps that will change my life” .
And who cares that half of them stay undone? Important thing is that another half gets done!

This year I’m going to start driving a car, get professional certification, learn playing harmonica, and many more interesting things.

I don't set new year's resolutions because psychologically my "feel" about them is they're pie-in-the-sky resolutions which are followed for a week then dropped until 31 December at which point guilt about "not being good enough" sets in. I do, however, use the turning of the year as a time for reviewing and refreshing and re-committing to my goals. But I refuse to call them new year's resolutions.
