I'll just stretch my arms, take some deep breaths and yawn a bit and say, 'this is gonna be a good year for me' and really feel that and try to keep that feeling the rest of the year, as I usually do around new year, and that'll be perfectly fine for me...

Seriously, resolutions are okay but you've gotta to keep 'em realistic and most importantly, doable.

I've heard this simple principle in life somewhere, I don't who's the author since I heard it from a 2nd or 3rd hand source, but immediately when I heard it, I thought this must be the principle of principles of life that you must be living with. It goes something like this:

Ask yourself what is the most important thing that you can and should be doing, and why you aren't doing it (the implication here is that you're most likely not doing it)?

So why aren't you? That's a million dollar question.
Basically my New Year's resolutions are the same, lose some weight, re-start my exercise program that I stop doing for a while in November and December and setting personal priorities & realistic business goals. The key to carrying out my resolutions is self discipline and/or will power, qualities I have no shortage of.

Nice plan, that's a realistic and a doable one. Problem with most of us folks are we make too much fancy resolutions and end up being fed up with them, like some here who said not to make one, which I myself used to say on the 'n.y. resolution' threads here every yearend.

I work out about an hour everyday myself to keep fit, and when I eat too much or fattening stuffs, I do some extras. Working out has been somewhat addictive for me so it hasn't been much of a problem. I sort of even feel guilty if I skip even once.

Nice one, Spico. Just a bit surprised at some part which were so un-Spico-like. Keep at it.
