I’m not the type to do new year’s resolutions; a few disappointing December 31sts led me to skip the tradition over the past few years.
In 2005 I went through some of the biggest changes of my life. I’ve been taking a lot of time to reflect upon who I am, who I want to be, and where I want to go in the future. All of the thinking led me to make some goals and principles for 2006; they’re not really resolutions, but they’re more guidelines to think about throughout the year. You’ll most likely notice that most of what I say and do will reflect these principles. In the interest of organization (who, me?), I’ve broken them down into a couple categories.
I want to BE…
- less rushed
- less stressed
- less attached to the computer
- less obsessive (about some things)
- less worried about the little things in life
- more patient
- more outspoken
- more social with friends
- more responsive to people
- more diversified and open to new things
- honest
- creative
- true to my morals and beliefs
I also want to…
- travel more and farther
- find new things that I enjoy doing
- do more things that allow me to meet new people
- do more things that I want to do, no matter what other people say
- complete better Web projects
- photograph more (and possibly create a business)
- take my best-ever photograph
- show people why I respect them
- show people why they are valuable
- breathe more
- change the world (and/or save it)
