Do you make New Year’s resolutions? I almost always do, and I’ve been known to actually stick to them although most of the time I don’t. The New Year is here, and it is nice to think about new beginnings. There’s something about a new year beginning that gives us hope and an eagerness to start fresh. That freshness usually has a quick expiration date, but for at least a few days, it’s nice.
What do I want to do differently in 2008? The old standbys are diet and exercise. Maybe that’s why I’ve always needed to be concerned about weight loss and exercise. Everything else in my life is pretty much on target. I need SOMETHING to obsess about. That’s not it, but it sounds good and is as good an excuse as I’ve heard from others.
I have one new goal this year. Since I received a beautiful piano as a Christmas gift from RT, I want to practice the piano. My goal is to select one song each week and practice it enough that I can play it well. That way, I will soon be able to sit down at the piano and have a repertoire of music that I can play well.
Two years ago I started the Monthly Marathon - with the goal of walking the equivalent of a marathon (26 miles) each month. That’s a very do-able goal. I’m thinking seriously of getting the Monthly Marathon blog going again. What do you think? Any takers?
Another goal is to make more money from my blogging. I was doing really well there for a few weeks, and then Google did a page rank re-assessment and zipped my page rank to zero - and having that low a page rank pretty much dried up all my money-making possibilities. So I want to work on making a little bit of money from this pasttime of mine.
