The New Year

I always make a lot of virtuous resolutions at New Year's. I don't know why I bother, except that I feel like if I don't, I'm just stagnating. I think an important part of life is always seeking to improve somehow. Hence all the idealistic New Year's resolutions.

Still, I keep the goals flexible, so I don't have to feel like a total failure for not meeting them. They're sort of always under revision, really. That's life.

Most of my New Year's resolutions focus on publishing, and most of them tank after a few months. But we'll see. I've still got that great spreadsheet off of which I can work all year, if I can make the time. That's my main New Year's resolution: I will make the time.

Cheers.
