(written January 1) I don’t do resolutions. My resolve always fails. Instead I set myself some goals for the coming year, because goals are achievable and resolutions aren’t. Or something. :)
2006 goals:
1. write 400,000 words
2. walk 600 miles
3. read 104 books
4. lose 12 pounds
5. sell 3 books
I think I usually have more, but that looks like the right number for this year. I’m taking biking off for a couple of reasons: one, I haven’t made goal *yet* for that (neither for writing, but that’s different), and two, unless and until I can find somewhere that’s not suicidal to bike around here, I don’t see much darned biking happening anyway. I do plan to swim, but putting a distance down as one of my yearly goals hasn’t helped so far, so I think I’ll just take the pressure off and call it good.
