It's going to be a fun, fruitful, high-energy year, however... January 1, doesn't count. It's officially the day you sleep in with a hangover... then (slowly) gear up for the next 364. That's what I'm doing now. So far I've managed to jot down a few basic resolutions. I've divided them into two categories "golf" and "life":
Golf
I will...
...post my scores, track my handicap and organize my statistics.
...get a Sunday bag and play at least once a week at the par three.
...make an effort to connect, and play, with new and aspiring golfers.
...choose my fantasy golf teams based on research not whim.
...
Life
I will...
...finish my novel
...make my documentary
...manage my email
...be more sensible
...be more subversive
That's it so far. Somewhat banal, I know, but it's a start... and I'll (try to) elaborate later today. For now I'm off to a New Year's Day brunch. I may or may not skip the Mimosas.
I agree, today definitely doesn't count. That's a fairly decent set of resolutions, considering. :o) Happy 2011.
ReplyDeleteI notice one is already crossed off. Did you play today?
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year and good luck with your resolutions.
ReplyDeleteWhat's the novel about?
Happy New Year Patricia.
ReplyDeleteWhile I like your choices, it's too many for me and different than my own. I do however like these two:
Golf
I will...
...make an effort to connect, and play, with new and aspiring golfers.
Life
I will...
...manage my email

Wow! A documentary AND a novel in the same year? That's ambition. I look forward to both.
ReplyDeleteThat's impressive! My list is a lot shorter... and I've already broken a couple. Good luck with yours. :o)
ReplyDeleteGood resolutions! Especially the one about the Sunday bag! I have got to get a lighter bag. I'm hauling a cart bag around that has to weigh a good 10 lbs all by itself!

ReplyDeletethe secret to resolutions is find ONE that will make all the others easy - just like i did
my one resolution twenty plus years ago was to leave madison avenue / wall street and move to florida
and voila ! all the other resolutions, golf, sex, drugs, rock & roll, cigars, all magically fell into place
i still don't know what a "derivative" is despite studying its financial utility for years now - but i have learned neither did a lot of those who said they did, or if they did, used their knowledge in a destructive way
little doubt i would have been sucked up into that BS if i had not pulled the plug and did my thing
so patricia, all i can suggest is to "follow your bliss"
happy and healthy new year

Go! Be subversive! Happy new year!
ReplyDeleteI wish you all the best in accomplishing all those resolutions. I hope you could manage to do all those. Good Luck.
