Since the year 2001 I've made the same resolutions every year.
Every year I fail, albeit spectacularly, to achieve any of aforementioned goals.
This year is different
The goals are more or less similar to their predecessors. However my approach has altered dramatically, It is what a great friend of mine calls "Being Awesome".
Consider the following aspirations :
1. Reach my goal weight (a recurrent goal) and change my lifestyle (Sigh. I will sorely miss being lazy and eating McDonald's meals)
2. Reverse Non Alcoholic Steatotic Hepatitis (Fatty liver caused by being overweight, quite reversible, I almost never drink. It eating that may kill me)
3. Rid my dog of the tick fever bug (he is a rescue German shepherd with only one ear hence named Vincent after Van Gogh. He has a resistant strain of Babesiosis)
4. Run a short race in an upcoming national half marathon in my city wearing apparel from Nike ( Ironically, not designed for the obese and those really in need of a workout)
5. Obtain edible vegetables from my new kitchen garden (already got some spinach! )
6. Learn how to bake delicious cookies
7. Have as much sex as I did 12 years back (a lot, a LOT. More effort required)
8. Wear Jeans (stopped in 2002 when I saw how I looked)
9. Finish my outline for the children's book I have in mind (sometimes a plot comes up and then goes, usually by the time I've left the John)
10. At least try to apply what I've read (and continue to read) about the meaning of life and meditations and the path to spiritual awakening (AKA the best cup of coffee ever)
11. Oh yeah, get over my fear of mirrors and other assorted reflective surfaces
12. Don't sweat the small shit. Or the big. Just don't sweat, period.
Yes, that about sums it up.
I have almost until the end of 2016 to sort this shit out. The race is on 20.11.16. I had reached up to getting my running bib last year but did not go for the actual race. This year I shall.
Welcome to my journey ladies and gentlemen.
