New Years Resolutions

So come on then. What's yours?

I've made 2:

1. Don't drink during January (and no I'm not doing a ****ing dryathalon, thanks for asking. A charity can't just come along and take over an idea that people regularly do. Movember is a good idea, but this 'dryathalon' isn't)

2. Get out of bed every morning when my wife does. She sets off for work earlier than I do, and so normally I lounge around in bed and read emails and SZ and the news while she get's ready and leaves the house. However I've decided I'm going to stop doing this and to get up and have breakfast with her and either get in to work earlier or do a bit of work at home before leaving the house. A good routine to get into I reckon.
 
Save a bit of money on shopping. Not neccesarily a resolution, more a neccessity!
 
1) Get more exams under my belt. Just started studying AF4 (Investment Planning) with the aim of becoming chartered.

2) Make better use of Linked In to get more clients

3) Get my son competent at football with both feet. Started playing football with him a few weeks ago and think he is going to be good. Really plan to push this on.

4) Swim more.
 
Every year I resolve to wake up on NYD with a banging hangover. Achieved.

SUPPORT!!!!!!!!!.... please :winking:
 
Never bother personally, January is a depressing enough month without denying yourself a few pleasures! If I do anything, I start from February or even March, when the days are getting noticeably longer.
 
Try not to go overdrawn for the first time since I started uni, definitely keep the weight I lost during my last skint patch off (13stone 6 to 12stone 8 - amazing what a diet made predominantly of rice and pasta does for you), and get a 2:1 in my degree are the big ones. Things that aren't really resolutions (think more bonus objectives from a computer game) are finisha first draft of a novel and finish a pitch and first draft of a film or, more likely, a TV pilot.
 
Don't like to think of them as resolutions but more of aims, usually never bother with them or just forget after a month but this year I've got a few things I want to do.

1) Complete the AAT level 4 course and look into what course to follow up with.

2) Get a new job and move out. Working for my dad and living at home was what I needed a couple of years ago after a rough patch, but I've felt like I've needed to do this for a while now and hopefully it will happen this year. Also will need to decide where I want to move to, favouring either Leicester or London at the moment.

3) Get into a routine of going to the gym, making my own meals and being organised.
 
My resolution is to be more strident in my political views.

You'll find that easier with an absurd gait.

As for me. I don't make them for two reasons:

1. I never used to keep them.
2. Why wait until January to make a change? If something needs changing, just do it and don't make a song and dance of it.
