1) Health: I am fairly healthy, certainly much more healthy than I was this time last year. Still I have some improvements to make. After last years success, I will continue with my strategy, and make hard and fast goals for fitness, and soft and flexible rules for diet.
- Eat LESS sugar and carbs, MORE fruits and veggies. Fruits and veggies don't count as carbs, and I'm actually not interested in following a low carb diet, I just want to ward of the diabetes as long as possible (genetics are stacked against me)
- Monitor my weight and see to it that I loose 10 pounds in the next six months (this is not a hard goal, since 10 pounds in half a year is achievable by nearly imperceptible dietary changes. )
- Run around the track three times without stopping. This is a fixed goal. I can make it around once comfortably now. I am pretty sure the track is a bit less than half a mile long, but I don't really think it matters, I'd rather measure in times around. It definitely helped last year to not have to worry about measuring out a run or remember numbers, I just knew exactly how close I was to making it once around.
3) Friends and Family:
- I will pay more attention to making my children and spouse feel appreciated. In particular, I will make sure that my personal crisis of work and career doesn't harm my otherwise happy and chronically supportive wife.
- I will spend more time listening, and I will be sure to lecture less.
- I will invite for every invitation I receive.
- Tend the garden
- Organize the house
- Cook the food.
