My New Year's Resolution

Something that is continuous, involves change for the better and is difficult, but not impossible, to achieve - that is my definition of a New Year's Resolution.

The perfect example is 'to quit smoking', this has clear benefits, is something that will create permanent change and is by no means easy. However I don't smoke so that one is out of the window for me, and I am sure a lot of other non-smokers struggle to come up with something as life changing at the beginning of every year.

For me I think coming up with a New Year's Resolution is a bit like writing a horoscope. You want it to be able to apply to almost every aspect of your life without being too specific and yet, at the same time, you want it to point at positive change.

So what is my New Year's Resolution?

Well today, after seeing a video of me (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsCBfziz4Yg) someone said to me that I do a lot. This may be true for me and a lot of others but there is always room for more and, spoken like the embodiment of ambition, I plan to go to infinity and beyond.

Therefore my New Year's Resolution is: "continue to grow and progress, and not stagnate".

Feel free to steal it if you are stuck for ideas but stick to it if you do, and don't let yourself get stuck in the mud.

Happy New Year.
