So it’s that time of year again…New Years Resolutions!
I’ve always been a big fan of setting and tracking goals. It’s gotten me to run marathons, finish grad school, and complete other daunting tasks. I suggest others to set realistic goals by using the SMART Goal Setting method)

This year I have 12 resolutions! Yep, it’s a lot. Surely full of unpredictable blows, as well as the following tasks I plan to accomplish. Because some goals are complex, I decided to dissect them into clear paths. This will help to achieve them, as well as aid in tracking my progress. Also, I’ve been missing work and aching to do some diagram sketching! Enjoy, hope it inspires you with your own goals!
Here’s my 12 resolutions for 2009, in no particular order….

I'd love to make it a series somehow...and title ideas?
Re you wanting to look like that dude. he is very muscly. you're going to have to pump iron 12 hrs a day, maybe even while you work. one handed bicep curls. might be good for reducing carpal tunnel, too.
i applaud it!
