For the love of god, you all need to read this or remember SMART goals. You will all fail miserably I'd you don't, and we will but laugh.

[stevepole]

I never make a new years resolution, I always feel if I make one its because I feel that something I'm doing is wrong and needs to be "fixed".

[Lenticular_J]

Learn how to drive, and well.

Get a good, actual job preferably something like landscaping or working at a men's clothing store (either way's cool with me).

Finish P90X.

Pimp this [cabbage].

 

All going to happen anyways.

[Furah]

Spend at least 1 night a fortnight out.

Start going clubbing at least twice a month.

Be able to run at a moderate pace half the distance between TAFE and the train station.

Find a steady job.

Buy my first car.

[Jes]

 

Give my girlfriend more attention.

 

 

Wow. That's all I have to say about that...

I want to get a car, learn how to drive a stick, get my own apartment when I turn 18, and go back to school.

Yes, I did, and people are making the same mistakes. Same problem same solution.

 

"Lose weight"; "Get more active"; "Build some muscle"; "Get healthy", "Get ripped", etc. ad infinitum. You don't define a goal, you won't make it. And if you don't take it in steps or learn to appreciate the little gains you definitely won't make it. You'll just be that crowd I see every January at the gym that seems to magically dissappear by February. Don't be in that crowd. I despise that crowd.

 

"Become a better person"; "Get better grades"; "Do better in school"; "Take chances", etc. Ambiguous resolutions, because they aren't defined, are hard to accomplish and offer little drive. Don't forget to account for human nature.

 

The resolutions are definitely better than last year: more realistic and defined (the health ones are the main problem I'd say). Still, if you don't change the way you state your goals you'll probably fail at 'em. Or rather, you'll succeed but nowhere near the level you want. You don't have to listen to me if you don't want, but this stuff is backed by science. SCIENCE. Science is never wrong. Like, ever. Watch commercials, that's what they say.

Oh God I remember having to do do all that goal setting crap in P.E. I have never been one to set goal, maybe why I never achieve anything lol.

 

And Mage aren't you a bit young to go clubbing just yet?

I am currently, but remember that the resolution is for the year, I intend to have all the things done by the end of the year.

[meol]

It's been half a year now. I thought it'd be interesting to bump the thread?

 

So, has anyone made any progress?

[Skull]

Find something I actually enjoy doing.

I haven't found my calling yet, but I've been trying out new stuff in an attempt to. All of them failed for the most part, although I've gotten pretty fond of working out. Cooking seems like it has potential as well.

 

 

Awesome idea with the 6 month bump. :thumbup:

What do you want us to say? "I will take 50% more showers."? Of course that is a more effective way if you are really that dedicated, but realistically, resolutions are just a [fun] little method of pointing at your own flaws over the past year and seeing how you could better yourself. I never really took resolutions as something that was meant to be a life-changing tactic. Those should occur when the need arises, not every January 1st.

 

Get better at playing bass. Definitely can play faster and cleaner. I didn't get as creative with it as I wanted to though.

Build some muscle in my arms. I gained more muscle, but it kind of happened naturally, so I wouldn't count this.

Try and maintain a better sleeping schedule. Still pathetic, but I improved.

Start a savings account. Completely forgot.

Get a gamerscore of at least 20,000. I'm already nearing 18k. This is not a very good thing to have a resolution for.

Give my girlfriend more attention. Yes, I haven't been getting any complaints so I'm in good shape!

Try out new types of beer/alcohol. Check.

Take more showers. lol Ooops, another one I forgot.

[i_love_burritos]

I broke my New Year's resolution within 18 hours of the new [bleep]ing year ...

[Dreamtongirl]

I can never think of them.

But for 2011 I would like to work harder, get a job, study more, befriend more people, and have more fun.

[RpgGamer]

1. Get over ex girlfriend

2. Get job

3. Get ripped

4. Find new girlfriend

5. Ace College first semester

 

:thumbup:

 

let's see here...

 

1. Check :D

2. Check :D

3. ehh....lets save that one for next year

4. actually pretty close :D

5. [bleep].

 

meh.

 

I did alright.
