New Year's Resolutions
I used to post my New Year's resolutions onto LJ every year, and also look back at the previous year's resolutions and evaluate how I did. I don't care about failure and stuff like that. After all, my natural state is a state of rest. But it's fun to see if any successes arise.
Avoiding solid goals, and focusing mostly at doing better at things I do anyway, helps with that.
So here are my 2017 resolutions:
1) Work on my flexibility. I've always been proud of my flexibility, but it takes constant work, and I'm getting older. So, more stretching so that I can keep stretching.
2) Read some books. I used to read a lot of books, but with no public library around, my access to the books I want to read has declined. I haven't really taken to the Kindle. It's all right, but it's not getting me to read more books.
3) Further my education. Even if it's just free online courses or whatever.
4) Language studies. French, Chinese, whatever, just learn more of it.
5) Doodle more. Doodling is fun and productive. Do it more.
6) Serious art. Nothing is stopping me there except inertia. And lack of inspiration. I never know what to draw.
7) Work on my upper body strength so that I can punch creepy guys in the face lift heavy objects with ease.
