I like your three P's!

azewewish referenced a site a few years ago which recommended choosing 1-3 motivational words from a list rather than making New Year's resolutions. For the last couple of years mine have been Change, Creativity, Aventure and Risk.

I still like those *G* but I think I might print out some little cards with the 3P's on to stick over my desk to remind me that I can't achieve the first four without Perseverance -- Persistence -- Patience *G*

I was up writing it til 1 AM the night before it was due, and I don't even remember where I cribbed that particular bit from. It does have a ring to it, though, doesn't it?

It was a small group---only about ten people, all of whom I know---so it wasn't that nerve-wracking.

The body of it was a matter of Googling "New Year's Resolutions" and copy-pasting the results. Yeah, I customized it a little, but it was a lot shorter than the usual talk---I don't think it was more than ten minutes, total.
