JAN. 03 | 11 things to accomplish in '11

  • Posted on: 3 January 2011

Despite being an athlete for most of my life, and being well-versed in goal setting and the S.M.A.R.T. method, my New Year's resolutions always seem to end up being really general, extensive, intangible, all encompassing, and, as such, completely daunting, overwhelming, and ... unresolved.

So, here are 10 specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and timely things I'd like to accomplish this year. And one completely vague, immeasurable, intangible, idealistic and never-ending aspiration.

  1. Post 52 blog entries.
  2. Do 10 chin ups. In a row.
  3. Make one collage.
  4. Convert my U.S. flight instructor rating to a Canadian licence.
  5. Complete my wedding photo album.
  6. Read 12 books, including Atlas Shrugged, The Brothers Karamonov, David Copperfield, Crime and Punishment, The Gulag Archipelago, and the Lord of the Rings.
  7. Grow my design business by keeping established working hours.
  8. Simplify. Operation Desert Stuff.
  9. Consume for the entire year according to my frugal philosophy.
  10. Practice yoga at least once per week.
  11. Be. Practice daily and concertedly to be myself, be self-assured, be in the moment and be okay with it.


The deviant resolution is obviously number 8.
