I kinda want to get the facebook timeline, or whatever its called just because you get to have that in-your-face ginormous profile picture, and I think it looks fantastic.  I'm not really gonna get it; I'm just sayin'.

Behaviors are hard to change.  In fact, 9 out of 10, you will fail in changing your behavior (I made up this statistic).  Remember that time you tried to quit cigarettes or lose weight?  Yeah, you probably failed.  You may have succeeded, but the chances are that you probably screwed up plenty of times.  If not, well, I'm sure there are plenty of people who failed enough to bring the average down, such as me.  It took me about 30 tries to quit cigarettes. 

I'm not writing this to be pessimistic.  What I'm trying to say is that it will take all of your effort - and I mean all of it, to develop one good habit or get rid of a bad one.  So it's foolish to have 10 new years resolutions and expect all of them to work out simultaneously.  You can write 10 or 20 or however many you want, but if it involves long-term behavior, you better work on it one at a time.  Or two, if you are getting rid of a bad habit and replacing it with a good one. 

First, I'll begin my "no screens" project - no computers, ipads, smart phones, tv, etc., unless it's truly necessary.  We spend too much time droning, staring at a screen and not enough time with our loved ones or something that truly enriches our lives.  And with all the extra time I'll get, I will exercise... hopefully.
