New Year’s Resolutions

Odd thing. Maybe it says something about the FA membership. Of all the folks I have on my Watch List, after all the Christmas and New Years back-and-forth well-wishing I saw being exchanged, I have only seen ONE posting of a New Year’s resolution. Does this mean that FAers are perfectly content with themselves and their level of personal development?
For myself, my New Year’s Resolution is to produce at least one drawing for every single day for 2016.
Oh sure, I expect to have some gaps in the calendar due to Ol’ Man Reality; sickness (I did come down with a bout of messy sickness for the last three days of the Old Year), emotional turmoil (don‘t ask), unexpected company dropping in (and not keeping their clothes on -- yes I have friends who are unashamed exhibitionists and know I blush very easily, all of which is very distracting), and so on.
So have any of you set out your own personal New Year’s resolution(s) for self-improvement for this year? What are they?

FA+

1) Lose weight by changing my diet and exercising more.
2) Improve my shell artistry skills.
3) Finally be able to get out on my own and start my own life in the world.
Goals, steps along the way, being responsible to and for yourself in achieving your goals and maybe the hardest of your soon-to-be-enjoyed freedoms, developing the courage to see yourself through the rough or boring times.
Good Luck my friend.
#2 is a noble self-benefiting goal.
#3 is good so long as you define what you define as “a bit”. A paragraph, a page, or a chapter?
#4 made me laugh.
Enjoy your breathing.
Okay Foxie, I will be posting something within the next week. Nothing special, just something that I think may get some folks out there commenting “You know, I never thought about that... but that‘s true.”
