Given my past, every day I get is a gift and every year a miracle personally. As for resolutions, I'm not real big on them, but I really would like to spend more time making music and less time thinking about it. I find myself doing far to much "planning to do" and much less "actually doing" this second half of the 2010 and I really want to get over this lack of creativity I've felt as of late. I'm hoping that by throwing myself at it with a very open mind I can get some of my muse flowing.

Despite my knowledge of your past, nobody should need such circumstances to jolt them into feeling that way, it's a shame the majority of people do.

We exist, we are alive in this moment, in this place, in this time, experiencing whatever we are experiencing. What are tha chances? What are the chances everything happened in the specific way that resulted in us all coming into existence? Too small to comprehend, yet we're here. That's enough reason for me to feel like every day is a celebration.

LIFE IS GOOD, ETC. \m/ ^_^

Whenever I tell other people my resolutions, I ALWAYS fuck them up. This year I'm trying it differently.

 

[J.DavisNJ]

Quitting smoking and obtaining a new job!

[bryan_kilco]

Going to try to cut down, if not quit, cigarettes and beer. The past year may have been my worst with my addictive habits. Too much money blown, nothing to show for it except wheezing, headaches, and hangovers.

 

[P-E]

Getting a job.

 

[AllanD]

Getting that teaching assistant job and gaining more muscle weight, I'm peaked.

This too.

Except I have said the same thing for years now.

Each year it's getting worse. Fuck it, I don't wanna die just yet.

 

[Skyweaver]

2011 is for focus for me.
Find work/life balance.
Finish the albums I've started.
Finish TOGAF and PMP certification

 

[Sickan]

Finish university, get a job, earn money to go back to Manhattan.

Wishes: win a couple of millions on the lottery and leave this country for good.

 

[Eddy]

To all the Sneapsters deciding to quit smoking I recommend this:

Helped me to quit after 15 years.

My resolution is to find a job.

LIFE IS GOOD, ETC. m/ ^_^

In a way we are in agreement and I guess I'm trying to say the same thing as you - it's not the fact it's New Years that makes me feel grateful for each day, it's how I feel each and every day as there was a time in 2004 when I was convinced I would not live to see my next birthday, let alone 6 more of them and counting.

My New Years jolt is the artificial boost to get me to start doing and stop thinking about music, I just listed the other as sort of getting everyday living out of the way since I try to do that each and every day. Lately, well longer than lately, I do a whole lot of creative thinking about music, but very little actual creation. It's been so bad the past month and a half (even with my brand new amp), I have not picked up my guitar despite thinking about playing daily. So - my resolution is to play not think.

I got up this morning and walked into my office/studio space and plugged in and proceeded to play "Auld Lang Syne" on my guitar loud enough to wake up my wife and the dogs - I did, I did not think Now to do it every day.

 

[DanLights]

My New Year's Resolution is to be more like Jind. Seriously

 

[Ermz]

Find a place to relocate, whether it be here or abroad.
Make every effort to push some of my bands through and work on some a-list records.
Find a better way to balance social life with work.
Raise rates again?
