Yea I know these are a little late and we are already 4 months into the year, but better late than never.

- Work on my procrastination issues (personally I want to put this at the bottom of the list but that’s procrastination at its finest)
- Think about OTHERS before I think about myself
- Blog MORE, and make them useful to people other than myself
- Finish one or two of the projects I’ve started but haven’t completed yet
- Start back to the gym and actually GO regularly
- Spend more time in FL with my boy
- Start a video blog of my rants (ala ‘What Grinds my Gears’)
- Fish w/my Dad and Brother more often
- Read a book a month (off this list — PMBA Recommended Reading List)
- Drink more (yes drink more — people seem to like people that drink, I’m currently a  peer pressure drinker)
- Make concerted effort to be faithful to myself and those in my life
- Run (doesn’t sound like a lot but for a 350+lbs guy its a MAJOR accomplishment) / Would like to run a 5k one day  

- Figure out how to control my budget
- Stop eating out as much as I do (see budget issue)
- Drink more water
- Work on my time-management skills or lack there of
- Enroll in college again — MBA would be nice but just getting my BS in Business Management would be a plus
- Find a mentor (professional and personal)
- Ride my bike more
- Look into and possibly practice Zazen , Not from a religious stand point but from a self-help point of view.
- Get back into the photography game, but this goes back to the budget problem since   I sold all my gear last year — $2000 to get back to where I stopped is a lot of   ‘play’ money
- Lose 100+lbs in the next year.  I KNOW I can do it, I just don’t push my self since   Im an instant gratification kinda person.  I need to SEE it fall off me fast or I   give up.

That’s all for the list.  There are really alot of other areas I need to work on or things I would like to accomplish but those will be listed in another list later this year.

Wish me luck and leave a comment of encouragement if you want.
