Well mine are fairly major.

Sort out and buy my first house.
Sort a permanent place to keep my car secure and be able to work on it, this will probably mean building a garage.
Keep fitness up, have let it slip a bit since leaving Army but massive hours are to blame.
Get my car onto a front cover of a leading car magazine.

I dont tend to do resolutions, but I have got some plans for the coming months:

Sort out finances and debts
Not get any fatter! (getting fitter would be nice but I need to be realistic :? )
Do well in the 2008 BDC, and get to as many other competitive events in that i can.
Look at new jobs, but mainly just to see what opportunities are out there.
Get rid of 1 of the cars, probably the CRX, to make way for a Eunos for the misses.
Get the Amazon shell done and start on the mechanicals.

The last time I made a new years resolution was news years eve 1999. The reason I have not made one since was that on saturday 22nd January 2000 I was taken ill at work within 10 hours I was clinically dead whilst on the operating table.....Tends to focus your mind

. I was off work for 6 months and almost the lost the house that I was buying, I was basically a zombie for that period until I realised that I wasting life.

So now I make sure that I take some pleasure out of everyday. I still have dreams but I never forget to enjoy the moment. Everytime your having fun take a moment to step back and appreciate it.

Goals for 2008.
1. Some form of competition
2. Full article on the car in a magazine
3. Front page of a magazine
4. To have a lot of fun
5. Complete all the things on our 2008 project list :-D

Stu i had to make that decision this year!!!
I am now forcing myself to make some harsh and life changing decisions However they just had to be made !
The balance between life and work had become unbearable and the work intolerable so onwards and upwards this year..
Think self employment potentially however this is not all it is cracked up to be
Wish you all well on your endeavours for the new year

Get my head together about what it is I want to do - I'm thinking about selling up and just going for it - travelling the world and see what opportunities there are in Aus or Nz.

A more localised set of resolutions are same as most - no more cigs and working out - bought a cross trainer ready ... Plus less drinking, beers on only one weekend night!! .. and going out for meals less.
