Default Does anyone have a New Year's resolution?

I'm not sure I really have one, other than I guess to continue to exercise frequently. I have some fitness goals if those count.

Anyone with a good one? Like drink more, a lot more?

Not sure if it's a NY resolution, but I'd like to try & drink less. I don't get pass-out drunk, but I enjoy it too much; probably not good for my health.

Quitting would probably also help me drop a few pounds, which wouldn't be a bad thing...

I decided that going into 2020, I would see things more clearly(2020) and cut some bullshit from my life. I have started on a mission the last two weeks doing so, first by firing an unproductive, ignorant employee Christmas eve, whom I should have fired sooner. Next up, a woman who is really smoking hot but a pain in the ass, I have cut ties with her as of Sunday, asking her to not call me any more and deleting her from my phone and email. Finally, just this morning, I sent notice to my financial firm cutting ties with them as of midnight tonight. For the amount of money they manage for me, their accessibility was terrible. They were good the first few years, then went south. The returns with them are great, but I need more accountability.

I am trying to go into the new year with a clear mind and fresh start.

No true resolution but I need to start downsizing "stuff" and sell one of the Vettes. Our daughter will get her drivers license in 2020 and we're still debating on getting a car for her so I don't need more crap to take care of.

I've never done resolutions, but I do need to get my ass back off of the couch.

I was doing pretty well with it early last year, then stress killed my appetite, lost weight, lost energy and the will to exercise.

The turn of the calendar has nothing to do with it, but I need to get going.

Business: Try not to care so much & lose less sleep.

Personal: Be more charitable, laid back, relaxed, and quit trying to fix every problem that pops up.

Family: Spend more time calling or visiting loved ones who aren't nearby.

Forum: Less Iron Maiden Formulas

Gave up on them years ago, never worked. As I get older and crankier, when I hear something coming out of the mouth of an obvious stupid person, I hold back and think of positive things instead of wanting to slap the piss out of them.
I feel better now.
