New Year's Resolutions

It's that time of year again and like usual I've decided to set a few goals for this year. They're not quite resolutions because I'm not disciplined enough to actually keep resolutions. They are in fact some things I want to focus on this year to make my life more enjoyable, more productive, and make myself feel better.

1. Healthy lifestyle
This includes the usual lose weight goal but I'm also including healthy habits such as eating more fresh, locally grown food and starting an exercise program.

2. Debt Free lifestyle
My overall goal is to be debt free in two years. I have a huge amount so this will actually take some work. However, it can be done. In order to do that I have to eliminate half my debt this year. In order to do that I will have to cut my living expenses and increase my income. I don't have an extravagant lifestyle right now so it'll be hard to cut expenses so I really need to focus on increasing my income with a second and maybe a third source of income.

3. Artistic lifestyle
I want to increase beauty in my life and increase my creativity. So I am going to focus on both increasing my skills and being more productive. I also want to find creative and inexpensive ways to decorate my apartment.

So there you have it. My New Year's Focus. It'll be interesting to see what the New Year brings and what I can learn this year.
