The Obligatory 2010 Resolution Post

Posted: January 1st, 2010

Most of my resolutions involve intarweb schtuff and I can’t really focus on such as much as I’d like right now, but it is good to put my goals into words. So, without going into too much detail, I want to:

- Interact more!
I’m already making progress by tagging on CW even when I’m not camming and by making myself available on instant messengers for the first time in years, but I need to improve upon answering Facebook, MySpace and FetLife (etc.) messages, commenting on other blogs, participating in forums and being more timely with email responses. There are times when I feel I have so little of interest to say, that I choose instead to say nothing. I need to break that habit and just shoot the shit with other people [who probably feel the same way sometimes].

- Get back to doing things I enjoy!
I used to cam several times a week, listen to music every evening to unwind and go out for dinner, brunch or drinks with friends semi-regularly. I need to make the most of every present moment, not agonize over the past or future. I still have a few good years of living left, right?

- Incorporate more ‘members only’ content into my site
(i.e. blog posts, vlogs, photos, videos) to create a community vibe, which puts me more at ease and makes me more likely to interact! Sharing my life can be much more fulfilling.

- Spend more time outside too (weather permitting)
I’m obviously no Sun Goddess, but I do venture outdoors more than you’d think. Unfortunately, it is usually for short stretches like walking to and from a particular destination or dining al fresco. I need to chill outdoors for no reason other than to actually enjoy it. For example, if I’m going to read or listen to music, take my book/discman outside.

- Appreciate myself more & stop “settling!”
I know I am pretty awesome and that those try to force me to be more like them instead of accepting me as I am probably don’t deserve to be in my life. I need to remember that this is my life, not anyone else’s. I need to live it for me, not for someone else. I love myself – either you like me too or you don’t. Those that try to play both sides need to be cut loose.

I think that just about covers it! Basically, this year should be about focusing on my wants and needs, instead of always putting others first. Through that I become a better person to be around. Win-Win!
