Well, it’s a few days in, but it’s still early enough for me to wish you all a happy new year!
Traditionally, this is the time of year that people reflect on the year just passed and the year ahead. Who am I to break with tradition? I thought I’d start with looking forward first, reflecting will take more than one post!
I’m expecting this year to be a challenging year, work will be getting busier (in a good way) and I’m looking to push myself to be better at everything I do – being a husband, photography, my job, being a friend. It’s also going to be an exciting year. 2010 marks Linda’s and I being married for 5 years. To celebrate, we’re going on holiday to Canada for 3 weeks in September, which we’re both very excited about! I’m a bit suspicious of ‘New Years Resolutions’, mainly because I’ve never been good at keeping them! But then, usually I’m the only one who knows them so there’s no accountability! So, I thought this would be a good place to air my intentions for the year:
.To be more regular on my Blog, not having 3 month gaps!
.To stick to my 365 photography project
.To push myself in my photography so that I can see a marked improvement between now and the end of the year
.To be a more helpful husband
.To be more assertive – not pushy or nasty, but more sure of myself
.To be better at keeping in touch – I let too many people down last year by being pants at keeping in touch
what are your intentions for the year?
Ooh hello new blog design! Very smart.
I’m not a huge fan of new year’s resolutions, I don’t like setting myself up to fail! I am however always striving to be less grumpy, more productive, and at least attempt to control my cake cravings!
