Random Traffic Through Nick's Brain

It’s that time of year again when a young Nick’s mind turns to self-improvement and setting goals for the next year of my life.

My goals for this year, be healthy, be thoughtful, and be self-confident and self-content, went decently well. I’ll review those in a bit, and I’m assuming that my goals for this year will contain some leftovers and ongoing things.

So far my possible goals for next year include:

• Be a good role model. Before acting, think… would I like my kid(s) to learn from this example? [N]
• Work on our entertaining skills… want to do more than just hang out and veg. Not sure how well this’ll work with Alex around. [EVD]
• Figure out how to split the bill equitably at restaurants. How to not run up the bill for others, and not be perceived as running up the bill for others. [DCE]
• Arm twist people less. [DE]
• Be more aware of ACLs for information and conversations. [DE].

That said, I’m open to suggestions for goals. Anything goes. Comment, anonymously if you want. Use a proxy server if you don’t want my web-server seeing your IP address.

I’m especially interested in goals relating to “What I don’t hear”. Things that I need to work on but am a bit blind to, either because I’m not there when people say things about me, or because when I am told these things, I choose not to hear or ponder them.
