new life resolutions

Instead of New Year's resolutions, how about some new life resolutions-- resolutions for the long term? Mine are, in no particular order:

1. Get out of debt and stay out of debt.

2. Walk across the country, from sea to shining sea.

3. Lose weight to the point of actual slimness.

4. Own a large, free-standing home that will have room for a capacious gym, a masonry, metal- and wood-shop atelier, a large entertainment center, a recording studio, a place to display art, several guest rooms, several rooms devoted to the private practice of different religions, and a large, magnificent kitchen.

5. Learn Spanish, Portuguese, German, and Russian; master Korean and classical Chinese.

6. Become truly proficient at East Asian brush art.

7. Travel regularly among the US, South Korea, and western Europe.

8. Write at least two popular, worthwhile books.

9. Get and keep a woman who is kind, smart, and beautiful. Kids very optional.

10. Master at least two martial arts.
