So to recap from last year. Let's see how successful I was.
BS 2013
- learn something new Yes!
- do something outside my comfort zone Yes! We went snow shoeing, skating. I ran this year but sadly I stopped but I actually ran 7 km.
- be crafty I'm crafty in my own unique way.
- read more (and track the books) I read more but I didn't track my books. I'm not sure if I can do this one.
- read less trash That's a big fat no.
- read 6 non-fiction books Yup, no again. I don't even know if I read one.
- read 2 educational non-fiction books Meh. I suppose work stuff doesn't count, right?
- be more patient I'm not sure if this is a fail or not. I tried but I know I could try more. And I'm talking about with family. I don't care about patience at work.
- work less (I know you're thinking haha, work less but if you only knew how much work I bring home. And it's not like I fuck around at work, it's just my work load is very demanding) I tried but it's difficult. I do try and make a conscious effort to leave work for the next day if there isn't a pressing deadline. Sadly I am always behind at work.
- declutter my house hahahahaha. as if
- declutter my head I wish. And if people knew what was floating around in my head, they would be amazed. well amazed or frightened. one of the two
- be more organized in my personal life not really. I try but I'm just shitty at it
- lose weight lost and then fucking gained it plus more back
- exercise 3 times per week see above
- gain confidence yes and no. I have really put myself out there lately and it's getting better. not so much at work but here in the community
- meet one new person I have met tons of new people in the new community. And one or two are getting to be quite good friends
- actually have a conversation with this new per son
- go to a movie, but not necessarily with this one new person I don't even know if I went to a movie this year. I really want to but I think I'll have to go by myself
- blog at least once per week (easier said than done) try try again this year
- start printing photos I really need to do this. And hang the photos.
- get people to respect me more I don't know about this one. I'm not sure how much respect I get either at home or work.
- be less fearful I'm getting better. I'm getting more confident about myself
- value my own opinion I really doubt myself a lot. Even though afterwards I find out that I was indeed correct
- stop caring about what others think getting better about this one.
- be less judgemental I try and remember that everything and everyone is living their own battle. I am neither better or worse than my neighbour. This is a tough one
- be happy if I accomplish at least 2 of the above items, no wait 5 items
- oh and just don't forget to breathe
- Run a 5km
- Journal weekly entries
- lose my fat ass and fuck, keep it off
- go out with friends once per month
- be more involved with life, stop being an observer
- no regrets
- say yes more to things
- say no more to other things
- remember your priorities. when I die, what do I want John to remember?
- purge. don't be so afraid to throw things out. you don't need to keep everything
- learn one new thing
- read 2 non-fiction books
- read less trash
- watch less TV
- get out of the house more - not including work
- talk with family
- meet the neighbours. socialize with the neighbours

Perhaps you need to add "beat myself up less" to your list :-). Reading through it, I found myself agreeing with every single one. "Me too; yep, that's me too; oh, good one! I need to do that too!" Does it help knowing we all seem to have the same goals on our lists? Maybe we all need to ease up on ourselves a bit?
Oh...and the lost weight/gained weight one? Me too...it's so annoying and frustrating. So this year, my list item just says "move more and if I lose weight, great."
