1. Drink more water - this is in part because I tend towards sweet beverages and because I don’t consume enough liquids in general.

2. Cut carbs - this is going to be a hard one, seriously. I usually start my day with a bagel, half on the way to work and the other half when I get there. I have a sandwich (wheat or whole grain bread, but still) at lunch and then often pasta dishes for dinner. I’m a carb loader. I read somewhere that carb consumption helps neutralize stress so that’s part of it, the other is just my fast metabolism. The latter won’t last forever so I need to start working on it now. Bye Bye Bagel

3. Read more - with my new kindle, this should be easy to do.

4. Be better, (so you can) do more at work - I got a bit caught up in quantity this year and so I want to find a better balance between quality and quantity. Back to basics but on a higher level, refinement. You can always do better.

5. Be better in touch with family

That’s it for now but more may come to me.
