7 Suggestions For Your 2008 New Year Resolutions

Everybody wants to lose weight, get in shape, become a better person, get close to Jesus and learn to be the all-singing-all-dancing-space-monkey.
How boring.
Here are 7 cowboy suggestions for your 2008 New Year Resolutions.
- Emulate somebody
I watched my previous boss very closely and noted his mannerisms, attitude to work and social skills. Then I copied him. It doesn’t hurt to emulate a role model, somebody who has already achieved a certain level of success. If they’ve already been down that road, maybe you should follow in their footsteps. Another good example is that I admire mrbrown and try to copy him as a blogger. So if you admire somebody, try to emulate their strengths. - Visit India
When I visited Kolkata (previously known as Calcutta), it blew my mind. Cosmic, tragic, joyous and poignant all at the same time. It was like I was magically transported to an alternative universe where Jesus, Allah, Jehovah and Krisna all strode hand-in-hand. Guaranteed to expand and open your mind in ways untold. If it’s good enough for Popagandhi, maybe you should visit India too! - Learn to gamble
A person who doesn’t know how to gamble, doesn’t know how to manage risk or walk away while the going is good. Try a few hands. Soak in the experience. You’ll be a different person. - Reorganize your personal finances
How much insurance do you have? How much debt do you have? When will you be able to payoff your loans? If you lost your left leg, would you still be able to afford your current lifestyle? Obviously most of us would not be able to answer any of these questions in a flash. Which is why you should reorganize your personal finances. - Throw away exe-momentos
Throw away all their photos and little gifts that you have hidden in that box inside the closet. Delete all their emails, sms’s and phone numbers. You’re obviously never going to have anything to do with their life again - so why not just move on? - Get cured of racism
80% of the people I know, are racists. So you are potentially one as well. If you don’t like somebody of a particular race, then your goal for 2008 should be to make friends with at least 3 people from that particular race. If you get invited for dinner at their place by June, you’ve achieved your goal. - Try Anal Sex
Applies to both men and women (does not apply to gay men)
