Are you still making the same New Year’s resolution to eat healthy and lose weight? Then by February you find yourself in the McDonald’s drive-thru racked with guilt, but justifying it because you made an effort to exercise for 3 weeks. Take some advice from the guy who on more than one occasion received the following note on his school work; “Erik has the ability to excel he just needs to apply himself.” I like to set the bar low and gain a sense of achievement though meeting goals that are so easy anyone can do them.
Here are my resolutions for 2008:
#1 – This year I will take my full lunch hour at least twice a week.
#2 – This year I will hopefully see Led Zeppelin in concert.
#3 – This year I will take my daughter to the zoo for the first time.
#4 – This year I will beat my wife at bowling on the Nintendo Wii.
#5 – This year I will leave work before 6:00 pm everyday
#6 – This year I will donate all of the clothes I haven’t worn in a year.
#7 – This year I will watch all of the Steelers and Penguins games.
#8 – This year I will spend the 4th of July on a raft in a pool with an adult beverage.
#9 – This year I will take a day off and go to the movies alone.
#10 – This year I will spend time with friends and/or family at least one night a week.
I will have the time and ability to achieve all of these goals because I won’t be wasting time traveling to meetings. Instead, I will use the Genesys Meeting Center to meet virtually during business hours. I can hook up the web-cam for face-to-face interaction and transfer documentation instantly, so there is no need for me to travel hundreds of miles to do what I could in seconds with a mouse click. Any meetings I am unable to attend can be recorded, so I can view them later. No more nights alone dining at the Red Lobster in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, or sitting at the hotel bar in Des Moines, Iowa second-hand smoking Marlboro Lights. I will be at home on my couch with my family enjoying the things I like to do.
Now if you’ll excuse me I have Wii bowling practice.
