New Year, new me

I thought I’d wait a little bit into 2012 before I posted this, otherwise it would fall into obscurity with the deluge of New Year resolution evangelists and to be honest I wanted my ideas to bed in myself before public announcement.

So 2011…. in a nutshell it was a strain. There were some highlights for sure - birth of my second son, my eldest turning 2 and my beautiful wife putting up with me for another 365 days. These have been far overshadowed by a lot of stress and strains, usually stemming from financial difficulties.

On to 2012. Instead of setting New Years resolutions I’ve decided to lay out specific goals to achieve with concrete plans and outcomes. I also think its essential to declare them publicly to help see them through and where better to do so than this blog.

I have 3 major goals for 2012. I will post a separate entry elaborating on each over the next week, but for now let me introduce you to the lists:

1. Lose 4-5 stone by November
2. Get my finances under control
3. Announce, fund, build and Launch my next game

I think 3 is a solid achievable number. Of course there are many steps within each and a lot of minor goals that I don’t think are relevant for this public forum.

So watch out for goal number 1 next…..
