I lost interest in making "resolutions" a couple of years back. Maybe it was because it just turned into a giant, impossible to-do list that almost always seemed insurmountable. (One of my middle names is "I'm-nothing-if-not-ambitious.") Anyway, this year, instead of listing things I want or need to do, I'm adopting a theme: energy. Simply put, it's about evaluating the amount of energy I put into something or someone based on what I can honestly expect back from it/them. It's not some kind of one-to-one ratio or cold self-interested analysis, but more of a reality check. If you can't make time for me, why am I chasing you around? If I'm not excited by what I'm doing or learning or don't have time to enjoy it, why am I doing it? It's gotten a little masochistic over the last few years.
