2010 New Year Resolution

This is a long overdue post. Havent made new year resolutions for the longest time. Think just didn't believe in it or maybe I just knew that I will be breaking them (Read : One lazy bum! Hehe). However since many people have mentioned that writing it down (digital counts) helps us at least attempt them, here goes my list.

In no particular order,

Exercising Regularly
I had planned to swim/gym every evening, Monday-Friday after work since my working hours was supposed to be 5am-2pm. But as luck would have it, it's back to the regular hours of 8.30-5.30. Which means I will only be home late evening. Still plenty of time right, you say. Just that it clashes with my other resolution (See below). So I've cut it down to 3 times a week until some other arrangement can be work out.

Eating healthily
This would mean having more home cooked food. But cooking everyday after work in the evening is just oh-so-tiring. Actually cooking and the cleaning up is ok for me, quite fast in fact. Just the preparation part ie de-fattening the chicken etc, that will take me hours. So another amendment here is to cook every other day, with enough portion for dinner, to deep freeze for the following day's dinner and sometimes a bit more to tapau for lunch.

Being Fitter, Losing Weight
With the executions on 2 resolutions above, hopefully this one follows through. Of course to help with being fitter, will take on multi-vitamins in the hope of strengthening my immune system.

Career - Work Life Balance
Not so sure which path I want to take, to continue climbing the corporate ladder with zest or just stay in comfort zone and makan gaji, going with the flow. Granted, I am not in a position high enough to say that I am getting paid enough to be comfortable in life. But have learned through experience that sometimes money without health/family time is not worth it. So the conclusion here is to strike a balance. Easier said than done. But hopefully I am able to strive my best at work, BUT within working hours only and thereafter free my personal time.

Get the house reno completed by mid 2010
This has been taking far too long. Enough said, just needs this to be completed presto

Hobbies
Will spend more time catching up on my reading as well as trying out new recipes. Realised in late 2008 that cooking is a stress reliever for me. Though hopefully I won't end up overeating, else there goes my plan to loose weight :p

Well that seems all there is for the moment. Am sure will get distracted mid-way through. So hopefully this posts helps to remind of the goals I've set-out to achieve for the year.
