my 2009 new year resolution
by Shang Lee
After putting aside my 2008 year-end holiday to-do list and concentrating on just one resolution, i find myself with this:
Practise Tai Chi daily (at least 20 minutes per block)
I was finding it difficult to just aim for one resolution. There are just so many things that I would like to put on to the list, but if I put more, I’ll achieve less, as with previous years. That, I guess is the paradox of quantity – the more you do, the less you seem to achieve. So, if I were to achieve just this one goal, I think it’ll be a great 2009! I’ll keep the other goals as bonuses if I were to achieve them. My other goals were:
1. read 52 books (that’s one book a week!)
2. run a marathon
I think i’m realistic enough to leave them out for now…

Thanks Rick. Seems like Steve is using a primary focus as well. I also found something similar through zenhabits.net called the power of less.
