Smoothie Resolution Renewal

I tried to become a better person once but haven't made much progress. These 7 things still apply, so I'm re-posting them in an effort to try and straighten myself out again.

1. Become closer to HIM. Always seek HIM. 'nuff said.

2. Don’t make things more complicated than they really are. Make things simple. Do what is necessary first and enjoy it, so that if the “fun” doesn’t come, it won’t be missed.

3. Do not depend on friends and/or family to help you work out your own problems. Do not hope that someone depends on you to get something done as a means of motivation. Rely on your OWN well being as a motivation to succeed at what you do. (This has been a major problem for you, fix it!)

4. Do homework, do it well, and do it on time. Master your time management skills. (This is also a major problem.)

5. Stay fit. Run, lift weights in a balanced work out (all muscles equally, not just the major ones), do Yoga/Pilates. Bike and swim often and for long periods of time. Enjoy the outdoors this summer and every summer as much as possible. Train for RAGBRAI one day… or the ride that crosses Minnesota.

6. Eat healthy. Have at least 1 fruit and 1 vegetable at every meal. Have a smoothie! Have three reasonable sized meals a day. Avoid eating out, especially fast food, and especially fast food when you’re by yourself.

7. Make money. Save a lot of that money. Think of ways to save money (Eat your parents food, when you visit for home.) Make more money. Save more money. Become an entrepreneur and find a way to make money on the side!
