The Year That Will Be: 15 Goals

It turns out I have a lot of goals for 2014. Here’s a list.

  1. Wring all the sloppiness from my eating program.
  2. Find a cheap elliptical machine and use it for at least 30 minutes a day.
  3. Earn my way off the blood pressure pills.
  4. Get the first-ever security section of Akamai.com up and running.
  5. Learn how to play one new song a week on guitar.
  6. Start recording the original music I’ve been working on.
  7. Figure out a plan to make a book version of The OCD Diaries. Or, more accurately, a series of books.
  8. Spend less time looking at my phone and more time reading old-fashioned books.
  9. Maybe make another attempt at reconciling with estranged family members.
  10. Stop using the e-cigs that have been a crutch since I stopped smoking.
  11. Be more patient with people, especially my children.
  12. Get to more security conferences (it’s a job requirement, anyway) and find a way to sneak Erin to some of them. [I won’t fit in your suitcase! -Ed.]
  13. Drink less coffee and more green tea.
  14. Get closer to God (I drifted a bit in 2013).
  15. Walk Revere Beach at least once a month.

I seriously doubt I’ll end 2014 will all of these goals achieved. But if I make serious progress on some of them, I’ll declare victory.
