Things I’d like to accomplish in 2009

I was browsing today and I stumbled upon a blog that had an entry about plans in 2009. And it got me thinking… I HAVE TO GET MY SHIT together. 2009 started out pretty low for me, as I work for an IT company right now and with the recession the future is not so bright. I always wanted to run a design studio or a coffee house, I just never had the money (read: GUTS) to start it. But as I don’t really like what I do now for a living and considering the grim economy I might be forced to think really seriously about trying to make something on my own. On top of that, looking back on the past two years, I haven’t evolved a bit – regarding my personality – I can say that on some levels I devolved. And that pisses me off every morning; I take a look in the mirror and I want to spit in the fucker’s face. So the things I have to consider seriously this year in my opinion are:

- quit smoking – I don’t wanna die. I love smoking, but I love things around me better. I have to quit. And it eat’s up my money on top of that;

- make a clear plan on how to feature myself on the internet – delete old sites, centralize all the stuff in one place;

- force myself to make time for evolving (webdesign and photography) – on schedule, because otherways I’m too tired / lazy?

- make money with something I like doing – I think this is the most important.

These are just a few things I want from 2009. I hope it will be a year of change for me (us) and maybe even if I will have the same “official” job next year, I will be doing stuff that I LIKE, and making money out of it.

So, what are your plans? Have you thought about it?
