Before everyone jumps on the gun, remember the following (according to wikipedia):

  • The percentage of people who actually realize their Resolutions is about 12%;
  • You have a higher chance of realizing your Resolution if you have a system where small measurable goals are used;
  • Women succeeds 10% more if the Resolutions are made public (for example if you write it on teamliquid.net!)


So, what I want everyone to do are:

  1. Write down your new year resolution (thus making your resolution public);
  2. (If you are not already one) Pretend you are a woman for the year of 2010.


So here's mine:

+ Show Spoiler +

  1. Study 3-4 hours every day no matter what happens (and spend less time on the computer);
  2. Get one paper published;
  3. Spend one hour on studying Japanese once every week.



Happy New Year everyone~

EDIT: Perhaps a good idea is to revisit this thread one year later and evaluate how much of the resolution is actually realized.
