________________Don’t stay up past 2 am without a good reason


Make this your internet start page to be reminded each day
Also paste a print of this by computer monitor

Check in at 6 months (July 1st)
and be at least half way through all quantifiable resolutions.

Don’t start regressing in areas you are doing well in.
Continue swimming, and Pilates.
Stay addiction free, don’t start eating crappy food, don’t get lazy in general.

You’re not getting any younger. Many of your friends are settling down,
and you are not as far along in your art as you hoped to be by this time.
Don’t let down ten year old Ali. Be more awesome.
