2010: stay in your lane

an adorable co-worker of mine has taken to giving every new year a theme or motto. the idea behind it being that you apply said motto to everything you do, like her 2008 motto "balls out" wherein she (for lack of a better definition) grew a pair and did things she might not have done otherwise.

my office was chatting about themes for 2010 and came up with some great ones (my personal favorites being "stay in your lane," "bump it" and "what's in my box?"). does anyone have any suggestions for mottoes to live by in 2010? would love to get your input!

i was also trying to set some realistic resolutions for myself this year, which is something i've struggled with (like many people) in the past. last year's plan to be vegan lasted only a month or so (my birthday's in early february, and i couldn't resist eating a tasty morsel of animal product goodness).

this year, i'm hoping to resolve the following:

• finish reading any books i've only read half-way through
• eliminate as much of my debt/loans as is humanly possible
• learn french and swedish
  
• and...?

that's about all i have for now, but i'm working on more. those are some very big undertakings, but i'm ready to tackle them. bring it on 2010.
