This is more about the process that I’ve been going through to come up with new years resolutions (groan – wonder if I’ll manage to keep to them this time..).  At least they’re written down now, so I can  look at them in a years time, although I suppose I should look at them again before next December!  I’ve no idea what 2010′s resolutions were.

I’ve been through a process of reflection, of my life as it currently stands and how I would like it to be.  To do this, I’ve spent a week away from work, away from London, staying with the folks.  I’ve learnt I can only truly reflect when I’m away from the situations I’m reflecting about.

So here they are, my New Year Resolutions for 2011:

Work

• Work less (less hours at work – not necessarily less work)
• Use all my annual leave – take holidays more regularly

Life (Balance)

• Leave London more often
• Visit family more regularly
• Do more walking again (I’ve just bought Time Out – Country Walks near London which has 30 walks all accessible by train from London)
• Complete all 30 walks in the Time Out book this year.
• Read more – start reading on my commute to work.
• Play sudoku and do crosswords – wake up those brain cells!

This is quite a specific list, so lets wait and see what 2011 brings and if I manage to achieve any of them.  An awful lot of this seems to hinge on being at work less….!

Best wishes to all for 2011!

Hello world!  That famous programming adage.

I’m not sure what this is going to turn into – if anything at all.  Most likely just random musings but hopefully with a few useful things thrown in along the way.

Let’s see what comes out – hopefully more than just ‘hello world!’
