Resolution 0:
In honor of the death of the old year, I hereby sacrifice a part of my old self to complete only one task:
From time to time I will promise to do better in a situation X by taking action Y, wherein X represents a condition wherein I am faced with a conflict, problem, dilemma, etc. and Y represents a specific action different from the one I normally take.
So from time-to-time you may might see me type:
X= 20 straight white castles leads to bad diarrhea.
Therefore, Y= eat 10 white castles the first day and 10 the next.
I shall try to track my Xs and Ys so that when I successfully complete the Resolution Formula I can celebrate with a “Go Me” dance or some other expression of joy that does not violate solution Ys (taking the example above, I will not celebrate my eating of 10 white castles one day and 10 the next by eating 20 on the third day).
So to sum up:
X= Another year goes by and I change nothing even though I write down everything.
Y= Write smaller resolutions as the year goes on and celebrate the small successes.
