1. Do more things.

By that I mean to minimize the time I waste on the Internet and come up with more types of things to do with friends. Kind of tired of the coffee shop/restaurant/bar outings. Went to the country house recently and we played hockey and board games and that was so much better! I need more of that in my life.

2. Be a more helpful person.

I want to be the person that starts cleaning up at the end of a friend’s party, that helps you learn how to drive, that brings a cake to the dinner. I’ve always been happy to do those things, but often I had to be asked or see someone already cleaning up that I would help. Time to take more initiative by myself :)

I don't know why... but this is something that when I see it, my opinion of and respect for someone ratchets up a few clicks immediately.

Yeah, I always appreciate these peeps at my own parties so time to become that person myself! I think it's little considerate acts like these that make for a pleasant person to be around :)

Yeah, internet is a huge time sink for me too! I just starting singing lessons and bought a theremin, so I've got new musical interests to help me be less digital.
