New Year's Resolutions

For whatever reason, I am a bit behind on developing my New Year's resolutions.  It is always with some trepidation that I start thinking about this.  Perhaps it is because I have not completed some of last year's. (I am finally taking off the one about learning to play the guitar!) Beyond that, I think it also has to do with the fact that I don't have any earth-shattering things to add. After all, I am turning 50 this year, and I'm not interested in bungee jumping, running marathons or sky diving, so I need to get comfortable with the more mundane ("Take a walk outside every day"). Here are some of my resolutions: 

• Read 10 books this year. Anybody got any suggestions?
• Create quiet space. I heard someone say that "...passionate, purposeful clarity can only be found in silence", and who could not use some passionate, purposeful clarity every so often!
• Have meaningful conversations with each of my children once a week. They are in their late teens or early twenties, so their favorite means of communication is through texting. Somehow, I need more than the 160 characters my plan allows.
• Work out 4 times a week. Walking outside doesn't count...unless I am carrying a bag over my shoulders and it lasts 18 holes.
• Date night with my wife once a month - whether she wants to be with me or not. I need to work on my list of dining experiences for 2012!

What are you resolved to do this year?
