Richard Mondello : Better Oneself

Last year, before I started this blog, I was an avid Facebook-noter. To clarify, Facebook has a feature called “notes,” which resemble blog posts. On December 31, 2006, while I was feeling motivate, I posted this:

I don’t know what it is, but I’ve felt really good recently, overall. I want to keep the feeling going and have the best year possible, so I’m going to try to stick to a few ‘rules’ (resolutions)…
1. Reduce conflict, be more affable. Just be a better person, socially, and in every way possible.
2. Don’t overreact or under-react to things that happen. As I’ve learned, these things can control you.
3. Get Things Done.
4. Don’t get taken advantage of by anyone.
5. Go after things, get ‘em.
6. Have a little more fun.
7. Eat better.
8. Make backups.

Why am I putting these ‘rules’ on Facebook? Well, now I have a reason to hold myself to them.

Have a great year everyone!
Seriously, make it great. Stay safe. Stay happy. Don’t change, unless it’s for the better.
