Musical New Years Resolutions

My posting has been irregular for the holidays everything should be back to normal after new years.

Everyone has made resolutions before, very few people keep them, I gave up on making them quite a few years ago, however, this year I'm going to attempt them again, and hopefully making them public will be extra motivation.

#1 Log Practicing

I've attempted to do this regularly before but always fail, I start and my practicing is much more efficient but then something happens – like leaving my journal at home and practicing in studio, or vice versa. My log is a small $2 notebook that simply lists what I practice then a dot next to that for every 15 minutes spent working on that thing.

#2 That extra hour

I've said before that I pull myself out of bed at 10am to start practicing (except Saturdays I don't start work until 4). I'm going to push that back to 9am to get that extra hour of practice time in.

#3 School

This one I've been planning for awhile, but I've attempted post secondary education before, and failed – mainly due to a total lack of motivation to do the work. So this year – come September I will try going back – this time as a music major instead of a psychology, or computer science student. If I wasn't going to school before so I could play guitar, hopefully going to school to play guitar will work out, and I'll finally get my BA.

#4 Redesign this Blog

Yes sometime soon I'll be overhauling the entire Blog to a nicer design.

So all my loyal readers – if there are any of you out there, what musical resolutions have you made for this coming year?
