Don't Care
By my estimation, at this point 96.7% of all New Year's Resolutions have failed. And I finally got this "JAFBG [XGC] prompt in my random selection.

It's time for new year's resolutions. What do you not care about doing in 2022?


Let's go over the most common resolutions, shall we?

1) Lose weight.

Did that, succeeded for a while, failed. Yes, I became a cliché. A new year isn't going to make an ounce of difference. Pun intended. Verdict: Don't care.

2) Exercise more.

This can overlap with 1, but doesn't have to. Again, don't care.

3) Drink less.



4) Read more.

That would involve doing something else less, so... no.

5) Stop smoking.

Yeah, still don't care.

6) Learn a new language.

882 consecutive days of learning French, and counting. I intend to continue. That's not a resolution; never was -- if you do the math, you'll see I started on some random day in late August of 2019.

Do resolutions work for you? If so, great. They don't work for me, so I quit trying, based on my core philosophy of not setting myself up for failure. I do try to do things to improve myself; just not based on the Gregorian calendar.

You could say I've resolved to not make resolutions. But that leads to paradox, so... whatever.
