The danger of posting your New Year’s Resolutions semi-publicly is that a lot more people will hold you to them (or at least give you a hard time about not keeping them). I suppose the upside to doing so is that there is another level of accountability. In any case, for 2009 mine are (in no particular order):

1.) Practice the virtue of being present in all situations.
2.) Read through the New Testament each month.
3.) Strive for 7 hours of sleep each night (10:30 pm – 5:30 am).

It seems to me that New Year’s Resolutions and growth in faith have a lot in common. It’s easy to be too ambitious and quite early. The best course seems to be slow and steady growth over the long haul.
