    We all make new years resolutions, but sadly most people don't follow through with them. Something tells me that's not the case for YGGers.

    For me, since January 1st I have...

    Formed an LLC
    2 website concepts in the works
    1 new website completed
    Acquired 2 other small websites
    YGG has been heating up
    Closed a house deal
    Re-stocked up on cars
    Recovered all money spent around Christmas
    Not strayed for one day from my workout regime. Supposedly 21 days makes habit, so I'm there
    Made numerous new contats & friends
    Really been the best husband I can possibly be

    Amazing what getting off your ass can do for ya, right?

    Shake 'n Bake - your turn!
    Shake and Bake baby!

    Since January 1st...

    Got married!!
    Went to Mexico for a week
    Unpacked almost all of our wedding gifts
    Set a meeting with director of graduate studies at wife's college to visit a night MBA class
    Started looking for GMAT materials
    Teamed up w/Eric on BabyBought
    Pounded out quite a few posts for BB
    Bought findrentals.net and started developing behind the scenes for profit
    Worked -- hmm really cuts out on the entrepreneurial stuff, huh?
    Started devotionals at night with wife

    Still to work on:
    Continue developing sites
    Start exercising 3 times/week (dealing with dizziness issue after Mexico trip, still struggling, makes exercising hard)
    Spending more time with wife
    Cooking dinner on Saturday nights
    Work on dessert cooking
    (Free) advertising for home inventory services

    So, getting married took a chunk of my January. Need to get working...

    -Launched 1 of 2 projects (the.ad.blog) already
    -Started a few new online projects with some YGG's (nuMuxic / SHClips)
    -Bought a couple domains to flip.
    -Tripled my Adsense revenue from December
    -Opened my LLC Business Checking Acct.
    -I'm being more organized (this is a big one)
    -Drink Tea 5 times a week. This is replacing my diet sodas and coffee...which is somewhat business related.

    The others aren't attainable by now, so I don't feel like I am slacking.

    BTW, I musta started a trend with the LLC thing.

    SSM,

    Why the goal of drinking tea?

    Mainly because it is a healthy alternative to soda, energy drinks, and coffee. I find it relaxing at night too (a decaf version) when I am wrapping up my day.

    jam (and other Canadian speaking peoples of this website) - are Americans the only one's that call college "college"?

    also - i know what you mean about puttin the ole liver into a coma. I paid my dues for 4.5 years, one of which as the proud President of my fraternity, in college. And now as a bartender/DJ at a nightclub. Sleeping until 2pm is normal (as it's 536am when I write this just about to shower and go to bed).

    Mandiga. That's priceless. Do you sacrifice live chickens before starting a new business?

    Major Leagues 4 Life. Wild Thing I think I love U. Major League has to be the best worst movie that plays monthly on USA.

    Eric,

    You didn't answer my question. Do you sacrifice live chickens before starting a business? I think you owe it to all of us YGGers if that is your secret to success.

    Shit...yes...I do. But only sick female baby chickens, and not because it makes a difference to Mandinga, but because they're easier for me to catch.

    I see tea on your list.... might i remind you, my family run business.

    www.Hasuteas.com

    100% organic, no artificial flavours/colours.
    the healthiest tea you can buy.

    If your interested in a type of effect that the tea can give you. let me know ill recommend something. (e.g. losing weight, being alert, lowering stress)
