    Default New Year's Resolutions

    I've been inspired to set some poker targets for the year. I was hoping folks would summarize their goals in this post. I think we newbies would benefit either from the regs' current goals or past goals they set and accomplished when they were starting out.

    Here's mine:
    1. Earn $100 profit + $100 added br each month for 2008
    2. FREAKIN KILL NL10 (10ptBB/100 rate over 20-25k hands)
    3. Win at NL25 by April earning +3 ptBB/100 rate
    4. Win at NL50 by by October (w/ 2k br).

    Poker is a hobby for me, but I think having the "pro mindset" to certain aspects of my game will help me learn more, win more - and heck, what could be more fun than that?

    Speaking of fun, here's my final resolution:
    5. Have more sex.

    LoL. I can get obsessed with poker and let it get in the way of kids, family and romance. So this year, my resolution is to make poker productive and fun while not getting in the way of anything else that's productive and fun.

    Weigh in with your poker NYR's, the serious and the cynical.

    Edit: Thanks...didn't see the NYR thread already started - I will head over there to see what's up!!

    soaking up ethanol, moving on up
    Get better at poker
    Build roll to $5k by April (from the initial $200 end of August, difficult while working fulltime - but hopefully achievable)
    Spend May-July finding out if pro-poker is a lifestyle I want

    Ambitious? dunno, anyway, no more poker this year.

    About to go out for a 15km hill run, working towards a Jan 15th goal of running a new personal best over 5km, in line with running a decent 10km in april. Get back, shower, and time for some time-slut party...

    what else?
    Climb 5.13+
    Surf more
    Stay solid in Spanish, become fluent in German
    More live music - only been to five gigs this month
    Get some shit to my editor...
