Yes, I like long walks on the beach and my mother-in-law's cooking, and yes I have a BA and a full-time job that I love.
But do you think I finish anything else that I start? Well, in my mother's own words she puts it in layman's terms, "Kerry, you don't finish anything you start. You're just like your father." Now, I love my Dad, I really really really do! (So Dad, if you're reading this, I really do love you) but come on, he has delved into many a thing, including but not limited to: his private pilot license which he doesn't keep current, photography, numerous business ventures (the latest is only alive because my Mom runs it), scuba-diving with rescue training he never finished, and finally and most importantly: getting his journeyman's card. He's a fabulous and hard worker, but he just doesn't finish anything he starts. We've lived in our house he built for 15 years, and there are still things he hasn't finished.
I've inherited a lot of great qualities all around, but that is one I am putting a stop to this instant.
Over the next year, I will document my New Year's resolutions and how I am keeping them, what I am doing to progress and finish projects, and ideas, tips and tricks to get the job DONE. Completed. Finito. Terminado.
