New Year's resolutions

I've been thinking a bit about this, because 2011 was hard and I want 2012 to go a bit better. I've thought a lot about it, and in the end I've come up with one thing:

To be as kind and understanding to myself as I am to others.

I know that's not a SMART objective, and I can break it down into all sorts of concrete goals for exercise etc, but it is the overarching thing that I need to do this year. Maybe I should call it my mission statement?

Well spotted, that man!

The objective is only to be 'as kind'... I'm not setting the bar unrealistically high here!

(Joking aside, though, I am far less hard on others than I am on myself, which is where this comes from.)
