New Year and Resolutions

I hope all of you have a wonderful new year. Wishing you all of the success, love, joy and beauties in the world.

I usually don't make any new year's resolutions, just because I find that taking resolutions and keeping them for a month or so makes no sense whatsoever.
But this year I have two big things that I feel I need to do to get my life in order.

1) Start working on my spiritual life again. Meditations, reading books, getting in touch with people that I can talk to about my peculiar beliefs. All that needs to start again. I'm going to set a goal for myself for the first month to meditate for 15 minutes every day... then I'll increase that time by 5 minutes every month. I should be able to dedicate at least up to 45 minutes a day to this, even when I'm working and going to school. After the first few months and when the meditation has started paying off I'll move on to other things as well. But first I just need to reconnect both with myself and my beliefs.
Some of the things I want to accomplish is getting my body in shape to go do my vision quest out in the desert, and getting back in touch with my powers that I've mostly blocked out when I was younger because I was scared of them.

2) Work out twice a week no matter what. I should be able to make enough time to work out for an hour 2 days out of seven. I also have a free YMCA membership from work which means that there is absolutely no excuse for me not to go exercise. Walking Lucy for an hour can be switched instead of going to the gym once every two weeks, but I need to go hiking up hills or along the sand in the beach though.

That's it. Not a lot of goals, but two big ones that I know will be hard for me to keep. So I have to concentrate really hard on them.
Anyways, what about you guys? Any goals for this year?

Other small things I need to think about this year, but don't want to set as goals in fear I won't be able to accomplish them:
-Keep learning spanish, maybe pick up a new language.
-Allow myself to have fun and plan to do things that I've wanted to do for a long time. (San Diego Comicon is one of them, absolutely want to go this year... try to go to at least one Renaissance Faire this year... save up to buy myself more supplies and dollfie bodies to start up the business I wanted to start up last year.)
-Try to write in my diaries a lot more.
-Get back into writing snail mail letters to people, and get better at responding to emails in general.
