Feel free to ignore this note if u busy, it's a lot of writing. it really ain't anything important or interesting for real. more like a list.Just somethings that'll be keynote to me that i may want to check back on, something more permanent that i'll be able to reference later on.

1st.

... THE RESOLUTION. almost everybody does these and the good ones stay on track for about a month or 3 but i plan on carrying this one out for the remainder of my life so here we go.

"I'll just look into the mirror, and I make a promise to myself that after this year, I will look at the same mirror, and say you did everything you could." - Allen Iverson, Chevelle Harris

Very General but applicable to everything in life. as long as i'm givin 100% to everything i put my mind to i can look at myself right.

2nd.

... 7 MONTHS, 14 DAYS. this applies to several subjects including my Faux birthday(it's really on the 23rd). I have Plans, mentally, physically and success wise. The Mental and Success may not be complete by this time but they will be well underway, as for the physical... if i don't accomplish what i set out to do on this date, it's official that i'll never get it done.

3rd.

...CONSISTENCY. this is really covered in 1, but goes more in dept with reference to my art. this year i put out 25 pieces of art including 3 tattoo's. that 25 pieces represents a 1/3rd of my gallery that's on my DA site. let's check the statistics, i been on DA 5 years, been drawin all my life... and only have 75 pictures??? Breaks down to 1 picture every 24 days, 1 measly pic every 24 frickin days.... thas not bein an artist..... thas being bored and deciding to doodle some shit. now i'm not gone BS myself by sayin imma draw/color/render a pic a day, but i'm damn show gone have to step it up. my goal here will be to set a number that pushes me but doen't burn me out artisically, currently im going to shoot for 2 to 4 pics a week.

4th.

...ACCEPTANCE. last year i found myself in a situation where i wasn't myself, where i wanted to be somebody else, wished i was somebody else. i rejected who i was which was a huge mistake and wasted an enormous amount of time to regain myself and even after that, the problem remained. so that's why this goes on the list, not as a goal but as a reminder.... that I ACCEPT WHO I AM AND WHO I'M NOT. yet, though i accept it i'm not settling, i'll continue to strive towards the goals i've set not for anyone else but for myself.

so there's my 4 in 1 goal. If u read this, you're either bored, or u really give a damn. for the first i say "ha ha", for the latter i say "thanks".
