For a lot of people, the new year is about making resolutions.  Personally, I am all for setting goals but I’m not much of a resolution guy because I set goals throughout the year.  For me this new year has been an opportunity to get organized and get a bunch of things crossed off my ‘to do list’.  The year is only 4 days old and I’ve got 12 things crossed off my to do list.  Does that mean I can coast for the rest of the year?
