I know we are a couple of days into the new year, already but I just got back from holiday yesterday which explains my absence over the Christmas period. I hope everyone enjoyed themselves and went into a food and drink coma like I did.

As is customary at this time of year, I’ve got several resolutions that I will be attempting to stick to this year.

1) Stop over-stressing. I spend too much effort into making sure that I don’t use clichés and obsessing over details etc, that I end up hating what I’m drawing and then delete it, only to regret that later on. I drew so much this past year, but I’ve only got a handful updated on my tumblr. So for 2012, I need to just STOP and start seeing the bigger picture and relax.

2) Start offering commissions/art requests.

3) Lose weight. Pretty much everyone has this on their lists, but I’m going to really try and get all this extra weight off. I’m sort of half-way there, but I need to get rid of the rest. I’m not going to do any type of diets because I don’t have the willpower and I love my food too much. Just simply, eat less of everything and move about a bit more.

4) Get organised. This can really apply to all of the above, but it’s true. I need to start organising myself a bit better and stick to something that resembles a routine. I can’t keep doing late nights anymore and I need to get up early to exercise. 

5) Embrace the unexpected. I tend to run scared once something unexpected comes my way. I need to start just facing them, regardless of the situation.

6) Post more. Again this is direct result of what happens from my over-stressing. I start to second guess myself then get frustrated, then I delete which equals, nothing to post, other than reblogs.

I am hoping that at least 50% of this does get accomplished, if not the more personal related ones that at least the art related ones. I will start posting stuff as soon as I finish off some work that I have left over from the last year.
