In the age of information overload & hypercommunication, how do you disconnect? How do you find the stillness?

Ourspot looks like Facebook + Twitter
I’ve seen a lot about Ourspot in the last day or two, but very little about what I think is most obvious. Ourspot looks shockingly like Facebook + Twitter. That ish cray.



2012.
The new year gives us all a chance to reflect, rethink, & recharge. Sure, resolutions can be made at any time, but January 1 is a fresh start.
2012 will be a good year. A year of saying yes & new experiences, a year of developing good habits, working hard, learning, building, being healthy & happy, & spending a lot of time with friends & family.
Most of my resolutions this year are not just for 2012, but goals I wish to work towards & achieve for the rest of my life.

Learn. More about the things I already know, & (more importantly) about the things I don’t. This means reading, taking classes, meeting new people - whatever it takes, really.
Tone up. I’ve always been in pretty good shape, but I’ve always had a goal in mind that I’ve never reached. It involves a 6-pack, & I intend on getting there this year.
Dunk a basketball. No real reason here. Just something I want to do.
Friends. I’m lucky to have a lot of great people in my life, many of whom I don’t see enough. In 2012, I’ll spend more time with the people that matter to me.
Travel. Since I graduated high school, I’ve lived in Boston, Los Angeles, Buenos Aires, & NYC. I’ve also traveled to Austin, Chicago, & Madrid. I’m all about experiencing new places, & this year, I’ll do more of that.
Eat better. I’ve gotten away with eating poorly forever. Thanks to my parents for the good genes and fast metabolism. But when I eat well, I feel good. & it’s good practice for later in life, when eating well will not only be a good idea but a necessity.
Family. I love my family & I intend to spend more time with them this year.
Meditate. Maybe not in a literal sense, but maybe yes. I more mean, taking time every day to reflect. I think that’s important.
Say yes. I live in NYC, the best city in the entire world (apart from Philadelphia). & too often, I find myself at home, being lazy. This year, I’ll say yes more than I say no. I’ll try new things.
Build. My brand. My blog. Side projects. More of all of that.
Not a lot of measurable goals (apart from dunking a basketball), but I know that if I incorporate these objectives into my life, I will be happy. & that’s all that really matters.
Hope to be writing a lot more here - so see you soon! & have a fantastic 2012.
Maybe the best scene from a movie I’ve ever watched, & I haven’t even seen the full film.
Truth.
