Everybody can be cynical, dare to be optimist.

Self discipline
While proceeding to the next phase of the plan, I really need to train up my self discipline.
To do so, I had started executing my diet plan (that I put on hold indefinitely due to my inability to continue it for long).
Here's what I plan to do everyday.
40 minutes to 1 hour of Nordic walking every morning.
Start with 40 minutes (3.6km) and gradually increase to 1 hour.
Today is day 2, I will continue the diet plan. I am responsible for what happen to my body.

Plan 2013
Relationship
I want to win my wife back, I want to see her smile again

I'll need a change of environment, some place I can start over and with higher pay
I need at least 50% more this coming year.
Body
To lose weight, from 113kg to 70kg
To lower blood pressure to optimum level
Mind
I really should get outside my comfort zone and start something, anything...maybe Wine Appreciation class wasn't so bad after all...
At least read a book a month, or finish half the books I bought over the years...
Spirit
Perhaps with this twisted mind of mine, I should really try to accept god...
Social (Friends & Family)
To see my parents more, be close to them
Finances and Possessions
I want to be earning 6k per month by the end of the year, and kick start a side business, F&B relater business.
To evaluate and start buying a mutual fund
What are the areas you want to expand on in your life?
The climb up the social ladder, to become middle class
What specifically do you want to achieve next year?
To attend wine appreciation class
What dream to you want to fulfill next year?
Change a job (changing a job is not a dream...)
With whom do you want to (re-)connect?
My wife
How can you make your life more simple?
Watch lesser TV
Where do you want to travel?
Prague
How can you achieve these?
With a lot of hard work and a lot of luck
I need an action plan...

Review 2012
After having the conversation last night, I couldn't sleep well. While I was trying to put myself into sleep, I figured, I really need to review my life, and here it is, my review for 2012 (a little late, hopefully not too late...)
Relationship
The relationship between me and my wife was generally good, we were happy together. We went to two short trips, Phuket & Hong Kong and enjoy our time together.
We also furnished our home, and we are especially proud with our kitchen.
Business
Not much improvement compare to the previous year, wanted to change job but no action was taken
I was given the oppurtinuties to join a formal colleague but I appears to blew it.
Body
Blood pressure higher, BMI still too high, morning exercise lasted only one month and I lose momentum to continue.
Mind
Not ready for changes and challenges
I appears to be deep inside my comfort zone.
Spirit
Still like being a free thinker, but sometimes I wonder if faith will make me stronger
Social (Friends & Family)
I only see my parents three times this year, I need to see them more often...
I feel more and more distance between me and my friends, not good...
Finances and Possessions
Income did not increase compare to previous year
Able to furnished the house with reasonable quality furnitures
Only have 20k cash in saving, not good...
What have you learned this year?
cook using cast iron enamel pots (I'm not sure if this is a valid answer...)
What were your biggest successes?
Able to cook boeuf bourguignon (I can only think of something like this, obviously I'm not paying attention...)
Have you hit your goals for the year?
Nope, I don't even have a goal...
What was the biggest surprise?
My wife bought me Julia Child's cookbook for Christmas
What do you want to follow along with in the coming year?
To enjoy cooking more
What do you want to end?
The laziness, the sloppiness...The don't give a fuck attitude...
Are you happy today?
Not really...
Are your loved ones happy?
Wife - Apparently not, Parents - Yes, Brother - Yes, Sister in Law - Guess Yes, Baby niece - Definitely Yes
About what are you happy?
The new born in the family
For what are you grateful today?
Still breathing?

First step
The first step of solving a problem is to recognize there is one.
What's my problem?
Laziness
Keep telling myself I'm not lazy
Watch to much TV
Surf too much internet
Watch too much porn
Always looking for short cuts
Always jumping into conclusion
Always thinking, never execute
And the list goes on...
And I don't know the answer to a question like "how do you see yourself five years from now?"
Worst off, I want to own a vineyard five years from now and I have no idea how to archive that.
