2006 Goals

It's that time of year for resolution and goal setting, so here is my list for 2006 (in no particular order):

1. Blog More
I'd like to use this blog to record interesting things in my personal life and to document any research or technical details about the work I do at Webmail.us.

2. Go to the Doctor
Since we have great health coverage at Webmail.us, I better start using it. My dad has had a lot of health problems recently and let's just say it's been a wake up call for me.

3. Get my weight to 175 lbs
I think it's a perfect weight for me, and this goal will force me to attend the gym regularly.

4. Oversee the creation the fastest webmail client on the market.
Speed, speed, and more speed. We are working hard on this problem and it is the focus of our development efforts this year. I'm relying on the great developers we have to help me accomplish this goal.

5. Become the best hitter on my baseball team.
The past two years I have been the second best hitter on my team. This year I really want to take over that top spot.

6. Shoot a round of golf under 110.
I would say under 100, but that might be a bit unrealistic since I never have time to practice.

7. Take my family to Disney World.
Velvet and I work so much that we rarely take family vacations, so I would like to take the kids to Disney World this year. I know Jordan will love it almost as much as Velvet. :)

8. Successfully manage our ever growing group of developers.
I think this will be my biggest challenge this year. It's also the challenge I'm looking forward to the most.

9. Bench Press 200 lbs one time
I use to be able to do this, then I stopped working out. I'm probably at 165 right now (I use to do this 8 times w/o problems), but I honestly haven't tried a low number of reps in a long time.

10. Find more time to spend alone with my wife.
For obvious reasons... ;)
