Today is the first day of the rest of my life!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

This is nominally a gaming blog, but it also collects the effluvia of my brain, so here we go!

Those of you in the know, may recall that the last major New Years resolution of mine actually worked out quite well. It was "Better Living through Technology", and involved me leveraging the technology of the world to help me step up and get through life.

Well, I've decided that 2010 is time for the next major resolution. I don't have a nice term for it beyond "Be a Jedi", so I'm going to have to stick with that. Basically, its the building and remaking of my Body, Mind, and Spirit. I've tried this previously, but it hasn't worked well.

I attribute this failure to "Do or Do not...there is no Try". So, I will "DO" and will post here. I've decided that the ennui I've felt of late is my own fault, and so it's time to move on and be the guy I can be!

So, lets start off with the following....

In the book, "The Greatest Salesman in the world", Og Mandino has a series of "scrolls" that one can follow for self-improvement. Whether or not you believe in a supreme being, I recommend his works as they are good for providing rules and structure to live by.

Here is a link to the text of "The Scroll Marked One" that someone posted.
