It's the end of the decade and as always it's the perfect time to reflect upon my own life and determine how things are "really" going as well as committing to make the necessary course corrections.

As such as I've spent of lot of time lately contemplating to see if deep down I'm actually happy with the direction that my life and career are heading. Unfortunately for me - I'm not sure that they are.

That's not to say that the last year has been a failure. There have been quite a number of positive changes that I've made in the last year. I’ve received a fair share of extremely positive feedback and recognition both professionally and personally this year. I was able to successfully end some professional and personal relationships that were draining me.  I was able to take the family on another vacation enjoying both Disney World and our first cruise together. I’ve learned that I really like mixed drinks with Patron in them. I was also able to find and begin work on learning a new hobby (but more on that in some future post).

Now I'm not a big believer in "New Years Resolutions", preferring instead to focus on goals (1 year, 5 year, etc), but when life itself needs some radical changes it requires going beyond just simple goal setting. As such - I present below (for accountability) some of the ideals and goals for the next year that I will be using to make a life course correction.
