</p>
<p>I&#8217;d like to take a moment to wish all of my readers a Happy New Year. All three of you. Don&#8217;t fret. I have made it my goal, <a href="http://www.arwentaylor.com/the-end-of-the-year-emo-post/">among other things</a>, to add at least one more reader per month to this blog.</p>
<p>How about you? What goals will you work to achieve this year?</p>
<p>In case you need any help with your goal setting, here is an article that I wrote last year about <a href="http://www.arwentaylor.com/how-to-set-goals-and-achieve-them/">How to Set Goals and Achieve Them</a>. There is also this one, <a href="http://www.arwentaylor.com/how-to-break-bad-habits/">How to Break Bad Habits</a>, that should be useful as well.</p>

<p>I am sooooooo full. But before I keel over in a Tryptophan induced coma, I wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving.</p>
<p>Every year Thanksgiving gets overlooked as the retail stores rush us into the Christmas Season where we are expected to sell a few organs and buy Playstation 3s or HDTVs. Let us take a moment to truly reflect on and be thankful for all that life has given us.</p>
<p>I am grateful to have a great family as well as great friends and great readers. And as frustrating as it can be sometimes, I am grateful to live in a country where a person is able to achieve their dreams if they work hard and smart enough.</p>
<p>So now that you, too, are stuffed and fighting of a bad case of the naps, tell me what you are thankful for.</p>
