Happy Holidays NT bros. 
What are your upcoming New Years Resolutions?
I personally want to read more. I have had a severe case of ADD in my life, which has caused me to avoid all types of reading. I personally don't even know how i got through high school and college because I avoided all readings, but I somehow did.
But honestly, I'm 25 years old and I've realized that i'm not a kid anymore. I listen to other people my age have sophisticated conversations about the government, the economy, the environment, and many things that I unfortunately don't know too much about because of inability to sit down and read some damn books. I watch movies and documentaries but those don't teach me enough. I don't want to use my ADD as the only excuse, some laziness has also been a factor. I graduated college and have a degree but I honestly don't feel very educated. /EndConfession
But anyways, recently I read "What color is your parachute?" (A great book on job hunting and finding a career that best fits who you are) and I enjoyed it.
It was a great book, it's already given me a lot more confidence with interviews and job-hunting, and its inspired me to get some more books and learn more. After the holidays are done i honestly want to make it a goal to read more books in my spare time and watch less t.v. If anyone has any suggestions i'd love to hear them. Not interested in fiction, i want books that help me learn about relevant aspects of life (economy, environment, etc.) Things that I can have conversations about.
So how about you my NT brethren? What are your personal goals for the upcoming year?
