Minimize, donate or toss what I donā€™t need. Eat slower, choose healthy over gratification. Try to Qigong daily. Itā€™s good for focusing on breathing. Read more, books, not on the screen. At least a Paperwhite. Actually the above is a good start šŸ™‚ ---

Resolutions never stick. So Iā€™ll just focus on whatā€™s in front of me. Lose some weight. Get good grades so my scholarship doesnā€™t drop. I need to do more things I used to love. I donā€™t play guitar anymore. I canā€™t read for pleasure anymore. I donā€™t watch tv or movies on my own. I donā€™t listen to music unless Iā€™m in car. My cameras just sit in their cases and my leather projects remain unfinished. I just canā€™t find the joy I used to. ---

Mine are pretty simple: 1. Feel better about my phone use 2. Keep doing the good stuff I started in 2024 3. More time on hobbies I like, less time on hobbies I maybe donā€™t want as hobbies (aka yo-yo more, certain video games less) ---

You could also just do ā€œhomevideosā€. I think that could be a way to still capture a successful trick or a moment in your life. And then just showing ppl in your personal space. I have a dumb-phone for years now, because I realized, that I have a way to addictive nature to have a small entertainment machine always around. And on the current one I can make photos of whopping 3MP, but because MMS service is being abandoned, I can only show them ppl on my phone screen directly and I find that relaxing and also somewhat beautiful. ---

Chicken-legs are evolved Dinosaur-legs. And if you accept a Kasuar as a chicken too, then you may call your noodles, T-Rex-legs. šŸ™ƒ ---

@GraysonYoYo Honestly Iā€™m not sure if the regional will be coming back since Iā€™m not an organizer for it, but there is a contest coming up in the future (most likely April) that is still in development that should be helpful for players in the central US šŸ‘€ ---

@GraysonYoYo No problem! Hope you had a fun time FL states! Yeah it seems like there are more contests on the coasts than in the central US, but MWR is in Minnesota in June and thereā€™s also a MN state contest (but I know MN is a bit far from SC). UYYC should be in St. Louis, MO this year so that could be a good option as well thatā€™s not as far! ---

I asked one of the organizers recently and they confirmed there isnā€™t gonna be gulf coast regionals, and likely not a regional in the southeast US in general, though, I am hoping to make that contest in April, which should be reasonable, since I would assume it takes place the same time as the club meet lol [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/new-years-resolutions/416049.md?page=2)
