I went around asking for some New Years Resolutions from some in-the-know New Yorkers last week.  I will be sharing with you their answers tomorrow but thought that famegame's Tatiana Platt came up with quite a resolution, one that deserved it's own post:

"My New Year's Resolutions for 2009 are about being more inspired and taking wisdom from the amazing books I have read this last year:

#1 Trust my gut (Outliers, by Malcolm Gladwell)

#2 Live in the moment (The Power of Now, by Eckhart Tolle)

#3 Try a new profession for a day (Hurt Yourself, by Harry Hurt)

#4 Teach a class (Schooled, by Anisha Lakhani)

#5 Stay home more (Gilding Lily, by Tatiana Boncompagni)

#6 Raise a healthy baby (The Baby Book, by Sears and Sears)

#7 Get to know my neighbors (One Fifth Avenue, by Candace Bushnell)

#8 Be creative (Lulu, by Lulu de Kwiatkowski)

#9 Be environmentally aware (Hot, Flat and Crowded, by Thomas Friedman)

#10 Write the book I have been talking about writing!"
