The Rule: No Reflecting.
Zero.
Not even for a moment.
More than
On New Year's Eve, you look in only one direction: forward.
Tomorrow, in the clear light of The Day After, you can reflect. And if you're too exhausted or hungover, put reflection off until Sunday, or, even better, Monday.
In the meantime, look forward.
Happy New Year, Hegemaniacs.
P.S. No resolutions, either. You have Goals: clear, concrete goals. You're not going to "Exercise more", you're going to "Walk one mile a day in January and increase the distance by a half-mile in each succeeding month." But formulating goals might involve reflecting on what you have or failed to accomplish this year, so table those until tomorrow, too.
