Sorry if I confused you by the title of this post, but today, March 21st, is the new year, so I thought I’d send some warm wishes your way.

Still confused? Well, along with being the first day of spring, today is Navroz, the celebration of the Persian New Year. It’s a bit of a big deal in my family, and we’re not the only one: millions of households around the world will be celebrating the holiday today.

In honor of the new year, I’m making some goals for the upcoming twelve months. They’re not quite resolutions, because I won’t be upset if I don’t get them done, but they are large goals that I hope to work towards as this year goes on:

• Learn how to play the guitar.
• Learn how to ride a bike.
• Find new meaningful work.
• Launch Cinegasmic.
• Try out some yoga (not sure what kind).
• Save more money and invest it wisely.
• Buy a video camera and create video content.
• Start eating healthier.
• Make valuable connections in my industry.
• Slow down and unplug.

I’m going to need your help in making a lot of these happen. I need places to find cheap used guitars and bikes, suggestions on what good beginner camera to buy, ideas on what type of yoga is best for me, and introductions to the right people who can help me in my career development. Let me know if you’re willing to help in any way, I’d really appreciate it.

In the meantime, enjoy the new year. Navroz Mubarak!
