What Did You Do With Your 2008?

By Ryan, July 16, 2008

Don’t ever think in terms of what you did in 2008. Forget 2008. It’ll be gone forever in 168 days.

Statistically speaking, even if all 100 thousand Frisco residents made New Year’s resolutions, the people who stuck with them for a year could not even pack a game at Pizza Hut Park... not even with free admission and a national TV audience. That’s because New Year’s resolutions are easy to give up on; if we don’t achieve our resolution this year, we stop trying... courtesy of the rationale “there’s always next year.”

There’s NOT always next year.

It’s time to abandon New Year’s resolutions. It ends up being a limitation rather than a goal. If you want to change something in your life, change it now! Don’t sit around waiting for January 1st. It may not come for you. Use the time that you know you have. As long as you’re alive, you can make your life better.

Quick history lesson:

In April 2008, FC Dallas played a game that was televised nationally by ESPN2. In an effort to create the illusion that Frisco residents care about soccer, the team tried to boost attendance by giving away free tickets. It worked... the stadium was almost half-full!
