Push ups won’t make your arms big, just more toned (if there is anything to time)
Happy New Year Dr. Phoenyx my favorite workout is walking with my family.
Made a NYR many years ago that I have never broken Don’t make any more NYRs.
New Year resolutions are not easier to maintain in warm southern hemisphere weather. Giving up cold beer when it is 40C+ in just never going to work ����
I guess I’ve already started with the fifth one. I’ve been practicing pencil sketching and digital painting for a while now but I picked up some watercolour materials the other day. I’m excited to try watercolouring, I even got those pens that you can fill with water. I don’t REALLY believe in new years resolutions honestly but I do tend to stick to things once I’ve started them so I’m going to use the new year as a push off point to start getting back to the gym. I was doing well with exercise for a year or so but circumstances in the last few months meant it got thrown out the window.
Also my other resolution is to get back into learning online. I started an animation course in “real life” a few months back and I noticed my online learning has kind of taken a backseat to that. (which I guess is fair enough but I have a Schoolism subscription that’s only been getting brief attention from me for a few months now….)
Also! It’s not really a “resolution” but I signed up for a game jam in the new year. I’ve never done something like that before but it feels like something I’ll learn a lot from.
As a Pom living in New Zealand for 18 years, its still weird having xmas/new year in summer weather, long days and no rain!
Yes there is more incentive to start new goals and activities due to better weather and you can establish these as you go into Auutmn and then winter.
Great videos, keep up the good work thru 2020.
Cheers Giles Blay, Timaru, New Zealand
This might be a really long comment, but I wanted to create small goals in every aspect of my life I want to improve, so I divided my resolutions into four categories: β’Self-improvement ; β’Self-care ; β’My projects/artistic goals ; β’Social media.
β’Self-improvement:
1. Draw more outside (as in observational drawings or any other kind).
2. Stop the envy (to remind myself that I’m on my own personal journey).
3. Dance more (something I really enjoy but don’t do much).
4. STOP PROCRASTINATION.
5. Say what I feel.
β’Self-care:
The usual, drink more water, do excersise, and feel more confident within my body. But also:
1. Grow my nails.
2. Learn 10 songs on guitar.
3. Read 6 books throughout the year (go back to reading habits I’ve left).
4. Asleep by 10pm, and up by 6/7am.
5. Keep a journal on my personal and artistic progress.
β’My projects/artistic goals:
1. Do character design sheets for my illustrated novel.
2. Do a short comic.
3. Do a short animation.
4. Do challenges past the half ( #Franuary #Mermay #Inktober #NaNoWriMo).
5. Finish writing my novel.
6. Learn basic french.
β’Social media
(all art related):
1. Upload 100 posts to instagram.
2. Try out youtube.
3. Make a facebook page.
I have never broken a NY resolution.
Simply by never having made one.
Resolution: enter some events during the year, so I have schedule excuses for ride
I always vibe with your videos! My resolutions in 2019 are to write/illustrate my own stories, build an updated portfolio, and to stop bringing my ego with me wherever I go… Happy New Year Bobby!
I decided to try figure out why I was gaining weight despite training I wrote the steps to get there. I’d to get metabolism tested and I never again had an issue. I ate my maintenance calories and no more and if I ate more I tracked it. I expected weight gain nope. The numbers were legit. Best investment I ever made. Added muscle too. Used to eat very little some days as I was upset at the weight I had on and the fact that it damaged my spine.
Now I didnt need to eat so little and that took getting used to. Lost inches. This year Mine is to hit a lower body fat
(not too low-risky) and stay there.
Best list ever. I like your inclusive, individualised approach to life.
I would add a other, close to your heart Si. Stop wasting time on rides. I love to waste time.
Like yourself, I love to faff about, taking time for photo ops and coffee stops, enjoying nice cafes, taking the views, riding slow enough to chat to a riding buddy, actually revelling in my rides and immersing myself in the enjoyment.
Rushing through every recreational ride like it’s a competition for sheep stations gets a bit old after a while. I ride alone a lot for this reason.
I do have a hill picked out for an Everest, but TBH, having done the math, I don’t think I would ever crack it. Planning on maybe looking at it in early spring, September here in Oz.
Also, it’s brutally hot here in Oz, and mostly on fire, so no, NY resolutions are not easier to keep. I never make them anyway.
I wasn’t expecting this haha. I’m single, can i be my own parner for this? I’ll just aim for two.
Wow, you also a Wim Hof fan? Cheers man, I didn’t think you could get any cooler as you were, but here we are. This stuff really changed my life, helped me stop getting sick all the time, deal with depression, even with a sudden death of my relatively young father. Cold/contrast showers are a miracle, especially if you can go to a sauna/banya before the shower itself.
My resolution is to finish everything I promised to do for other people, but never had the strength to finish properly.
Hey Alan, just wanted to say thanks. A few months back in one of your videos you recommended having a cheat meal that was earned. That really stuck with me. I was having a cheat meal (not day) once a week and was stuck. Since then, I MIGHT have a cheat meal once a month and am finally seeing progress again.
Hi Bobby
You totally changed my life, Hopefully see you In London workshop 2019 and talk with you. Honestly you are my Art & Life influencer.
I should have watched this sooner than today! I went to do my first ever 5k ‘Park Run’ yesterday and can’t walk today never mind get in a turbo session:(
Doing hundreds of pushups and sit ups is just silly. At least if the goal is to become stronger. Once you can easily do 10 or so, you only gain endurance. To become stronger, you should seek to increase the load, for example by putting on a backpack when doing pushups, and then progressively adding more weight in that backpack. But then, there is already something called bench press which will make this whole thing a lot simpler.
This is not at all what I was expecting, but I can get on board. I don’t see my boyfriend every day, but I can commit to this on the days we do see each other!
Resolving to enter your first race of the year in June, when the weather is good…β¦.Expect that the riders that you will be competing against will be race hardened from starting out the season in March, from racing in sub-freezing weather.
Started the Wim Hof Method because you talked about it in one of your video, I did it one week by curiosity, then one month and now it’s been 1 year and it has been a great help in my life, so thank you Bobby!
My resolution: to find someone who looks at me the way Ollie looks at croissants
I did a run of about 5.5 km on the 30th. I can pump out a 100 km ride anytime; so I didn’t think much of the run (I had no bicycle access). I didn’t recover from that until just today. The amount of pain in my quads absolutely surprised me. But I am going to start running a couple of times each week now in addition to the bike.
I haven’t settled on any resolutions yet, but mine will probably involve doing more painting and playing less video games. I want to challenge myself to spend a week at a time focusing on a specific subject, drawing hands for example.
Also I want to continue jogging outside every morning, although it’s kind of difficult when it’s winter here.
no such thing…making a resolution to a paper calendar number?? resolutions are every day, all day, each week, each month all year.
Resolution 2020 not to buy another bike, hmmm to sell bikes i don’t use, No not to buy another bike.
Mabey buy 1 bike only one
My new year resolution: ride 100k per week and watch more GCN videos
Awesome video, as usual, Bobby! You already know one of my resolutions: to get up and draw in the morning, rather than procrastinating. Some more goals are to meditate, do yoga, hone in on my spirituality, apply to more gallery shows even if I don’t feel “ready” or “good enough,” work on making an actual portfolio, and make more art than I did this year. I also want to work on having less negative thoughts. ��
Warm weather = Achievable New Years Resolution, Nope, Doesn’t work.
Seeing a fi’zi:k saddle on the wall upsets me. I literally have a white eBay saddle:c
alright, here’s a rough list. I’ll probably modify it in the next days.
Getting more disciplined and productive
Telling the truth
Learning Human anatomy
Keep posting every day on instagram
Doing the WimHofMethod and running every day, eating healthy
Learning Lucid Dreaming
Developing my youtube channel
Developing social skills further
isn’t the 5 seconds rule say that if food is on the ground less than 5 seconds its edible?
I’ve tried doing them before but it’s hard to keep up. So this year I’m doing something different. I’m using my resolution as a starting point rather than an end goal.
1. Get into positive habits, been applying that by meditating for 15 minutes every day and walking 30 minutes everyday. Once I feel like I don’t have to convince myself to do it I’ll do more.
2. Get to 500 followers on social media for my art page. I’m already at 350 or so, so it’s not too much. And then keep going from there.
3. Take an art class, in traditional medium. I don’t have a computer yet.
4. Get a computer. Nothing too fancy just somethig to do digital art in.
And 5. Improve on a field, currently that’s perception and dimensions to me.
As I do these through the months I’ll be increasing them, working on periodic goals rather than long term ones.
I’m afraid you’d be hard-pressed to do everesting on different hills in one ride, unless you live in Dolomites I suppose.
I’m not a person of resolutions but I’m gonna do 2 important for this year and i’ll commit to those: focus on develop my skills (which involves most of your resolutios so yeah, i’m a copycat XD) and the most important, help myself the way I help others. Instead of treating me like crap and constantly blaming, accusing and diminishing myself, I’m gonna talk and support myself like I do when I help others. with kindness and respect
Everesting was the highlight of my year last year, although choosing to do it on the hottest day of the year might not have been my best decision ��
Get my muscles back.
Treat the ones around me with more patience and care.
Paying off debt slowly.
Webcomic.
I already stick to my resolution no matter what year exercise and hydration.
This year I began to exercise, meditate, breath wim hof, change my beliefs for positive things, be grateful, but what changed my life most was going to the schoolism workshop in Mexico, I met my Idol Karla Ortiz and you, I keep working in the assignments that Karla gave me and now I am in a temporary job to save money and go to Lightbox and buy my year in schoolism. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
I’m Aussie and I can only think of one person that’s kept their new years resolution long term.
In 2014 after about 10 years of very little riding, my wife suggested I make a new year’s resolution to get back into riding. On January 1, 2015 I started riding regularly again. Over the course of the next five months I lost 65lbs and rode over 19,000km that year. Since then, I’ve become the obsessive compulsive cyclist I used to be.
Great tips as always Bobby! I love your streams and videos with the adorable little plant people:D My top 3 New Years Resolutions are to 1. Travel, take pictures and explore new cultures 2. Wake up at 7:30 every weekday to exercise and meditate for creative inspiration 3. Think of what I’m grateful for throughout the day!
My Favorite exercises is Walking, Dancing, Kickboxing, & I want to try Jumprope. Do you have a video explaining the 20/80 rule?
I just realized I’m watching way too much porn when your title card reads: “Cycling XXX miles” I thought it was like a sex thing!������
Set a goal for time on the bike or TSS. Distance doesn’t mean much especially when doing different types of rides.
In Australia. It is much easier to begin habits in the summer. When it’s 25 degrees every morning at 8.00am, it’s easy to ride to work!
I don’t make resolutions bc I jinx myself lmao I didn’t last year and made huge progress this year just work hard everyday regardless of holiday and the year ��
I’m going to ride a 200 km long brevet in my living room this year.
My new year’s resolution I will not use Strava anymore to my bike to work commute.
40c in Sydney lately, try giving up Ice Cream….Not a chance…SIGH.
hey I live in cali and fair weather riding… is totally a thing! Nearly all year too:D don’t let that fool you 5:30 am in the Bay Area still gets chilly with the cold pacific ocean breeze
I don’t have a significant other, so my new year’s resolution is finding one… ����
my goal, is understanding the fundamental, make some good portfolio, and get a job
3:10 Completing my Everesting attempt in June and thanks to Hank for turning up whilst I was about 12 hours in…and doing a few repeats with me.
My new years resolution for 2019 was to ride 10,000 miles in a year… I ended up riding roughly 14,188 miles and when asked what my new years resolution was for 2020 I said that I was gonna ride for me.
My resolution is to stop giving Rapha my daughter’s tuition money!
My two main goals for this year are
1. Make more videos than I did in 2018 (anything over 32!) I’m aiming for 3 a month but there’s a bit of wiggle room in case something comes up:)
2. Be kinder to myself. Last year I started writing down good things that happened, goals that I met or just things that made me happy on post it notes to put in an empty jar. Reading them back to myself and seeing how many there were in the jar when I felt like nothing had gone well was a great way to lift myself up and it’s something I want to keep doing. I’d never have remembered them all by the end of the year either so it’s a good way to track what’s happened/what I’ve achieved:)
I’m from Australia I ride every day. I rode in 39 degrees. I’ve given up on making that a new year resolution
Only resolution I’ve stuck to is not making New Years resolutions…:) Living in the Southern Hemisphere though the weather one lasts longer…
Being in Australia and fantastic summer weather makes it hard to find excuses not to ride or exercise. The only issue here is that you should already be fit from the few months of great weather before Christmas. So being in Melbourne does make it easier than when I was in Chepstow UK.
My New Years resolution: can’t quit any ride until I’m kitted up and actually riding…
My main goal… Is to get my art business off the ground, once and for all. I’m on the autistic spectrum and I have also suffered from depression and anxiety since the age of 12… And currently, at the ripe ol’ age of 25, I have been signed off from work since I left college at the age of 18. I have only worked for 5 months last year, only for it to be thrown back in my face, twice. I now have no money and no aspirations. However, my only aspiration/goal which is still strong to this day, is to be self-employed and/or an illustrator. Hell, I have even made the spontaneous decision to apply to go back to college again to study Level 2 art and design (I completed and passed level 1 art and design in 2012, only to be then kicked out afterwards as the tutors told me that I’m “not suitable” for level 2 “because of my learning difficulties”… Broke my heart. But 7 years later, I feel I am ready. Too ready, in fact… If not, then I will hope to study Business and Admin instead, in order to cooperate what I learn to my art business. I would rather keep going by doing what I love than continue on with life being miserable and following everyone’s expectations to find and work in “normal” jobs.
Phew, sorry for the long comment! I just feel the need to do so in order to get my point across:) xxx
Started a weekly goal tracking method-so far, it works! Getting more done than I have with setting an overall end goal. Little milestones are much more motivating for sure. xD
It’s not a resolution really but after being a lazy slug and getting fat last year, my goal now is to never let that happen again, ride my bike at least 4 days every week, eat healthy food 95% of the time, get my weight back down into the 150-155lb range (down from 180, I am currently 166lbs) and maintain all of this for the rest of my life, I’m 55 now. An extended goal here is to maybe ride the Mount Washington Auto Road Bicycling Hill Climb. http://www.mwarbh.org/ Maybe, maybe…..
Riding with faster rides is with the local professional when he would be on his recovery ride I would go with him and just stick on his wheel it worked and I realized my power and avg speed increased after doing this for 4 months
Running for less than an hour? If you don’t run AT LEAST an hour, why even bother to lace up the shoes? (This comment was brought to you by an ultra-marathoner.)
My new years resolution is to be walking again. Recently became a double amputee. Just did my third day of physical therapy.
Me, who is single af and has been for years: *sadly lowers head and walks away
i never set any resolutions, i’m already perfect in every possible way and the greatest human being to ever walk the earth and i’m the best in the world at anything i decide to do
-Learn cinematography and better composition with characters
-become a better karate instructor
-draw a page a day, or at least 3-5 per week
-Strengthen my anatomy skills
-learn to drive and get my license
-be a pro hobby artist lol
Im so unsure of all of these but they have been on my mind lately so im seeing how to make it all happen
I live in Northern California and my resolution is to climb from Colfax to Iowa Hill in the Sierra Nevada.
All the way down here in SA amazing sunny everyday (even in the winter unfortunately) just a pitty about the heat
I loved the video!
I’m stealing your resolution about being aware of the negative thoughts:)
As for my resolution they are:
1. Focus on my personal growth
2.Work on my personal project everyday
One of my resolutions is starting a new therapy so there will be one less problem between me and my life as an artist and the resolutions from 2018.:D
Thanks for sharing! (Is the motion animation on the drawings new?) Happy holidays!
I totally agree with the blessings one. I am a very pessimistic and anxious person, and I get easily upset when something doesn’t go my way. Realizing that I’ve taken soooo many good things in my life for granted really helped me change my attitude and my overall mood a lot. There are times when my brain would still have rebuttals like “so what if someone else is having a tougher time, it doesn’t have to be me” and I have to try harder to tell that part of my brain to shutup.
It’s more difficult (for me) to stick to resolutions in Jan in the southern hemisphere than in winter because it’s 30+ Celsius every day. Who wants to do anything when simply standing in the sun for half a minute makes you covered in sweat? Also icecream and frozen cokes are so incredibly refreshing.
I love the hack of “Ok just do step one, you dont have to do the rest”. So one of my goals is to open my sketchbook every day. If I just make a wobbly line, thats ok too! Im also going to rest more. Take some time to actually lie down on the bed.
In Taiwan, (northern hemisphere), pretty much optimal about now 1922C max today, sunny, but just as mood lighting heading out up the hills at dawn.
Just got in from my first ride of the year, on my return I crashed within sight of my home on an icy patch. No harm done but lessons learned, such as Gatorskin road tires and ice don’t mix at all and Northern Indiana USA in the winter may not be the ideal outdoor riding location.
Great video. I really like pilates and jumping rope when the weather is good is not a bad idea my daughter’s could join me.
My goal for 2019 is to go to Germany. It is also to become a better artist, learning more techniques, practicing art. I don’t have to shove more useless knowledge into my brain, I’m almost done with school, I’ll be able to to what I want to do.
40 degree days here in OZ makes us get up early to beat the heat 36c by 10.am out of water 20km from home is no fun. It is a cure for cabin fever though.
I recently found this channel, and I gotta say. Staying up at 4am watching these is actually worth the sleep loss. The art philosophies, and ideas shared are really inspiring. It truly makes me want to push myself and make myself known. Thank you so much for uploading these awesome videos.
1Start taking medications for my disabling depression, because I put a lot of effort in studying and improving my art in 2018 even if it’s hard to live normally with my condition, but I think I would have spent a lot more quality time drawing if I decided to take care of my health issues, so this is something I don’t want to compromise with anymore.
2Compromise a bit on the work side and take more jobs that even if they’re not “working for my highest goal” they will still help me get more money to be free to move towards my real objective.
what a great video
the resolution that i want to keep in 2019 is counting blessings
we Muslims count our blessings daily before bed and after evrey single ordinary thing
like after waking up for having a new day and chances, after wearing cloths, after eating breakfast or any other meal, when we hang out with friends and after doing our 5 Prayers everyday

My biggest resolution for the next year is to go and commit myself to art and taking it seriously. Up until now Its always been something I’ve been doing on the side and trying my hardest, but with no real artistic goal. But that’s changing now with my goal to hope and find out what my ultimate art goal is. That being said, I can’t achieve any goal that without practicing my skills so I’m gonna be aiming for smaller, more specific goals in order to pave that pathway into finding what I want to do. One of those smaller goals is to improve my art is to practice learning or seeing without thinking about it. I want to build a habit out of it so it becomes second nature and incorporate it into how I think when I go about my day, that way I’m always practicing the most important part of drawing no matter where I am or what I have on me.
I’m 27, I did an illustration degree nearly a decade ago and fell into an office job that resulted in me dropping art for over 5 years. I’m trying to rekindle my passion, joining schoolism today.
You’ve got a lot of good resolutions! I’d love to try the 90 minute goal but I don’t think I can wake up at 4.30 each morning. I’ll try and add it to the end of my work day instead!
My biggest resolution next year is to continue with Schoolism courses. I bought the year subscription in the summer sale, and I really want to study as many courses as I can as I’ve learnt so much already. Bring on another year of learning:)
Lol the old “any exercise less than an hour isn’t worth doing”since I got rid of that way of thinking my exercise has gotten much more frequent and diverse….. but it is hard to shake!
Hi Bobby! I actually rewatched this video after 4 months and realized that during this months my resolution becomes clear: I want to finish working on my project for an animation tv series, so every day I try to sketch something, writing down the stories and relationships between the characters, when I have more time doing some concepts. I would like to be able to pitch it next year. In the meanwhile, I’m also studying for improving composition (I’m following the class of the awesome Nathan Fowkes). Some days it is a bit hard fighting against the tiredness I can only do this in the evening after coming back home from work) but I want to realize these two things so badly that I always find even just a bit of time for going on. For example this morning I start writing for my story in a very VERY packed tram while I was heading to work. And thanks to that now I finished a part of the planning and I can start with the next step! And it was like you said, I was thinking “I could writing something…. but I am sleepy… and there are so many people… But no, I’ll do it anyway!” And then I felt like I should do this every day:D
I heard that turning things into a game is a great motivator, so for all my goals I have daily, weekly, and monthly rewards that I can get for accomplishing them. Working on my schoolism assignments for at least 90 minutes every day gets me a small cup of ice cream each day, and a movie night each week. Still working out the end of course goal, but it’s definitely something that’ll be worthwhile for me.
super sweet video! my resolve this year is: listen more than ever to the centered guidance from my heart=> believe and allow that i can feel good!
I had a few Bad years in a row, broken bones to more broken bones, hands to shoulder to a triple mandible break and a few teeth in the process… my resolution could be avoiding crashing (and kinda was) but when some people migth quit I chose to stay because the joy and mental health that brings is bigger, my resolution was comback in half of the time the doctor says I can, or the near time, and you know what I always find the way to do it, always close half of the time the doctors say and always making me stronger in a lot of ways, now a days the resolution still not falling craching or breaking any more bones, enough titanium in this body but not enough to compare to a bike frame.
New Year’s Resolutions:
1. Finish personal projects.
2. Make time for gaming.
3. Post more art on social media.
Awesome video where did you get that badass squat rack cause I need a new one!!!!
My resolutions for 2019 next to my usual artistic ones are daily meditation (even if it’s short) and weekly intermittent fasting. Feeling great makes being productive that much easier!
Great tip. I’m one of those all in people and I never stay consistent. looking forward to applying the information. thank you
My New Year’s resolution every year is the same: Don’t make a New Year’s resolution!
My most terrible resolution this year is to buy an expensive aero road bike ��
Love love these resolutions of yours! I’m going to be focussing on my health, including diet and daily routine! And doing at least 30mins of sketching/artwork a day to greatly improve over the year, and get looser and faster in my sketches in doing so. And I think I’ll try the negative thought changing thing!! Thanks Bobby:D
My main resolution for the year is trying to find opportunities to do the things I like without stressing myself out, I’m in school right now and I feel like I never have the chance to do my own personal work.
So I figured first off, I need to concetrate and get my work that’s due, done quick and efficiently.
Second, I need to find those litte gaps of time that I can work on what I really want without sacrificing break periods.
Hallo Global cycling
Which headlight are you using. The one you have mounted underneath your cyclecomputer holder? It’s look like a smart little headlight!
Hi. I love your tips and the info you give. My very favorite workout is dance fitness. I could dance for hours so incorporating the fitness aspect isn’t really that much of a stretch and I could do it forever!
Please Bobby make a video like this for 2020 too. I really loved this one and it was very motivating. I actually acted on my resolutions and now things have improved greatly for me. I even found a part-time job as a manga assistant, I couldn’t hope for better. Now it can only get better from here. I don’t think you’ll ever read this comment butin case you read it, you really encouraged me and listening to your videos while drawing has helped me not fall back into depression. Thank you!
measure rides in smiles instead of miles I buy it 100% π
Plus: running and cycling is super compatible and complementary at least for me
I never really had any new year resolutions, ever! Your video kinda made me wanna set myself some and I’ve been thinking about them lately and here’s what I got!
At least one sketchbook page a day. Sometimes I fill up more, sometimes I barely touch it and I really want to make that part of my artistic journey consistent!
-Actually use the tips from your ‘How to get more work done’. I did that for some timeand then I got distracted I want to give that another shot and make it real this time!
-Build some more healthy habits. I eat healthy, I excersise a bit but its not enough. I’ve developed back problems, consulted a physiotherapist and I want to make sure my back never gets bad again!
-Last but not least slow down! I am at a point where everything not art/health related I treat as procrastination. I need to stop! House needs to be cleaned, shopping needs to be done and I must change my aproach to those responsibilities. Otherwise those will drive me crazy. That’s not procrastinating, those are just housechores!
Oh, and I acted on that 5 min rule you were talking about and I bought a ticket for Schoolism workshop:D
Money well spent, not enough time for excuses to start poppin’ into my head. May as well add that to my resolution list!
we can blame Lance for Sram Red, carbon bikes and wheels, tour de france popularity, shimano dura ace evolution and an army of MAMIL’s who buy all the bike stuff we sell them!:)
You’re single-shaming me! I need to have you banned from all social media!
Hy. What a great video.
I don’t have a list yet for my new years resolutions, but I know that next year I want to be more patient with myself. In this age when everything is going fast, I tend to overwhelm myself with all the things I want to do, and in the end end up doing not so much. So patience. Doing one thing at a time and paying attention to it is better than having to much to do and ending up not feeling good and not doing that much.
Thank you for your videos. They are a real inspiration.
And happy holidays:)
“Ride with Faster riders” To keep my self esteem,Β IΒ do rides that I am the faster rider, Helps me with my training. And helps with my Β skills. Both on the front, and trying to hang on.
Running is for people who can’t ride bikes. There, I said it.
Mine are:
1. To participate in anime artist alleys
2. Visit either South Korea or Japan, been to Japan last year so I’m leaning towards south Korea more for this year.
3. Learn German C1 level until the end of the year or until February next year since I’m starting with my German course on 18 February this year, hopefully i can learn it in time. ( it’s a intense course so i will have a lot of learning to go through)
4. Produce more art this year
5. Read at least 30 books this year
Hey guys, Happy New Year you all. Little update from South Hemisphere. Here in Brazil, the summer is when it rains the most. When its not raining, it is scorching hot, and even if the sun isn’t showing up, it’s still hot and you could still get sunburn if not using sunscreen or proper clothing (damm UVA UVB rays). So the winter is where we can do as much miles outside as we want. During the winter this year here in Belo Horizonte we stayed more than 90 days without one single drop of rain, and as a bonus the heat isn’t that bad. Some days we get like 9c in the early mornings, cold for brazilians but not for many people from around the world.
I’m pretty sure all of those resolutions you just shared have now been added to my list.. ��
My new years’ resolution is to keep a positive mindset. When I find myself thinking negatively or saying something that isn’t exactly the best route to success I will turn it around by saying something positive. Example: I can’t figure out why hardly anyone is acknowledging my art BUT I found that I haven’t spent as much time on it and when I do spend more time, I see myself grow. Its all about growing and acknowledging our own weaknesses.
Mine
1. To draw every day for atleast 1:30 hours
2. Eat healthy
3. To do meditation
4. To wake up at time
5. To not stick to my phone
My resolutions are trying a lot of art style so that I can find my most good at,fundamental is also need to be improved,and the most important is keep watching your videos,nice job!
Not riding in the rain or bad weather? So after the first 4 rainy days you want to quit? I did 25 years, 34 mikes round trip to work and back, 5 days a week in rain, sleet, snow, hail, heat, storm whatever wthout fail, whatever there was when i opened the front door fom january to and incuding december. You presenters want to get your powder puffs out, i bet you couldn’t throw snow balls at school or play conkers or got sent home when the school heating went off and had to always wear wellies as your mummy told you, snowflakes!
I’m living in Namibia for one year. I got no rain problems here but temperatures over 35Β°C each day… Also not too easy but still better than rain and frost
Why do people wait until the end of the year to make their lives better? I’ve never understood that logic. ��
I’ve been trying to think about my goals/resolutions for next year, which I have struggled with a lot but I have managed to come up with a few. Also Katy Arrington, a life coach/artist, suggested using a word to live by for the year rather than come up with a new years resolution as such. It really resonated with me, so the word that I want to live by for the year is love.
All of my goals sort of resolve around the word love in my mind
-To love the process of creating art again
-To create for myself
-Only accept commissions if you’re genuinely excited by the art you will create from doing so
-Do what you want to do
-Don’t worry so much about getting your art out there
Lately i’ve been really struggling art wise and I feel like this things will help bring that back.
My resolution for this year is:
1.Draw 8hour each day
2.improve the fundaments
3.develop my own style
4.start making commissions
5.do more exercise
I’ve already started with this resolutions and I’m not giving up, I want to become a good artist so I have to work hard no matter what.
Thanks Bobby, inspiring as always. I like how these are focused on personal behavioral goals, rather than specific project goals like Read X books or Lose X pounds. I’m going to take these into consideration!
My main resolution is stopping being stressful. I mean, that’s not great stress, just a blurry feeling inside, that makes me do more things and in result not deep enough. So, less things, less running, more calm and quality.
I live in NZ and never really thought about resolutions being easier to keep due to now being summer. Maybe it is because I’m new here, and riding season is well underway. My resolution is to balance cycling with Yoga.
Oh Bobby, that’s a great video, it touched my heart when I heard your 6th resolution! I have periarthritis and my shoulders are often in pain and it was so reassuring to hear advices from you about such arm diseases (because, you know, it is easier to deal with something when you know you are not alone). Thanks a lot! �� Please keep doing what you do and keep being inspiring!
I actually already started some XD
Ive quit playing video games in order to focus more on my artwork and health
Clearly no-one is from Ahmedabad, India, where 8Β°C is ‘peak winter’. But then again, peak summer is 45+ (Β°C).
(Aussies and Floridans (is it Floridans, I don’t know) and Californians among other might know what I’m talking about)
Thanks a lot for your videos!
Well, people like me really need to count to 5 before start acting… Because many ideas are just a distraction from work –
I think ill take your #3 use 90 mins for your main goal. I will probably add 90 mins in the morning and 90 mins at night? Maybe not sure if i will get tired out but for sure 90 mins before i start the day.. That one for me will be a challenge… I hate waking up early…
My goals so far I have
1. learn to do math fast without my phone….
2. draw everyday
3. keep going to the gym
4. make a short 5 mins video of whatever. ( i always wanted to voice something…)
5. 90 min before starting the day
8. be organized and neat…
7, MAKE 2019 A TURNING POINT IN LIFE <3
Everything in moderation. I have had some of my best years following one or other of the featured resolutions, like “ride every day of the year”. The key is flexibility, in that case I counted any ride, indoor/outdoor, spin class, and some days just catching 15min on the trainer at 11:30 when I got home. The key was I kept it fun, and ended up really fit as a result.
In November I finally recovered my hand after a trauma it took almost 5 month, and started looking into productivity and New Years resolutions. I bought Law of Attraction planer, I red Dave Asprey Headstrong book and started applying all I red, and I started practicing Wim Hof method and many other performance boosting tricks. And it appears that great and might Bobby Chiu was thinking very similar thoughts somewhere at the other side of the world at the same time. Holly smokes.
The lure to running is real, until you give it your best shot for a week and realize how much it blows. Then you try again 4 years later and realize the same thing.
My new year resolution
learn new things and fundamentals
getting in shape
90 minutes for my drawing on holidays as i am 13 years old
using more opportunity
Here in Brazil, summer means go for cycling 4AM to avoid sun and heat. Won’t help resolutions at all…
I love this channel, and I hope to see more of you in 2017. Already signed up for the free jump rope ebook and Happy New Year!!
Thank you so much for this, man. I just started watching your videos yesterday, but I’ve seen like 30 so far, you are a peaceful person, and that’s really something in this business. Keep it up
Of maby The City Kolding in Denmark? We already had a visit by Obama this year and we have a design school
I was one of the folks who did a couple pushups when you mentioned them. The five second rule is a great idea, and I like the idea of a countdown. Hearing about how blessed you feel to have arms and how you framed the pain as part of a story even made me tear up a bit �� my resolutions are to 1. Read through the whole bible in 2019, with hopefully quality as well as quantity time. 2. Attend all my classes and do homework as assignments come up 3. Work on learning drawing and watercolor diligently, enjoying the process and applying what I’ve learned from all the amazing artists I’ve met or watched on YouTube 4. Commit to jogging/running three times a week 5. Count my blessings and pray for needs not just of myself but of others 6. Seek to bring joy or at least peace into my encounters with human beings and other wonderful creatures. God bless all and may your dreams come true β€
I tried plotting an “Everesting” course in CT without repeating any climbs. It was 300 miles long! Even on my steepest single local climb, it would take 58 laps of 4 miles each. (2 mi up, 2 mi down)
I’m a girl from Barcelona. I started cycling just less than 5 weeks ago and got introduced to clipless pedals on my second ride and did a 100km on my third one! My new year resolution is to improve my aerobic performance and be able to climb faster! I’m eager to see my progress in 6 months.
Last year’s resolution was to meet my British bois, and lose 30lb. Met them, and lost 15, so I think next year I’ll make it reachable and lose the other 15 ��
Sit-ups are vertuly useless so do a plank for about 5 minutes instead it’s more effective I’ve been working out for around 4 years now I make a resolution every year to get stronger and I make one to get better at drawing all I own be this point are things I can work out in I draw every day and I’m fairly fit I’m proud of my progress but I’m going to adopt one of your new years resolutions to do something new to get good at it and maybe become great at it
My new year’s resolution, is to copy at least 1 professional artwork a month to learn. Until the end of my of national service which is 2 years later.
Thank you bobby chiu you inspire me to start drawing Again four years I Stopped But after watching your videos you inspired me to pick up the pen for my New Year’s resolution im going to draw every day
You’re such a big inspiration. Your self discipline and hard work is just amazing. One of my new year’s resolution is to be more like you haha besides that I want to learn more anatomy and flow in my art. Gosh I’d love to attend the Schoolism live in Berlin, maybe I can save something before the tickets get sold out ;w;
These are some good resolution tips! I think the main thing holding people back with resolutions is their end goal. They shoot too high and get demotivated. You gotta set a lot of small goals to keep you going with each small success. I really liked your 90-minute goal! It’s something I need to do myself.
As far as my goals go… I only have one. Make a book!
I started this video just as my 60yo conservative mother walked into the room… I really didn’t think this through
Sounds like an awesome resolution going to have to recover from child birth first though
you are amazing Bobby,you be doing this for over a decade now, and there never was any bad advice you gave to the art community…and thats hands down, any advice i took 4 myself always gave my life a positive effect. always…….you be sharing true value…..all the best for 2019:-)
I’m from New Zealand, and yes I think it’s definitely easier to commit to a resolution when it’s not pouring down with rain everyday.
This is golden advice. My ultimate goal is to teach myself animation, I have a lot of lofty goals so I’m taking it one step at a time
I’m going to draw something everyday. Doesn’t matter if it’s just a smiley face, I just want to pick up a drawing instrument and put SOMETHING on paper.
Are you using some new audio kit on this video? Sounds richer than I’m used to and it’s great!
Just want to say your a inspirational dude. Your videos are uplifting and so are your amazing tweets. They’ve been helping me on my feet and keeping this fire inside me to create. From my profound love to your creations and words, Thank you.
Thanks USA today! Maybe now you can tell me how I should keep breathing or how I should wipe my ass after I shit. Oh USA today you are informative.
I really hope you get to see this comment. I bought a program/ book called 8 weeks to sealfit. Would love to hear if it’s a solid program or none sense. If you ever get ahold of it if like to know your opinion on it
I think I’m going to replicate my goals for this year. Watch 300 movies, (failed this one, watched a little over 200) read 150 books, keep up with morning yoga and meditation. 2019 ‘ll try to churn in at least 50 oil paintings. If I can’t I’ll cheat with some gouache.
My 2019 resolutions:
1. Going to Pop Culture event for first time. Since, I live in small city and no event like that here.
2. Do more art with a good story telling and not just ‘cool art’
3. Expanding my network, meet new people and make new friends
I love resolutions! Most people don’t really realize that you have 12 months of trying again and again until you find the tricks and hacks that works for you as an individual to reach those goals you want! Beginner in January and fluent by December! How amazing is that?:)
I’m going to attempt bullet journaling for 2019 to see if that helps me with motivation to have the satisfaction of ticking off successes of the day. Whether it’s making the bed or flossing or something bigger those markers will grow over time and that will be so rewarding! It will also give me reason to doodle more because I want to draw every day and I’m using a sketchbook to turn into the bullet journal which means I will have pen and paper in my hand every day anyway! Might just as well doodle.:)
I have plans to create a blog hopefully within 2 years, 2019 will be my trial run of running a hidden one, get the habit going, find out what I like and dislike and get rid of the beginner mistakes before I start for real. I also have character or creature design on the agenda for 2019. On top of that I want to do more photography 2019 than I did 2018 and more animal training. I hope to take more titles with my dog, refine my horses behaviors and teach my calf some tricks and manners before her teenager craze takes over her brain.:p
Lastly I will clean in my house at least 30 seconds every day. I want to build a cleaning habit so 30 seconds is plenty as a start.:) Oh and cut down sugar and perfect my water intake habit.
That’s my planned priorities. I’m already happy with my morning, and I already learn something new every day, I have already a habit of practicing gratitude, I no longer hold on to things that are harmful and focus on the helpful. It feels like reachable goals without feeling stress about it.:)
Everything sounds so inspiring so I’m interested in adapting some of those ideas to fit with me! Especially the idea of dedicating 90 minutes to your big goal. Right now I’m walking through life a bit without any sort of idea but I know I want to improve my art. A few months ago I saw a video named somewhere along the lines of “can 1000 pages improve your drawings?” and the video talked about picking up 2 500 pages packs of printer paper and try to fill those through the year. I don’t know if I’ll be able to finish those 1000 pages but I’ll try my best to at least get 500 done!
Ohhhhhhh, ride in the rain. I thought it said ride on a train. Dang.
All great tips Si. My goals are smaller (get faster so I’m not always last on the group ride), do a few more 100 milers, and explore and create new routes around my home.
I live in Australia. Half the country is on fire… supposed to reach 42 tomorrow (04 Jan)
Hi GCN! Could you guys make a video about different ways to keep up condition during really bad weather. For example indoor equipment… Keep up the good work, love the You Tube channel!
An orgasm once a day?! That means I’ll be seeing my boyfriend every fucking day and I am here for that shit! Who knew someone could care so much?! Thank you angry bald fitness daddy!!
claro re running!:)) About news years resolutions from people in the sth hemisphere, well I lived in Canberra for the last 3 years so that really wiped out any sort of fun, except for riding! Now I’m in Spain and have completely forgotten about the concept. π
My new year resolution, cycle a minimum of 10km every. I commute mon-fri 40km(ish), on the days I’m not commuting a 10km spin on the turbo trainer. I think that’s doable, except for the shoulder operation in February……..where it will be all turbo and good balance.
I made a resolution last year to not drink for 3 months. 12-13 months later I still haven’t had a drink. I am fitter than ever and made more money than ever in 2019. Not that hard.
The key is to set the goal small so that you can stick to it, then it easy to extend.
It really makes a difference on your mind and Body
How many of you guys cranked out some push-ups because of this video?
My favorite workout is Jiu jitsu, i am a black belt. Very good video!!!!!!
I’ve found that New Years resolutions are made to be broken! I don’t know anyone who has managed to keep them!
Make a resolution each day and live it one day at a time!
I want to go through more courses,
Particularly related to drawing backgrounds, since that feels like one of my biggest weaknesses.
Animals too, want to draw more of them.
This tip I got from my mother but another childhood favorite (besides jumping rope) is the hula hoop. This can also whittle your waistline.
Hi jumping rope is so much fun. I feel like I’m trying to reach the sky. Thank you for encouraging this costless exercise ��
