    New Year's Resolution: Be Selfish

    Like the title says, my New Year's Resolution is to be entirely selfish for a year. I will care about no one but myself. Anyone I've ever seen be successful has shown no interest to anyone but themselves, and they have experienced good things in their lives, or at least it seems.

    Here are the areas it will improve my life:

    1) Women. Most women only like men who are entirely full of themselves and care little for no one else. This will work wonders in my romantic life.

    2) Work. Business people like guys who want only to advance themselves in the workplace. If I go into a job saying I want to help the company or try my hardest, they could care less. If I go into a job saying I want to own the f***ing company, they will love me.

    3) Life. I will only do what I want to do. If I want to go on a walk, I'll go on a damn walk. If I want to say something to someone, I'll say it regardless of whose feelings it hurts.


    I feel as if this will be a lonely journey but is necessary. I also think this is something I can avoid if I just handle my life differently. Can anyone talk me out of this before I declare this my New Year's Resolution and make this my life for a year?

        This part is so true dude. When I talk to some of my friends that are girls, they deny it but then I see them go right back into the kind of relationships that they claim they would "be out the door" - if any man tried to treat them like that.

        I'm definitely gonna treat women differently, not only in the coming year, but for the foreseeable future. Women are undeniably attracted to pricks. Sad but true.

            Mine is to quit cursing.

            Over the past few years my profanity is skyrocketing and my vocabulary IQ is plummeting, mostly due to who I have to deal with at work most days rubbing off on me.

                  You have to be good to yourself, but if you live a life that is completely self-centered you will be miserable.

                              All joking aside.

                              I think you shoudl work on finding out who YOU are.

                              The selfish thing actually semi works for me because I'm an only child, basically raised myself and have been self suffecient since i was about 14 years old.

                              Its second nature.

                              That being said Im nto a complete a-hole. I have respect for people, as long as they respect themselves, and always try to help people reach thier full potential.

                              There are defintely drawbacks, but again, it isnt something i conciously TRY to do... its just who I am.

                              Brank, just do you homie.
