My 2013 New Year's Resolutions [Others]
Before going into my plans and new aims for the new year, let me review 2012: I went abroad 20 times visiting 26 countries during a total of 72 days. I read 68 books and watched 6 movies during 300 hours. I went golfing 49 times and took 15 private golf lessons during a total of approximately 330 hours. I wrote a book during about 200 hours. I took private English lessons during 30 hours. I ran a total of 935km during around 100 hours. I wrote 200 entries in my personal blog during 50 hours. This leads to a total of 1130 hours of free time spent that is accounted for.

Looking at above statistics, I feel the time spent on running seems so little. Assuming that on a working day I have 3 hours of free time and on a free day I have 11 hours of free time, this amounts to 2300 hours of free time a year. This means I merely used half of this time. The point is to figure out how to use that remaining time! Probably 400 hours of it I use for dinner. How about you?
2013 New Year’s Resolutions
So now for my private resolutions for the year 2013: Let’s seriously train for running (In Singapore it is quite hot). Let’s create a running club at the HQ in Tokyo. Then I would like to learn a lot: Take an MBA, learn about statistics and human resources theory and continue my English learning efforts. I would like to do voice training and must do golf training. I am interested in trying boxing and would like to try ‘online private fitness lessons’. I will go to art museums and would like to do some painting! Also I would like to write a novel one day. Then I would like to learn how to program Android apps. I saw on TV, that even elementary school kids can do it, so I decided to try developing my own calendar application with my most wished for functions. Finally I would like to take up base guitar again and form a band. Some of these activities should help making more sensible use of my unaccounted free time!
So what's your New Year's resolutions?

Mr. Uemura
I am looking forward to reading your blog all the time. Reading articles here, to me as an undergrad student, feels like meeting a variety of great people or books.
And also, I am always amazed at how such a busy leader like you are managing to do all kinds of stuff: reading, sports, studying, etc. (I'm sorry if I sounded rude, but I cannot help taking my hats off.)
Touching your vitality through this blog, I feel much energized and feel more ready to go for my dreams.
So, I just wanted to say thank you, and please, gojiai kudasai.
