Whoops! Andy's response made me realize I never got on this thread... besides, I can do this while I eat my lunch :).

1. Find a good woman to share your life with

Just had our 4-year anniversary.

2. Have some kids and love them to pieces

He's two. Loves his computer :). Kids are SO cool.

3. Take a job working for people you can respect

Done.

4. Do some volunteer work and make life better for those less fortunate than you.

I keep meaning to do this. I'd really like to volunteer with an animal rescue group, but I'm just SO busy... (what a lame excuse).

5. Make some investments in good companies and watch them grow

Do MSFT and CSCO count?

6. Don't take yourself too seriously

Does anyone take me seriously?

7. Don't judge others by your own standards

Oooh, that's a good one. Gotta work on that.

8. Perform some acts of random kindness

These are fun, aren't they?

9. Get a pet who will love you unconditionally

I've got three - two lab mixes and a cat. I'm making the rounds of the shelters looking for a calico kitten - I had to put my 14-year-old tabby to sleep a few months ago, and now the cat/dog ratio in our home is unbalanced...

Wow. Exercises like this really make you appreciate just how well off you are. It's much too easy to lose sight of that.
