Not a fan of treating any particular day as any more special than any other day, but rather than lamenting over goals it's always nice to reflect upon and celebrate some of the accomplishments from the year. Habits and routines are the way to go, but sometimes it's tricky to show the payoff. IFAIK the only "goals" I actually commit to comes down to when I have to pay tuition or buy some kind of infrastructure that needs maintenance :P Other than that I've read it's pretty jarring to your self-image to fail to be the person you imagined yourself, but it's fairly flattering to retroactively build the image of yourself based on your recent behavior (even if that seems like cheating).
