I have a couple of suggestions for your New Years resolutions.

If you can’t code then check out CodeYear.com and sign up to receive an interactive coding lesson by email each week. It will change your life.

If you can code then check out the article I posted yesterday and think about how to ‘level up’. You could resolve to send your first pull request on Github, speak at a local event, write for The Kernel or open source your first project. You should also follow @DailyDevTips.

Regardless of whether or not you can code, if you’re thinking of doing a startup then apply for an accelerator program such as Y Combinator, TechStars or 500 Startups in the USA or SpringboardSeedcamp or Ignite100 in the UK. The application process will be a valuable exercise and if you land a place then you win a huge head start.

Don’t forget to make your resolutions specific and achievable. And if I can help or encourage you with any of the suggestions above then feel free to give me a shout.
