43 Things is an online goals-tracking site, where users can track their goals as well as discuss their headway with others who share the same ambitions. (The company responsible, Robot Co-op, is funded by Amazon, a bit of information that probably shouldn’t concern you.)

By tagging goals with “2007 resolution,” 43 Things users can mark them as a goal specific to the upcoming year; over a thousand goals have been tagged as such today. While it doesn’t offer a perfect subsection of the national goal zeitgeist, it does give us some idea what our fellow blog-reading, web-tool using compatriots are out there planning to do in 2007.

43 Things users’ top goals for 2007 (available on their front page or after the jump) are a bland catalog of our robotic desires for self-improvement, despite the laudable “Read 50 books in 2007″ taking the top spot, above “exercise regularly” and “lose weight.” A few head-scratchers are in the Top 15, such as “stop biting my nails”—who knew it was such an epidemic?—and “Read the entire Bible.” (My advice: Ignore the lists; skip to the good parts.)

Mostly, though, the list confirms our worst suspicions: Everyone basically just wants to be thinner, healthier, and slightly more interesting than last year. Fine and good, but let’s move number 14, “Practice Yoga,” to the top spot, then expand (and… release). This year’s everyone’s top goal should be “Remain very still.”
