Just looking through everyone else's responses has helped me identity a couple things that I might not even have been aware of myself. Good idea for a thread. I guess for January, 3 ongoing mistakes I made which I'll have to change are:

1) Starting up too many tournies when I'm really not geared to go all out. When I get a couple bad beats and lose the ones I'm currently playing, I'll too often fire up some more only to find out after a few minutes that I really don't want to be playing in a bad mood for a few hours and I just donk my chips away.

2: At some point, I feel like there's just some pot that I have to win or some hand that I have to pull a fancy move with--always my last hand. Patience! Play solid poker!

3: Spending too much on satellites. I like to play the occassional satellite into a Sunday tournament or two but this month I got carried away, forcing myself to get a seat every week even if it ended up costing more than the seat is worth. From now on, I'll have to just play one once in awhile and not force anything.
