New Years Resolutions 1.1.24

New Years Resolutions are the worst. Usually, they fizzle out within just a few weeks of starting them. In my experience, it’s usually less than that if I even set them at all. I am documenting my resolutions as a way to hopefully keep myself accountable.

Some of my goals are specific, but some are pretty vague. I’ve noticed that when I set sights too high, I end up completely giving up rather than at least trying. I don’t necessarily need to take 10,000 steps a day. But I should walk more! I think I’ve given myself some reasonable expectations. Here’s a look at what I plan to do this year.

1. Post to my portfolio once a week, at minimum. That is 52+ posts.
2. Post to YouTube once a month, at a minimum. That is 12+ videos.
3. Spend less money on dumb stuff. Stop ordering from cheap websites. Only buy things I need. We want to travel and move this year. We need to start saving.
4. Improve my diet. I don’t intend to cut out everything I enjoy. However, I definitely need a bit more balance. More water, less soda. More vegetables, less junk.
5. Exercise more. Since I’ve gotten a desk job, it has been difficult to keep myself physically active.

These may seem like very simple goals however, any progress is still progress. I hope everybody has a wonderful 2024!
