I never believed in new year resolutions, but last year, I gave myself three major goals, out of which I think I'll be crossing off all of them!<p>For the next year, I am planning to
1. Grow 100 plants in my house
2. Walk a total of 2000 Kms in the year
3. Create 12 big paintings
4. Journal everyday
5. Cook through a cookbook completely<p>I'm really interested to know what you would mark as personal goals.
I find New Year's resolutions extremely useful, but only if I subsequently break them down into quarterly resolutions so I can evaluate them more often. A whole year is too long a time to check up on your goals.<p>I developed a pretty consistent habit of exercising in 2016, and I also started a project (<a href="https://goo.gl/Qmbbgh" rel="nofollow">https://goo.gl/Qmbbgh</a>) that I think can feasibly generate enough recurring revenue to sustain my lifestyle.<p>In 2017 I'd like to continue exercising but add a little more cardio (it's been mostly weightlifting), get my project to at least $3-4k/mo in revenue, add to that a new habit of reading and learning new things at least one day a week.
Switch into software as a career. I've been learning Node.js for fun for the last 4 years, while I'm a full time chemical engineer with experience in oil & gas, metals & mining, and supply chain.<p>Ideally find something that lets me use my project management and industry experience, rather than just being a junior dev.
I would like to do 80 exercises on project Euller. I will try to do that on my next summer vacation (souther hemisphere). I have other goals but I am still focusing on 2016...
