2024 New Year's Goals
Happy 2024 everyone! I hope this is a great year for all of us. Here are my goals for the year; it is once again a very long list. Many of these overlap from last year, though I did try to add some new ones, and to modify the ones that weren't working very well. I've found having a list of things to accomplish/strive for throughout the year works better than setting a traditional resolution, so that's what I'm gonna stick with.
--Earn 30XP a day on Duolingo. Try to complete one "topic" a day.
--Practice French and Polish twice a week, practice Hawaiian, Esperanto, and German once a week. I might change this later, but for now I will keep this format in hopes of making progress on all five languages.
--Complete 15 units in French (Unit 15 of Section 8), complete 10 units in Polish (Unit 13 of Section 3), complete 5 Legendary units in Hawaiian (Unit 6 of Section 2), complete 5 Legendary units in Esperanto (Unit 11 of Section 2), complete 5 units in German (Unit 6 of Section 3).
--Purchase a gym membership. Go to the gym at least twice a week. I expect this one will need an adjustment period, since this is new this year and the time commitment is going to be tricky to figure out.
--Do yoga every day except Mondays. However, if I don't do yoga on a day I go to the gym, I'll be okay with that.
--Make a weekly post on Thursdays and make the Comfort Corner posts on the first third and fifth Sundays of the month.
--Cook once a week. I may need to try making things to freeze, so that I can have more variety in my meals and can stick to this goal better.
--Do the dishes Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays as well as after any cooking or baking I do.
--Water daily and weed weekly during the growing season (May to September probably).
--$X/week in savings.
--Donate to charity once a month. Create the list by January 15. (List created Jan 2)
--Read one book a month. Make a list by January 15. (List creatd Jan 2)
--Play flute once a month.
--Participate in at least one bingo fest. Tentatively, the Valentine's fest looks most promising, though a few others look intriguing as well.
--Work on old bingo cards.
--Finish socks.
--Do one knit or crochet project. I have several ideas for this, so hopefully I can achieve this early.
--Get one colour of fabric cut for my quilt.
--Join one crafting class. A local art store offers options, so hopefully I will find something that catches my eye.
--Complete one puzzle.
--Take one "me" day a month. Hopefully I can plan these better this year and actually get more benefit out of them.
--Go rock climbing or do a ropes course. This might be one I can do with my sister, which will make it extra fun.
--Do one outside activity a month.
--Answer DW comments as I get them. Answer 5 per weekend to clear any backlog that may accumulate.
--Fill in wall calendar with all recurring goals by January 15. (Done Jan 2)
--Improve inter-personal and intra-personal skills. I don't have a plan for this yet, but this feels like a weak area to me and I'd like to shore it up.
--Determine whether finding a new therapist or other mental health professional would be benficial. Make a plan with concrete steps to improve at least one slice of the Circle of Life.
--Mark daily tasks as they are completed. Write a monthly goal review at the end of each month.
I have a good feeling about this year. Hopefully the momentum carries forward!
