2025 Goals...
2024 was a pretty decent year goal-wise. Unfortunately, taking a monthly look at my progress fell by the wayside in the second half of the year, and that's something I'd like to be better at this time around so I can truly see how I'm doing. For 2025 I carried over most of my day-to-day goals, but with some modifications. There are no more daily goals - it was far too easy to tell myself that 4 days out of 7 was good enough, when 7 is what I really wanted to achieve. I've also added more goals that are for "me to take care of me" - to add more and different kinds of fun into my life. I'm looking forward to a good year.
2025 Planner: Have my planner completely filled in by the end of the month.
Weight under 200 pounds: This is my only specific weight goal for the year. I had hoped to get below 200 pounds by the end of 2024, but some personal issues in December got me off track and I came up 2.5 pounds short. I want those pounds gone!
Sleep: Be in bed before midnight on work nights. Minimum of 5 hours every night.
Alcohol: Maximum of 1 drink when dining out. Maximum of 2 total drinks per day. (occasional "nights out" are exceptions)
Hydration: Minimum of 3 glasses of water per day.
Home Leisure: Minimum of 2 days per week. (activities include puzzles, board games, reading, etc.)
Dishes: Load/run the machine a minimum of 3 times per week. Hand washing a minimum of once per week.
Exercise: Minimum of 4 days per week.
Computer Tasks: Every week, day(s) TBD. (tasks include banking, weekly DW post, etc.)
Haircut: Minimum of once per month.
Me Day: One day a month to recharge. Only requirement is zero chores. (stole this idea from a friend)
Goal Review: Review the previous month and post the results in DW no later than the 3rd of the month.
Run Events: Participate in a minimum of 1 race event each quarter. I've already registered for:
Q1 - 5 km
Q2 - 5 km
Q3 - 1/2 marathon
Q4 - 1/2 marathon
Quarterly Activity: Experience something new. (in 2024, the sushi rolling class and the running club were great new experiences)
Fun Day: Basically, day trips. There are far too many fun and interesting things within a few hours of home - I'd like experience more of them.
And that's it. Wish me luck! =]
