Each year, I try to make plans and goals. At the end of each year, I ask myself, “am I improved this year?” It is hard to quantify my achievements, good, and bad things. This year, I am trying check-box approach. I write down my new year resolutions by itemizing them into 5 categories. Then I distribute sub-tasks over 12 months including easy and hard tasks). Let’s see if I am still on track after three weeks.
- Finance/Investment
- Started two small investments (Stash and Acrons) – DONE
- Pay car and home loans on time – DONE for January
- Limit credit card usage – NO (went to a road trip)
- Cooking
- Limit number of eatouts < 10 – GOOD so far 6
- Start writing receipes and blog posts online – DONE
- Gardening
- Start harvesting vegetables – DONE
- Start seedling – DONE
- Exercise
- Run 100 km per month – NO (very distracted by snow)
- go to GYM 3 times a week – NO (only did a few times this month)
- Start new sports – DONE (golf)
- Productivity
- Blog post count > 30 % (10 posts per month) – Close
- Automate routine for weekdays and weekends – NO (need to define routine better)
Result: 7/12 = 58 %
I think I need to improve better and work on more clear definitions for better motivation. I will keep working on this February 🙂
