New Year Resolution?

[elusivek]

I'm not really sure if I should make a set of resolutions or not. Resolutions are made to be broken, aren't they?

But I suppose I need something to look forward to and plan stuff around...

OK... So here is something for me to work on...

2016 Resolutions

Personal targets

• Less splurges. Keep a budget. Monthly $5000 for personal spending inclusive of personal utilities. MOP$2000 for Dogs' medication. So that makes it MOP$7000 budget total.


• Read more. 2015 Goodreads target of 20 books failed. Scale back, read 12 books in 2016 (one book a month).


• Drink more water. Target 3 litres of water for the duration at work.

Fitness targets

• Make full use of my gym plan. I'm entitled to go twice a week. Currently going only once a week. Target: go to the gym twice a week.


• Schedule weekly Saturday badminton games with friends. Exercise more.


• Reserve 2 nights a week for walking/running training.


• Reach daily walking steps target 10,000 steps. Once stable, aim higher for 12,000. Walk more.


• No more snacking after 10pm. If hungry, eat fruit.

Study targets

• Actually spend time revising for Portuguese classes. Write more Portuguese entries. Practice Portuguese.


• Get back into revising Japanese. Spend at least 3 hours a week on Japanese, be it reading, writing, blogging, etc.

So these 10 points should be easy enough to follow... Now for me to actually remember them... There should be an app for that, correct??

These sound like very reasonable goals. One of mine is to walk more and get back to my French studies. I find that I am missing the stimulation f working with another language.

One hint that works for me - print them out and hang them on the refrigerator or the front door or someplace where you see them all the time. That's what I have to do.

Good luck!

Can't do the fridge thing, my mom hates having stuff on the fridge... I'll figure out what to do

Is there some place else where you will see if every day?
