I was feeling all depressed and like I was in a rut the other day. One of those sorta “What am I doing with my life?” things… so I decided to come up with a few goals or “resolutions” perhaps. Anyhow I’m going to put them here for all to see for now.
- Get up at 7:00AM every day of the week, right when the alarm goes off.
- Sort of a corollary to number 1, go to bed every night at 11:00PM give or take 1/2 hour.
- Spend 1 hour every night on a coding project of some sort. Web based or programming. I don’t know what yet, so I need to nail that down before I can get going on it. I may also want to reduce the amount of time on this since evenings are already pretty packed.
- Cut alcohol from my diet except for at social occasions. The definition of a social gathering is anything that includes more people than just me, save Casey and/or Isaac.
- Travel Alaska. I need at least one serious trip this summer with Casey before she takes off for geology field camp from late June to early August. Currently what I’ve run past Casey is a trip to Kennicott/McCarthy area. Maybe we could XC ski into Hootlenanna hot springs while winter is still in swing.
There may be one other thing, but it’s not coming immediately to mind. I’ll add it later if it exists.
I’ve had this list for the past couple days and have been successful with the getting up thing, the not drinking thing, and pretty good at the going to bed thing. I haven’t come up with a coding project yet, instead we worked on taxes last night. Maybe I’ll take a graphics course…
I’m also going to set up some serious work goals. I want to grab work by the horns and do something instead of just floating down this meandering stream. Time for some direction!
I feel like it is time for some real vision. Both work and personally.
Anyhow, I’ve got to head off to the ice arena to get some skating in! Cheers.
