two thousand and nine
Another wonderful year is upon us. 2008 was a pretty notable one and I figure that 2009 will continue the trend. I’m not quite sure what to expect come the 31st of December, 2009, but I’ve a few items that I’m striving to shoe-horn into my busy calendar.
- Gym 12 days a month: I managed the 10 days per month average in 2008 as part of my agenda, so I think I can raise this average somewhat. I’m already behind the 8-ball after my spill off the motorbike, so I’ll need to really start pressing to make the mark for January. Averaging 3 days a week shouldn’t be too much of a stress. 144 days is the aim, 144 to go.
- Start saving money: Debt is almost completely settled (back from a tough position in August last year) and savings goals are still to be set, mindful of the fact that I have a motorbike to pay off and a holiday coming up in March to Argentina. However, there shouldn’t really be anything stopping me from trimming about 45% of earnings into savings which is quite considerable but something that should be fairly manageable from my end.
- Read one book a month: Fitness and lifestyle magazines notwithstanding, I’ve been reading pretty much all of sweet bugger all lately. I should be taking advantage of the considerable library at my disposal thanks to my sister.
So there you are; my goals to be healthy, wealthy and wise. Besides the health goal, the others should be fairly easy to hit but we’ll review how this is going at the start of every month.
Oh yeah, and I should start blogging more too.
