Tomorrow (assuming I push this post out tonight) is my 29th birthday. I usually don't celebrate too big, this year I'm spending two weeks back on the west coast with family.
I wanted to use this post to help solidify some of my goals over the next year (as a form of public commitment). I don't normally post year long goals on my birthday, usually I do that around new years, but I figured why not share it on my birthday. After all, this next year will lead to me turning 30, which kind of feels like a big thing!
I don't have many goals yet, but I wanted to highlight a few that came to mind as we were driving back from Vancouver this afternoon.
1. Get healthier
I've fallen back into ordering a lot of delivery fast junk food as of
late - I'd like to instead get better at making my own food, and working on a
healthier diet.
On top of that - I really need to stretch out my exercise, at the moment it consists only of walking but I need to involve more activities to help burn more calories.
2. Improve my wardrobe
My current wardrobe is pretty plain and consists of essentially 4 things:
- Black Eddie Bauer polos
- Shorts from Target
- Pants from Public Rec
- Jeans
At a bare minimum I'd like to stretch my shirt collection a bit, and add in more variety.
3. Optimize finances
I don't necessarily want to start planning for retirement, but I do also want to better control my finances. To start, I want to get a lot better at understanding where/how/why I spend my money.
