2020 Resolutions

2020 Resolutions

A little late to the game but I do have a few resolutions for 2020.

  1. FINALLY FINISH LOSING THE WEIGHT!
  2. Actually be consistent in utilizing Duolingo to learn some awesome languages.
  3. Listen to the Bible through chronologically.
  4. Pay off as much debt as possible

1 is a no brainer. I have been trying to lose weight in some capacity since late 2013. I have seriously been trying to lose weight since August 2015 but I have severely slacked in the adherence for a while. It’s time to kick things into gear. I am giving myself monthly SMART goals to get me there. January started with just getting back to working out 6 days a week and hitting my calories and water each day.

2 every year for the last several I have wanted to learn Spanish and have severely slacked off. We are 2 weeks into the new year and so far I have used it every day.

3 I did this last year, listening to the Daily Audio Bible while on my morning walks, I have changed to the chronological version for this year.

4 We start every year off strong on this one and then we slack off toward the end of the year. 2019 was the year of me finally learning how to budget. I started using YNAB for ALL THINGS BUDGET and I started a debt free blog (www.letsgetdebtfree.com). I told Chelsea towards the end of December that I need 2020 to be a no spend year and while I was not entirely serious, I did implement some changes for this year (getting a month ahead on bills being one of them). I truly intend on us being debt free in 3 years or less and adhering to my debt free plan and limiting spending needs to be top priority.

After a hard year last year with my family I fully intend on this being the year of me. I’m going to be a little more selfish for my mental well being, writing here is one.

While I am not going to make this one of my resolutions I do fully intend to continue blogging into this year. I spent early this week rebuilding a couple of abandoned websites so I could blog on each respective website and I imported old posts I happened to have saved.

It’s the year of getting better and making progress!
