01 - Continue blogging — I don't have to say it but I like to just to remind myself just in case I go mad and quit blogging.
02 - Continue to refuse to join any social media or anywhere else to embarrass myself except in a blog.
03 - Restart commenting more on blogs — I may have slacked in this since last year and I have no excuses for it. I just don't seem to have things to say like I used to. Sometimes I re-read a post a dozen times trying to find something to say but just end up with something brief or not leave any comment. It probably doesn't matter what I say but I like to say something worth reading however brief they may be.
04 - Start practicing procrastinating in my sleep.
05 - Restart on finishing my artworks that may have been piling up for years — I have no idea how many unfinished artworks I have but I'm sure it would take a couple of years to finish them all but no one would really finish everything in their lifetime so trying for a couple is at least something.
06 - Continue to not learn any new people skills — I don't know why but my people skills aren't getting better. I always try to be polite but sometimes people are not polite and I can't help but treat them the same way they treat me. I can only tolerate so much crap.
07 - Restart finishing/editing my novels and short stories — I keep working at them and keep not finishing them and even after many tries, I still fail to finish. But I persist anyway. Because I have a need to finish. There is a growing number like my artworks and I may never get to them but I hope I can finish a couple.
08 - Start watching less youtube — This is probably not something I can do too well but I can try. I think less screen time would do me good. At least I'm not watching youtube on a phone.
09 - Start exercising every day or at least briefly consider to consider doing it.
10 - Continue trying to go wireless even though there is no such thing when you have to charge everything with wires.
11 - Continue doing jigsaw puzzles — I haven't done one in a long while but I like doing them and they help me to spend less time staring at screens.
12 - Restart reading more fantasies, science fiction, middle grade books and books that are not murder mysteries — These few years, I had been reading nothing but murder mysteries so now I think it's time to add back the books I used to read. I don't want to say reading too much murders is bad for me but having more varieties in my reading is better.
What do you plan to continue, start or restart doing this year?
These are all worthy goals! I'm going to try to do more art on my own initiative this year (instead of just art from class assignments).
ReplyDeleteAll good things to consider, and I think most of us can relate to many of them. Don't worry about your comments on others blogs. I think most bloggers are happy to hear from others even if it's just a "Hi". Even small comments make a connection that grows.
ReplyDeleteGood thoughtful list
