1000 Days
Wednesday, November 26, 2014
In 1000 days I will turn 30. That seems like a ridiculously long time but also a pretty damn soon. I lament here constantly about how fast life is moving so I figured I better get on it and think seriously about what I want to achieve in my life. It was a long list. Some of the things were small, easy, others were big, too big to achieve in the next few years. It was a great exercise though and I did manage to pull together what I think it a somewhat reasonable (but still big) list of things I want to do before I hit my next major milestone though.










And a big super serious note to end on. This is kind of a necessity rather than a desire though. A lot of my goals are going to involve some financing so it only makes sense to start saving for some specific things and other just general life bits and bobs. I'm not expecting to put a lot aside but every little counts, right?
I'll be trying to do seasonal updates, maybe ever 100 days or so, both to keep you updated on my progress and give me regular check ups as I go. I'll still be doing resolutions at New Year but I'm going to keep them small for the next couple of years and try and focus on this list in the long run. I'm really excited and a little bit anxious about all of them so it'll be fun to see where I am on my next check in day on March 6th next year.
Are you working towards any big goals at the moment? Or are you still wrapping up your resolutions for 2014? I'd love to get some inspiration from you guys!

Oh, and if you wanted to know, I will turn 30 on the 23rd of August 2017.

I am currently trying to work out how get started doing what I need to do. Not knowing how to begin is the hardest part. Once I have worked it out it will just be lack of confidence to get over and I'll be on my way.
ReplyDeleteI tend to believe that if you fantasise about being able to do something, go somewhere or achieve something then it must be impossible but in the last few weeks I have come to realise that this just isn't true. Our goals are all achievable if we really try. There seems to be a general negativity in the UK which stops people from doing things before they get started. Conversely, in Australia there is more of a "can do" attitude and people are very supportive of goals and ideas, provided you actually do them of course. Being interested is not interesting over here, you have actually to do things.
Good luck with your goals and I expect you to have achieved several of them within the next 320 days. I too shall achieve several of mine in that time. I believe in you as you and many others believe in me. You must now believe in yourself and I in myself.

I love your list! I am working on 2015's resolutions already!
ReplyDeleteI sucked at languages at school but started using Duolingo to help me learn French and it's really good at helping me get to grips with the way the language works and not just teaching me random phrases! and I think it's great you're thinking of raising kids with both languages!
