2022 Personal and Blogging Resolutions

Personal Resolutions Are:

1. Acquire Less “Stuff”

I really want to go hard core on this goal this year, in particularly with respect to clothing (since I failed so bad last year).  I am trying to focus on only buying more expensive/durable clothing from sustainable sources.  I plan on keeping my monthly spending budget for “me” items the same as last year.

• Can acquire up to one item of clothing a week (4 per month).
• Can acquire up to one nail polish a week (4 per month)
• Work on upscaling clothing items that I don’t wear for specific reasons rather than getting rid of them.

2. Stay Healthy

This will be continuation from last year.  Again, I am going with a more generic goals here.  With specifics below.

• Do at least an hour of exercise (where my heartrate is over 120bpm) a day.
• Focus more on cardio; at least 3 intense cardio workouts per week (running or biking)
• Eat healthy food when I am hungry.  Would like to try a couple months eating a plant based diet to see how it goes.

3. Prep for Patent Bar Exam

As part of my new job I would like to be registered as a patent agent within the next two years.  I would like to make sure I have done most of the studying and prepping for the exam this year.

Blogging Resolutions Are:

1. Read less books this year.

I would again like to read even less books this year.  I really want to focus on my health, volunteering, family, and growing out my YouTube content.

2. Look at branching out into other topics for blogging/videos (stretch goal).

I have been doing a ton of VR gaming and am very good at it.  I would love to start doing some videos/blog entries on these types of topics that might be of more interest to a wider audience.
