Ugh. It's that time of year again for resolutions.

In the last few months, I've been reading a bunch of the Dan Harris substack and one of the things he talks about is making goals/resolutions more specific and measurable. So for example, don't say "I want to get fit this year." Make it more specific, like "I want to make sure I get to the gym three times a week" or "I want to lose 15 pounds." Some other posts on this topic suggest carving the year into smaller chunks to make the goals more attainable.

So with all that said, here are the two goals I'm going to start with for Q1, 2025:

  • 3 gym visits a week minimum all year (with forgivess for illnesses/vacations)
  • Drop 5 pounds (sure, I want to dump a whole bunch more than that, but this is a start)

I've got a gym membership purchased and have already started training. And yes, if I lose any weight in 2024 I'm definitely cheating and counting it for 2025 goals. And you can't stop me. Plus, nobody reads this but me and my mom anyway.
