12 Goals for 2014

Starting today I will set 12 goals. Each goal will occupy the span of one month and must be fulfilled everyday. My objective is to spend more time improving and diversifying myself. I feel that as I get older I spend less time engaging in new activities and becoming more specialized. I want this year to be about self-improvement.

1. January: No Drinking

Conclusion I hit 185 pounds and achieved a level of fitness I hadn't experienced in a long time. Even won two silver medals in a JiuJitsu tournament on my birthday! I am now off soda and have cut my sugar intake down considerably. I have maintained constant studying. Unfortunately, other than fitness and misc studying, I did not continue all 12 goals after July, but still had an awesome year! :)

Update (3/31) At least for the early months I have decided to remain dedicated to physical improvement, something much neglected in my recent years. I have maintained almost daily workout regiments for 3 months and have lost 27lbs! I have recently started boxing/jujutsu training so will keep pursuing more physical goals until I feel content and wish to work on something else.
