Goals for 2017.

With 2016 coming to a close, and most of use hopefully achieving are goals stated in the previous thread. We might as well go again. 1) Get an internship in software development.

Anyone got a link to the thread from last year?

Curious to see what goals I set out and then failed miserably upon. :P (Fairly confident i posted in this thread last year).

Mine are simple enough this year:

1) Purchase Family Home (this is the important one) (hopefully have it paid outright by the end of the year if I'm incredibly lucky)
2) Lose weight (want to be 14st come December.. I'm in and around 16 and a half to 17st at the moment)
3) Get out more. From 'adventure' things like hiking and mountain trails to social things like nights out. Just get out more in general.
4) Participate in some kinda physically competitive event that requires specific training (like a boxing night or that kinda craic).

Do something good for the community. I currently volunteer with friends of the elderly and visit a lady once a week, I'd love to do something with kids / young adults.

where are you located? I want to start a touch rugby team and then comp, teaching young people how to play the game. Get enough interest by the summer and then run a summer camp with the momentum gained.
I'm in North Dublin

1. Drastically reduce consumption of the news/infotainment/circus show. Finally understand I'm just a largely helpless and clueless spectator -- who's probably better off doing something else.

2. Improve my social mask/behaviour in public and look more engaged/happy/concerned -- whenever the situation demands it.
