I’m not a big believer in New Year’s resolutions - in my experience whenever I’ve set myself goals for the year ahead life has often found a way to derail them.

Instead of discreet goals (e.g. run a marathon) this year I am aiming for habits. If I can maintain these habits they may eventuate in meeting one of my /someday goals, but then again they may not - and that’s okay. Inspired by Carl Barenbrug, here is my list of what is ‘in’ and ‘out’ for me in 2025:

In

• Mindfulness
• Blogging
• Screencasting
• Running
• Learning
• Wood-fired pizza¹
• Swimming
• Family time
• Self-care
• Strength training
• Calm

Out

• Mainstream news
• Comparison
• FOMO
• Clutter
• Rushing
• Over-committing
