To learn how to stop saying "yes" to everything.

This is actually a pretty good one. Possibly life changing and yet not intimidating.

I don’t do resolutions, I’m just trying to do what I did before, but better. Like you have to do every single day.

2022 was a year of big professional achievements and some aspects of my personal wellness took a back seat.

My primary goal in 2023 is re-focusing on fitness, wellness and reclaiming some personal time that was ceded to work.

I’m also looking to try some lifestyle experiments like not shopping on Amazon for a month in an effort to reform our household shopping habits.

Find a way to train AI to do my job, based around feeding it relevant docs in a certain format. It'll probably be quite iterative, e.g. giving it reqs and bits of relevant code to output a draft spike doc, feeding the API docs to complete the spike doc, getting AI to ask questions of scenarios I didn't think about. And then generating tests and drafting architecture from that spike doc. Goal at the end of the year wo…

I'm actually running out of personal goals, so I suppose this year, it would be to teach my 4th grader to cook her own breakfast before school (a whole other pipeline).

Oh and lose 20 kg.

This year I'm focused on trying to grow my Patreon. It's for a niche NES game development hobby that I don't expect to pick up any real steam, but I'd like to see if I can get enough side income from it to de-stress my day job a bit, let me consider a soft-retirement down the line where my primary income isn't the only thing keeping the ship afloat. I think that'd be a nice long term goal, but it's not remotely feasible if I don't put in the work. This year I'm going to do just that.
