#2Wrote a book (non-technical). A very interesting experience indeed. I used LeanPub for the content and then CreateSpace for the deadtree version.

#3I got my first job in the tech industry after leaving hospitality. It was the most difficult and most rewarding thing I've done in my career.

#4Got to early revenue and some pretty encouraging sustained compounding growth in my side-project-turned-startup: https://www.zerotier.com/
This is a three year old project. 2014 saw the first auto-updating binary releases on three platforms, the first commercial users, and the first revenue. It also made HN's front page twice: once for the site itself, and once for a blog entry that I wrote on the mechanics of NAT traversal.
Currently working on a lot of prep for a possible seed round in early-mid 2015. If all keeps going well it might happen.

#5Changed jobs 3 times, including a return to the 1st job of the year. Added 30% to my annual salary in the process.
Wrote a massive iOS Application (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/zonas-find-explore-connect/i...)
Attended WWDC for the first time, and in doing so, finally met a friend of mine whom I've only ever known as a screen name.
Completed my first major freelance project. (First 5-digit invoice.)

#6A lot for the DayJob, unfortunately little more than nothing for side projects.

#7Recovered from a traumatic brain injury from a motorcycle accident.
Moved from Melbourne to Seattle.
Got a job at Amazon.
Most importantly though, understood myself, the people around me and the world much better. :)

#9Quit my job to start a company. Failed, but learned a lot of important lessons. Got back to a well paid job. Probably most important - got back to a very good shape.

#10I finally finished an SaaS product that I plan to start selling in early January, once I get back from a holiday break.
Pretty excited to have a side-project that I think can generate revenue.
