A bit of a check up on last years goals.
Consume Less - quality over quantity
It is easy to buy things all the time with online shopping only a click away. My aim is to think about each purchase and make sure that the purchase will fit into my life and will last. Which sort of moves into the next one…
I think I did this quite well, as you all know and I apologise for… I like to research everything to make sure that my money is spent well. Sometimes this ends up not being a purchase which points out that I didn’t really need it in the first place. I will continue this over this year and probably for a long time.
Dress better + dress smarter
In the past I had up to 50 shirts in my wardrobe. My aim is fill the wardrobe with quality clothes that will last and support those brands that offer lifetime warranties/repairs.
Kind of - my wardrobe has slimmed down, I have bought some Patagonia, Icebreaker and Swrve items. However, I don’t think I am dressing any better. My fashion sense is fkn bland.
Finish the renovation
I hope to be in the house by the first half of this year
Tick - moved into the house in May
Start the landscaping
By the end of this year I would love to have fruit trees, bee hive, plans for a chicken coop and to have my yard…
Failed, we have machinery coming in next week to level the yard so I can start the landscaping.
Get a dog
… puppy proofed.
Failed - No dog.
Ride through winter
It is easy to not ride through winter, I would like to keep spinning and make riding part of who I am again.
Failed - I will need to purchase some proper cycling gear for this.
Plan that holiday
Mt Buller with some of the FoA crew, Tasmania, NZ
No holiday planned - Fail.
Buy an adventure bike
Head out on an overnighter, or a multi nighter
Tick - Kona Sutra LTD. Did head on a multi nighter, but it turned into an overnighter.
