This could be resolutions, places you plan to travel, projects for your house, or whatever.
My current list:
1) find a new job asap
2) start running again, need to lose 10 poinds
3) really need to drink a little less, also related to the weight loss comment.
4) now that our daughter is almost 2, start doing more activities outside of the house vs spending all weekend at home.

- Get a new job, and double my current salary.
- Get my Blood Pressure down another 15 (top number). It was way high — 154/82 (due to eating like shit when I travel for work, despite eating well at home), and in a year I’ve dropped it to 130/72
Get that top number a little lower man, good job though.

Stop being a Cleveland sports fan. 😁
Seriously, I’m battling the same thing, having numbers like yours. I’m getting it back down thanks to working out at a Sports and Wellness center that I initially went to for rehab on my new knee.
Get a raise from current employer.
Build the two businesses I started in 2019.
Continue to pay off debt (student loan and now a little on credit card).
Try to do some home renovations, would like to move in the next 1-2 years.
Continue to work on my health -- eat better, exercise more.
I might actually put effort into learning Spanish.

Mi vaca es su casa!
Had a job interview today. Would be a major life change if I got it. So I’d spend 2020 doing that.
Move back to the motherland, probably Columbus.
I've been in the DC/ Maryland area now since 2007. But, I've grown tired of the area and desire to be closer to family.

You lasted longer than me.

It's only because we moved north, to Frederick, MD. the last few years.

It took me by surprise a few years ago. I’m very laid back and don’t carry much stress at all. I’ve actually helped my wife stop getting so worked up about stuff. I’m 6’1, 205 and workout regularly. Been an athlete my whole life (did get up to around 230 in college and kept it on until about 4 years ago). But never had health issues. Then I took this job in NC and I travelled 48/52 weekends my first year and went for my annual physical and had that number. Didn’t think much of it because I had never had BP issues. Well, 3 checkups later and it actually rose a bit I started to get worried. Dr. said probably diet related, so I looked into the foods to help reduce it and it’s worked. Coupled with ordering healthier items on the menu when I travel (this was the main issue, as we eat pretty healthy at home) and it’s dropped significantly in just over 12 months. Want to get back to what I was accustomed to, but getting older stress may prevent that lol: kid; shit paying job; sports; family...
Going to Costa Rica at end of March, and pumped as all hell. Everything else? I'm fine with life the way that it is.

I should have included this. I'm 28 days into Spanish using Duolingo. It's been a lot of fun. Much better than Spanish class in high school that I had for 4 years.
I used Duolingo for months. Didn't really help. Just frustrated the hell out of me.
Pimsleur is the only thing that really helped regarding being conversational.
When I say effort, I mean a book, class, instructor. I just need to know the basics in a classroom environment and then go from there.
pay off more debt
expand the business
continue cutting the bullshit out

Just had a quote for our bathroom, which isn't even a whole bathroom renovation, just a shower installed.
$8,888 after 20% off. Ouch. This one won't be happening anytime soon.

That’s an insane price to install a shower
Holy shit what kind of lavish shower costs 8k?
I just helped my dad finish a shower install over the Xmas holiday. If you're even somewhat handy, you could probably handle most if not all yourself....especially if you go with a kit.
