As the new year approaches in a few days. I thought, I would drot down some goals for the upcoming year so here goes.

1) Make 1 Million Pounds in revenue.

Simply put this will probably not happen this year or the next five years but I do want to feel a million pounds since this year's been a total trainwreck, especially the latter half which became a joke. Got let go from my Job, Family passing away, a best friend passing away (спать хорошо мой друг) So brighter pastuers right?

2) Lose weight.

I love fitness, I REALLY LOVE FITNESS, problem is I accidently slacked off with everythings that's going on and packed on the pounds on the closing end of the year I was doing so well. I was top half of 14 st so about 14st 6lbs (202lb/91.82KG) and ballooned up 2st to 16st 2lb(258lb/117.3KG) which isn't bad in retrospect. as I could have done alot more damage. The plan will be to lose weight via walking, lifting and badminton. Which I have been doing.

3) Create somesort of B2C webservice

Soo I've got this idea for a webservice that I plan to kick off near the start of the year. It's a fun little toy and the domain is available. I'll show it off near the time. (mid January-ish) :)

3) Continue learning Russian At an 'I can watch childrens TV' level

I'm gunna continue learning and grinding Russian I'm slowly getting to a level where I can kinda get the gist of childrens TV especially Russian Seseme street. Slight tangent but I saw a interesting article in the BBC recently where Ukrainians are unfortuantly forced to learn Russian in the UK due to the fact the Ukrainian GCSE got dropped in the 90's while the Russian GCSE still exists. I just want to be on record and say I full support these Ukrainians in their battle against OFSTED. We should be teaching more languages then English and when I was at school French (Mine year did it) and Spanish and aswell as giving the children a choice in second language.

4) Network More

I need to NETWORK, NETWORK, NETWORK, NETWORK....you get the idea. I don't really have a large network and I think that's holding me back professionally. I also find it super easy to network with speedrunners then actually getting out in the world and meeting people which is insanely weird. I've got good social skills, issue is I don't really go to events. so.....

5) Do Something Insane

Well I have a big birthday milestone coming up in 2025 and I need to do something crazy, I need to improve, I need to change for the better. As a straight edge sober person who excercises there isn't any major changes I can do that's next level. I'm going to have a brainstorm and keep number 5 open because there has to be something. Tbh next level crazy would be having a pint of coke (drink) with the priminister or something.

So thanks for reading
