​New years resolutions 2025

30. Dec, 2024

I skipped a year. Last time I made a resolution here was for 2023. The fact that I am doing one again now, and generally feel excited about writing in my  little personal blog (and restarting the Excite-o-meter!) is a sign of whatever I am doing to reduce my stress, is working. A big theme for me in 2024.


Since I didn't make a list for 2024, let's make it retroactively:
  • Learn conversational Dutch
  • Fix my chronical stress ->
  • Fix my health
  • More adventure

Ah, maybe a bit boring. Since these are things I actually achieved or progressing on. My health has finally taking center stage of my life. I should have done that 5 years earlier. I learned a ton about my health this year. Also spent a lot of money on it :D

Goals for 2025:

  • Fully get my stress and health in order
  • Fluent in Dutch (but not perfect)
  • More adventures with Clé
  • Learn how to enjoy parenthood
  • Find more calm in my every day life
  • Become a decent engineer
  • Grow Morningscore +33%
