The year is coming to an end and although I would have loved to have written the last few months, I hardly had any time to write blog posts in addition to family matters, work and the everyday stress of just getting some peace and quiet in the evening.
So what did I have in mind Annual plan 2024 and what have I achieved?
- Read a sci-fi book (I'm wavering here between George Orwell's "1984" or Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World") - achieved
- I read through the book 1984 by George Orwell and at the end I was really worried whether I would even finish it this year.
- Read 2 business/coaching books - not achieved
- Unfortunately, I didn't have the time, but I already have a book that I'm going to look at.
- Meet friends twice a year (unfortunately my circle of friends is widely scattered) not achieved
- I've only met a friend once this year, it just didn't work out in terms of time.
- Go hiking at least once a year (I live in the Harz Mountains, and yet I haven't managed to go on a trip in the last few years, I want to change that). achieved
- Wandering through the city and discovering new places, not in the forest, but I'll let that slide.
- Learn at least 1 online course - achieved
- Participated in a course on AI tools and solutions.
- 1 Build, offer and monetize micro Software as a Service service - not achieved
- Unfortunately, despite my work on it, I didn't manage to do this, again simply due to time constraints and family obstacles.
- Build 2 more websites - achieved
- I have created 2 new websites, one about crime and the other about experimenting with content.
- Building a greenhouse and practicing hydroponics - not achieved
- this is something that really bothers me, because I've had the greenhouse kit in the garage for a year now, but not enough time in a row to build the greenhouse.
- Work on my charisma and persuasiveness, learn better body language - not achieved
- I hadn't given it the attention it needed this year, maybe next year
- Do an internship in an online company (The plan is that I learn new things and do an internship in an online company) achieved
- I have managed
- 6 Winning customers - achieved
- I even won 8 customers 😉
- Continue to save your nest egg account - achieved
- I have achieved my goal
- Reach target weight of 70 kg (didn't work out very well last year due to stress) not achieved
- Unfortunately, stress and problems were again the reason why I simply didn't manage it, so it remains the goal for next year.
I had set myself 13 goals this year, of which I achieved 7.
So if I want to sugarcoat it, that's actually not a bad result for the fact that, despite the stress and problems, I somehow managed it this year. But unfortunately, in the end it's the result that counts and I would have liked to have achieved more.
For the coming year, I'm once again making plans for what I want to achieve:
- Reading a sci-fi book (in 2024 it was George Orwell's 1984), in 2025 it will be Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World"
- Read 2 business/coaching books
- Meet friends twice a year (unfortunately my circle of friends is widely scattered)
- Learn at least 1 online course
- Offer your own course
- 1 Build, offer and monetize micro Software as a Service service
- Setting up a greenhouse and practicing hydroponics
- Work on my charisma and persuasiveness, learn body language better
- Set up your own YouTube channel
- Reach target weight 70kg
So for the coming year I have set myself 10 goals, some easier to achieve, others more difficult and lengthy, requiring more motivation and time, but without goals you can't move forward.
I therefore wish everyone a good start to the new year 2025 and hope that everyone will achieve their goals!
