ROW80 – 2023 – Round 4 – Goals (October, 8th 2023)

8 October 2023 /

Hi everyone! 

Note: To keep posts short, I’ve made a Trello board with my goals for the year. Feel free to check it out if you want to know more about the bigger plan.

My word for the week is REFOCUS.

Starting with my studies since I had a couple of essays due today and tomorrow. 

I’m still family-oriented above all, but I can finally manage a little more than taking care of my loved ones, so passing the semester and doing my job properly are what comes next, as usual. 

As a result, I don’t really see much room for writing for now, but I did think of a few things for my fantasy saga (as usual ^^; ).

Since August and September was a big hiatus, I still have a few goals from back then here. I’ll start from them when I resume so they’ll stick around for a little while.

Round 3 Goals 

Mostly this Round will be about catching up and gradually refocusing on goals.

I’ve reduced my work goals to one because that was just too much.

Writing

  • CS2 "Harmonies"

    I'll try and complete 2.2, maybe even start 2.3.

Translating

  • Meditation Project

    I will continue translating the Kindness Curriculum (6 lessons again), and 3 Sleep Stories again.

Publishing

  • Meditations

    I'll share one session every Sunday.

Work

  • Japanese

    I'll make lessons for Genki na Nihongo up to chapter 3.

Home

  • Cleaning

    I'll keep cleaning and decluttering as preparation for future renovation and improvement.

  • Saving

    I'll try and save for future renovation work.

  • Bathroom

    My dad and I will finish the walls.

Personal

  • Studies

    I'll follow 3 courses and try to pass them of course.

  • Well-being

    I'll meditate at least once a day and I'll practice mindfulness and gratitude in general. I'll rest when I need to.

  • Reading

    I'll keep reading at least 1 paperback a month as part of my decluttering effort.
