19 in 2019

Does anyone else listen to the podcast Happier with Gretchen Rubin? Last year the hosts, following a listener suggestion, advocating making a list of 18 things to do in 2018. I didn’t do it. Because I like to come to everything late, I decided that this year would be my year; I would do 19 in 2019. So I made my list of 19 tasks and goals to work on during the year.

I know that I need some accountability, and I also know that I don’t want to join the Happier facebook group to talk about this, so I though I would try posting here again. It has been a while, and I have said that before, so here’s to maybe another chance.

The List

1. Get a massage
   
2. Read 75 books (including 6 for professional development)
   
3. Go to 5 new museums
   
4. Complete a one month no-spend challenge
   
5. Eat-in for one month
   
6. Update Budget
   
7. Complete a 30 days of yoga challenge
   
8. Keep a food diary for one month
   
9. Run a 5K
   
10. Recommit to vegetarianism
    
11. Meditate for 10 minutes at least 3x per week
    
12. Send one piece of snail mail a month
    
13. Practice music at least 3x per week
    
14. Find a volunteer position
    
15. Complete a continuing education course
    
16. Share one positive thing about each day on Instagram
    
17. Complete a Data Science portfolio of at least 5 projects
