2026 Goals and Intentions
Jan. 4th, 2026 07:00 pmWho knows what will happen this year. I always hope for a better year. I still like making goals and being able to check in about them regularly to keep track of what I'm doing, so here we go.
Create. I want to keep up my just do a little bit practice of making art. It can sometimes feel a little bit like just ticking a box, but it keeps me in just enough practice that when I do feel like doing more, I can do that easily.
Strengthen connections. I love both doing and keeping track of this, so it continues to stay on the list. This year's specific addition is to remember to stay in regular contact with friends I don't already keep up with regularly.
Connect to God/engage in Jewish practice. I'm keeping this because it's still important to me. At a minimum, I will keep up my weekly Shabbat practice and continue learning to read Hebrew.
Improve/maintain my mental/physical health. The primary priority here is to get back into a regular sleep schedule, and then get back to walking regularly once my ankle has fully healed. I am also going to take time off on a more regular schedule.
Take care of some practical things. This list includes things like buying a new couch, getting my hair cut regularly by someone else, and getting my knives sharpened. I will be making a list to check off as the year progresses.
