PineSong Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 (edited) Anyone else still optimistic enough to make resolutions for the new year? Last year I declared 2021 "The Year of Trying New Things". I feel super successful as I had lots of opportunity to try new restaurants, new dishes at old restaurants, a new vacation place, new travel buddy, even new fish (guppies and otocinclus) and some other big "firsts". I fell short of my goal in books I wanted to read this year, so I am renewing that goal for this year.... and since there are still six hours of 2021 left, I want to set a specific goal there and decide on a concept for 2022 being the "Year of ______________________", but I'm still deciding. Anyone else? Edited January 1, 2022 by PineSong 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Folk Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 I’d love 2022 to be my year of “Less is more.” But I think I’m just trying to say, “Smarter focus.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flumpweesel Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 I generally just try to be a bit better in everything. I think however this year it's time to stop using covid as an excuse to avoid things and start living my life again rather than just ticking over. (Safely though I'm not a fool). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jawjagrrl Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 1) continue learning. 2) I hope to make my vision of what the 2 55s in my basement could be a reality this year. Starting with a journal this week 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishPlanet Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 This is what I am going to call 2022: " The Year of Trying to be Better at Things." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PineSong Posted January 2, 2022 Author Share Posted January 2, 2022 Seems like you all are equally looking forward to changes. Having spent part of the afternoon watching inspirational gardening videos and working on some projects around the house, I've decided my 2022 will be the "Year of Attention to Detail" with a side order of Learning More Tapas Recipes.Hopefully I won't end up gaining 20lbs in the process 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Levi_Aquatics Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 I would like to avoid burnout in the hobby this summer and breed at least 3 new species of fish this year. Hopefully kribs, multis if I can get my hands on them, and something else like killis or ricefish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 I have been doing intermitten fasting for about 1.5 years for about 18-19 hours per day. My goal this year is to get it to about 20-21 hours per day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lindabee53 Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 I'm going to focus on being content with what I have. And to go along with that, I want to actually use the yarn and fabric I have, making things for my family and friends and people in need. I don't know that it should be considered a goal if it's something I already do to some extent. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crochet is the best winter activity other than planted tank gardening 🙂 I'm working on a quilt right now that I am not in love with but it's using fabric I had on hand and I am trusting that I will like it better when it's finished. If not, I'll save it for when I have a "guest room" or a grandchild with odd taste in fabric, lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I won't make a quilt I don't like, at least a little bit. I've been known to box up a project and donate it to Project Linus or someone else / some other group.

Best of luck with this, it should be a great way to rehab those hands. One tip I've heard is to start with a ukulele as they are smaller and lighter so less need to stretch while still teaching the skills for guitar. And can still sound beautiful.
