Goals

I (Seth) think it is good to have goals for yourself. Not only big life goals, but also smaller goals too. A couple years ago, when I turned 25, I decided to come up with "25 goals for my 25th year of Life". There were 25 things I wanted to accomplish in that year. I didn't reach all the goals, but got some of them and it was fun keeping track through the year. This list became a tradition and now in my 27th year I have 27 goals on my list. Again, these are stretch goals and I know that I may not complete them all, but it is fun to try. If you are interested, here is my list:

1. Run a Marathon


2. Landscape the backyard


3. Read 8 books


4. Write a song


5. Record a song


6. Start building my acoustic guitar


7. Go snowboarding


8. Bench press my own weight


9. Illustrate a children's book


10. Take some sort of dance lesson


11. Read through the Bible


12. Catch a walleye


13. Paint a painting


14. Fly a kite


15. Go camping


16. Brew my own beer


17. Road trip


18. Go to a concert


19. Refinish a bathroom


20. Tile the kitchen/entryway


21. 10,000 push-ups


22. 10,000 sit-ups


23. Enter a photography contest


24. Run 1500 miles


25. Go ice skating


26. Go sledding


27. Climb a mountain
    

All that said, I checked two more off my list last night. After I get done with a run, I do push-ups and sit-ups and last night marked 10,000 for both!
