Ready my Kindle more, particularly self improvement books
Learn Spanish
Look to get onto the property ladder

I got into learning Spanish this year. Pretty good if you can keep it going. Got sick of listening to radio and music. Felt weird talking back to it though.

What did you do to learn? I have an audio book from Audible which after spening 30 mins this year seemed to do ok

I had an audiobook too. It’s called Learning Spanish with Paul Noble. A few hours long. What I found better was a podcast called Coffee Break Spanish. 15-20min episodes, 4 series I think. And 30-40 episodes per series. Starts off basic then gets quite challenging. I haven’t done it for a few months but I’ve still remembered quite a bit and I didn’t even get to series 2. Couple of normal books too. Spanish for dummies and a Spanish dictionary.

Main one is to hopefully get through the first few months of forthcoming child's life as successfully as the first one...

Then the standing items really:

Booze less
Eat better
Exercise more

The last new years resolution I made was in 2017. It was to not make any more new years resolutions. It worked. I always used to fail in most of them. Usually by the end of January as well. But since 2017 I haven't failed a single one.

Nothing really pops to mind, travel less would be nice, off the phone less to help sleep but that’s about it.

Shift the gut as I have a wardrobe of clothes worth about £1500 that I can’t get into.

About time I got a new job before I start getting bitter with this one.

Potentially move house. Love the area I live in but not the actual house itself.

Stop sticking so much shit up my nose.

Try to exercise more, possibly change jobs been in the nhs for almost 10 years but feel I’m getting stale

Got another operation scheduled around March April time (basically smooth done the skin graft I had done)
Going to New York in October will try and drop a bit of weight too

A good habit for anyone to get into is to leave your phone to charge outside your bedroom when you go to bed.

How many of us have been guilty of waking up and reaching for the phone first thing to check social media, SBT etc... Doesn't do your brain any good first thing*


*I've been awake for an hour this morning before writing this!

Ditto (the kids also- although older than yours I suspect. One on a post A level year out, the other choosing GCSE options)

i'm interested to know how you are planning to 'train' for this. i.e. do you intend to start by doing a handstand against the wall, before progressing - or are you going to start by building up your arms, or something else entirely?
Please provide a detailed plan/timescale

It's part of a yoga class which eventually leads up to all kinds of mad balancing acts on one hand and all that nonsense which is way beyond me, but if I can pull off a free standing handstand I'll be happy
