The first year I did an "XX for 20XX" list was 2019. That list was easy to make, and I felt it made a difference in clarifying my goals for that year. Did I achieve every item on the list? I think you know the answer to that! But I find even partially completed New Year's resolutions get me closer to my goals. You have to know what your goals are to achieve them.
The subsequent lists have been harder, in part because I took care of the low-hanging fruit the first year. As the numbers went up, the list got harder! Until this year. For some reason, this year the list practically made itself! I had to edit it to keep to 25. Some are tiny. Some are so big they will require their own plan. I x'd out some of the specific financial stuff, since that seems too private to share.
The items in bold are the ones which require a detailed plan; I'm working on those today & tomorrow.
