So that you don’t have to deal with my daily lists cluttering your feed, I will now be tagging these using #I’ll be glad I did it when I’m done. Feel free to add these to your ignore list if you so desire.

Goals for January 5th

Bonus Content: Last night, my order for applewood perches came in and lemme tell you, these dang flightless birds already LOVE them. Just look at the dang floofball:

In my time away, I’ve learned that I’m especially bad at following through with my personal goals without someone to hold me accountable. As such, I’m going to try sharing my major daily and/or weekly goals here as a means of holding myself accountable. As with everything, we’ll see if this sticks.

Today’s goals…

• Spend 1 hour learning Python in the context of data science (Due to a major energy crash, I was unable to complete this)
• Take a long walk (minimum 1 hour) and stay off social media the entire time (Completed at 11:30 am)
• Spend 1 hour reading for pleasure (I’m in the middle of The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt and am really enjoying it so far) (Completed as of 7:15 pm)
• Post an announcement for my employees reminding them to submit and revise their spring availability (Completed at 2:00 pm)
