Set the targets!

Right, goals, targets, something to achieve.
I have given it quite some thought and I think I found the two goals that I need to reach.

  • A new body รก 100kg
  • Reach the gold cap, the maximum amount of gold a character can carry - one million - in World of Warcraft







Indeed!
"Why?", one might ask.



To be brutally honest, it is because I decided some time ago, that I will give myself a birthday present; a "new" body at 100kg - a weight I have not held for at least 10 years.
It will definititely require some hard work, but I got a feeling it will be worth it in the end!
I agree, this sounds like your average New Year's resolution, something people promise each year but are unable to keep up with because of fading interest - so to combat that, let's make it interesting and add another goal!

As for the other one:
I am a gamer at heart because - as my friend Nicolaj put it - games are fun.
Right now, the world of Azeroth takes up a majority of my gaming time, so why not try to achieve something there - something where your success is not depending on luck, but rather on your ability for analytical thinking, observation and forecasting.
Something where your success is not relative to the amount of time you put into the game.


Now, to make this all a bit more interesting, there has to be a limiting factor. Something that marks the end - a deadline.
As mentioned earlier, this is going to be my birthday present to myself, which means that I have approximately 7 months to do this!

When enough is enough.

Enough is enough, as they say.
It is a point that everyone gets to, when we feel that something needs to be done. When certain things go too far and we start feeling unhappy.
Is it a state of mind or is it just reality catching up to you?
Well, whichever it is, I know things got to change.
People may argue that we are never standing still, or that slowing down is a good thing - that you get settled where you are. When this happens, you accept reality for the way it is.

But this isn't me!

I am still young.
I still feel that I have the power to bring change.
I still feel the potential to be unstoppable!
It is time I pick myself up get that feeling where it belongs, in my everyday life!


Goals, I need goals. 
Something to strive for.
Something to achieve.
