2016 Goals

As 2015 is wrapping up and 2016 roughly 24 hours away (give or take depending on where you are), what do you want to achieve in the next year. Skiing? School? Personal? Relationships? Financial?

What do you want to see happen?

For me:

1. Find a different job. I don't mind my current job and I love my co-workers, but it's not something I want to keep doing for the long run.

2. Do a better job with my finances. I'm not the worst, but I'm far from the best.

3. Travel somewhere I haven't been before.

4. Do a backflip on skis

2. Spin more on jumps. I'm just a pussy.

3. Join Ski Patrol

4. ????

5. Profit

Boat+private golf membership (Im seriously ready to leave the public courses in Boston behind for good) +30 or so more days skiing outside new england between now and May. Stop being lazy and spend time on new business ventures. Hire someone to do my busy work since there is a lot of it and it sort of drains me. Watch as much college basketball as possible and start winning more bets. Go to as many concerts and sports games as I can. Stay skinny and not get fat.
