My Goals for 2025
Tech
There is a lot to learn out there. Here is what I'm interested exploring in for 2025:
- Continue learning and using Rust for projects.
- Setup my Raspberry PIs as my personal servers.
- Check out Deno, again. Can it finally replace NodeJS?
- Get better at fundamentals like networking. I've never really learned OSI layers in depth.
- Get better at C#. This is for work.
- Really learn how Nginx works. It keeps popping up in my life.
- Get better at Linux. I use Arch, btw.
Physical
I really thought that I would have lost a few pounds since last year, but here I am, weighing exactly the same.
- Lose 20 lbs.
- Be able to do 20 pull ups.
- Workout something every day.
Mental
How do I do more without increasing stress? I saw a youtube video lately about enjoying the work that you're doing. I was really stressed out last year. Job-hunting early in the year and then making sure I kept that job took a lot out of me. By autumn, I was toasted. I couldn't find it in me to work on things for myself. A long holiday break has helped me get back into it.
- Try to write every day.
- Get better at writing.
- Have more organized thoughts.
