2025 Goals & Plans

As we approach March 2025, I want to set some clear goals for the year—both personal and professional. Nothing too rigid, just a general direction to make sure I’m enjoying life while staying productive.

More Time in Nature & Sports

I live near the Fontainebleau Forest, so I should make the most of it! This year, I want to spend more time outdoors—running, hiking, biking, and doing some strength training. Luckily, I already have a great reason to be outside: I take care of dogs when their owners go on vacation, which means daily walks are a given. But I’d like to go beyond that and be more intentional about outdoor activities.

Reading More Books

I’ve been wanting to read more, and this year, I’ll make it a priority. No strict book count in mind, but I just want to make reading a bigger part of my routine.

Side Projects & Tech

On the tech side, I want to dive back into hardware projects with Arduino and Raspberry Pi. I used to do a lot of hands-on projects as a student, and I really miss it. One of my goals is to integrate AI into a hardware project—I already have an idea in mind.

I’d also like to release a mobile app this year. React Native seems like the best choice since I’ve worked with it before, and it’ll be a good way to catch up with the latest developments.

Staying Organized

I started the year with a small paper agenda where I jot down events, birthdays, and weekly or daily habits (like hiking, biking, or running). So far, it’s working well to keep me accountable and maintain good streaks. Hopefully, this simple habit will help me stay on track with my goals throughout the year.

That’s my plan for 2025! Let’s see how it goes.
