Going back to my yearly habits, here are my 2019 goals that I will commit myself to. This year I will only have two, namely:
I will commit atleast 30 hours, 40 at most, every week towards the development of my vision, a 1st world Philippines.
Mainly this will be work directed at Progressia — we are at a stage where growth is evident, ideas are overflowing, and hard work is demanded. Even though Progressia works on a trust-based system, and it works amazingly, I’m dying to see what the effects of having a full-time worker are.
Apart from work items from our backlog, this particular goal may also include things like reading books, studying, networking, etc, as these are things that are important for the long haul.
I have counted the costs. Given that I have been entrusted increasing responsibilties in my dayjob and I have aplenty of passions and things that I want to do, this goal will require me dedication and extra consciousness of my resources, working myself to 70+ hours a week, yet capping myself to the 40 hour ceiling to leave me room for my hobbies and relationships. I’ll also make use of time tracking tools to measure my performance. I’ll also permit myself to offset hours to allow room for flexibility.
And that leaves me to my last goal:
I will aim to delight myself in the Lord daily.
A weird goal this may be (I see no quantitative nor qualitative measurement that I can measure myself against) but this is something that I feel I need to work on: Something that has been running in my mind for weeks if not months.
I will aim to delight myself in the Lord on a daily basis: To enjoy Him to the fullest.
And then maybe He will grant me the desires that He designed my heart for.
And from there everything else.
