In 2017, I wasn’t a goal-oriented person or at least I didn’t think about goals the way I do now. This year, I started using Google Calendar and Notion to get my ideas together and plan them out.
2019 was a year where I evaluated my life and decisions. My goals from 2018 were clear but not well planned. I fell short of a lot of goals and some I didn’t even try at all. I have a list of ideas and things that I want to do. So 2020 will be the year.
Like I did last year, I listed out the project ideas, blog posts, future reading list that I want to do in 2020 using Notion and my BUJO.
Successful Goals
- Drink More Water — I think it was 60% increase
- Read More — 15 Books completed, 20 Books picked up
- Portfolio Redesigned — It looks better
Try Again, Maybe Not
- Japanese — I know very few words and Kanji is hard
- Blog — I few off with the posts
- Coding — No huge projects / not consistent
- Mediation — Found out I hated it

Overall, my blog posts have gotten a lot of views over the past year. This has encouraged me to write more posts for 2020.
Favorite Apps
- YouTube — The New TV
- Minecraft — Infinite fun
- Call of Duty Mobile -- Come on, it’s COD!!
- Notion — Productivity and Organization
- Google Keep & Tasks -- A must for quick notes and to-dos
- Google Calendar -- It’s keeping on top of dates
- Libby — The library app
- Musi — Still better than Pandora and YouTube
- Spotify -- They get me better than Tidal and YouTube
- Amazon -- Unfortunately, I’ve been looking at future purchases
- Pinterest -- Just because of the endless ideas
There are apps from last year that I do not use anymore. Either they have been replaced are no longer used. I have also let go of Facebook and Snapchat completely and I have spent less time on Twitter and Instagram. I use Twitter to communicate with the outside world and Instagram for seeing what people create. No more endless scrolling for me.
I have stop using Asana and completely moved to Notion. Notion has risen as the all in one app for productivity and project management.
2019 vs 2020
Coding
Goal: JavaScript applications and Backend
My goal for 2019 was to get into backend, but as I slowly realized that my laptop was starting to put me down. Doing the basics front-end was too much. So learning backend was put on hold and still will be on hold. I just started using React. I want to use the first 6 months creating React projects. I also want to get into web design more by using Figma.
Blogging and Social Media
2019 Goal:
I just want to do more. I want a minimum of 1 post a month. I want to share images and videos of the websites that I create.
2020 goal will not change much. There will just be more to share. Before the year is up, I will come up with blogs for the year.
