Ask HN: What are you thinking about your personal goals in 2017?
I never believed in new year resolutions, but last year, I gave myself three major goals, out of which I think I'll be crossing off all of them!
For the next year, I am planning to 1. Grow 100 plants in my house 2. Walk a total of 2000 Kms in the year 3. Create 12 big paintings 4. Journal everyday 5. Cook through a cookbook completely
I'm really interested to know what you would mark as personal goals.

I developed a pretty consistent habit of exercising in 2016, and I also started a project (https://goo.gl/Qmbbgh) that I think can feasibly generate enough recurring revenue to sustain my lifestyle.
In 2017 I'd like to continue exercising but add a little more cardio (it's been mostly weightlifting), get my project to at least $3-4k/mo in revenue, add to that a new habit of reading and learning new things at least one day a week.
I agree. I've had pretty good success in terms of building habits by sticking a calendar next to the door and marking off every day where I go for a run, or keeping daily/weekly records of expenses (again, with a physical chart stuck somewhere I have to look at it regularly) in order to stick to a budget.
Ideally find something that lets me use my project management and industry experience, rather than just being a junior dev.
