Goals for 2013

Writing my goals for 2013 publicly to keep myself accountable.

Gig monthly

What?

There was a time when I played sax at local restaurants, corporate gigs, heck I even recorded an album with my brother that sold pretty decently.

How?

I’ve got a bassist, drummer and guitarist lined up. I’m approaching several of the bars/restaurants I used to play to set up some gigs.

Learn Japanese

What?

Christine and I will be learning Japanese this year. Our goal is to reach survival-in-Japan level by the end of the year.

How?

I bought all 3 levels of Rosetta Stone Japanese today. 3x 20 minutes and an hour-long session with Christine once a week.

Get featured on Hacker News

What?

I’d certainly like to refine my writing abilities and this is a stretch goal to accomplish that.

How?

Blogging here and on the MBS Labs website weekly.

Run a 3:30 marathon

What?

I’m not in the shape I’d like to be. I ran a 4:00 marathon last year and I can already run a 1:30 half marathon so this is the next logical step.

How?

Following the RunKeeper training plan. Track my progress on my RunKeeper profile.

Bike daily

What?

Starting on February 1st (in the snow for an added challenge). This doesn’t apply to days I have to drive.

How?

I’m buying a bike and doing it!
