My achievement wishlist 2026
It’s already a bit late, and I've been sitting on this for a while now. No idea why, but here it is. 🏆
Every New Year's resolution I had over the past years never worked out. So I stopped having them and thought about something manageable I could achieve. Which was also not working out because every time I try to work on a side project with a deadline, something occurs and moves my attention.
With this in mind, I started to make a wishlist for the new year. A list of things that were nice to achieve but not mandatory.
As a developer, for example, I want to release my newly created app, which I worked on in December (#AdventOfProgress). Then, use this app as a template and create a new app with a different topic, where I can reuse 75% of the code I already have. :) If this gets done this year, it would be nice to also have a small React Native app for #pelletyze. This could also be done in a small focused sprint because I only need the frontend; the backend is already working.
Fast forward; writing the above was in the past, and the pattern continued. I’ve created an entirely different app without finishing the first one. 😂 On which is now focus all my spare time. It is a little kids game. More of this in the next post.
Having a wishlist with maybe some milestones is a nice thing, I think. For example, having something done on my birthday. Or achieving X until summer and Y until autumn and so on. :)
Besides all the projects, there is still the private life, where I have to achieve things that are not fully in my control. Here, I stopped entirely having wishes. Here is the mantra: it’s done when it’s done. 😂😂
