1.) Got the timing belt on my car fixed. Been putting this off for like a year and half! Saved my car from breaking randomly and unexpectedly
2.) Started my retirement fund. I opened a roth ira and am doing quite well financially
3.) Read a 450 page book! In about 5 days! That's pretty fast I think
4.) Read my bible and prayer everyday. This is important, because I've always had bad habits in this area. I hope to make this a habit. I'm on a reading plan that will get me to read the bible twice a year, assuming I follow it. Also, praying had become something of a rare thing for me. I'm praying a lot more than I used to, and about more than just things I need.
So at the moment, I'm beginning to fill my time with other things. I'm going to start teaching guitar lessons to two jr highers. It should be interesting, but I'm looking forward to it. I also realized that I should set some bigger life goals. I have all the tools I need to do that from my tentmakers training. They showed me how to dream big, set goals, and achieve them. I think some of my life goals will be
1.) Lose some weight. I'll have to think about how much I want to lose. I want to be healthy and fit.
2.) Form a base zero budget. That's where every dollar I earn is accounted for on paper.
3.) Pay off my mortgage
4.) Find a wife?
I'm also looking for some new hobbies. I was thinking that I might dive back into card tricks and such. They are so fun to learn and even more fun to perform. My jr highers freak out when I do my card tricks!
So, things are trending up. We'll see what God has in store for me
