My 28 before 28 (Updated)

It’s been a year already and I am still find it a little unbelievable that I’m already 27 years old. As I am finalising the final draft for this post, I am currently in Bali for my Yoga Teacher Training! Many amazing things have happened this year and I’m really grateful. It’s a little strange to think that I’ll be turning 28 years old next year. Truth be told, my age after turning 25 just became ambiguous. I even forget how old I am sometimes.

Regardless, age is truly just a number and instead of fearing the fact that we will get older and our bodies will change, I think that it is more important to focus on how becoming one year wiser and stronger can allow us to do things that our younger selves would not dare to do.

Like my previous lists (you can read my 26 before 26 and 27 before 27 here), I have made another this year and I thought to share it with you.

 

Update: The Covid situation and lock down made a lot of these goals unattainable for now. Still grateful that I managed to check some off my list!

 

My 28 before 28

  1. Travel to Philippines
  2. Travel to New Zealand
  3. Start teaching yoga on Skillshare(I did a class before skillshare stopped fitness classes from being published) 
  4. Start teaching yoga in a studio (I currently teach at Hale Yoga and Flow Space!) 
  5. Read 1 book a month (I made it more specific instead of the the ambiguous 12 books goal. With the lock down, I definitely read way more than 12 books)
  6. Drink a green smoothie daily in the morning
  7. Go for one class per quarter to learn something new (it can be for any skill/experience!)
  8. Get PADI certified (It’s back on the list from last year)
  9. Get 2 sales a month for Typornagraphy on Etsy (Last year, my goal was to start something and thus I’ve created Typornagraphy on Etsy which sells minimalist and inspirational posters. Please do check it out if you’re interested!) 
  10. Detach from my phone more
  11. Get a physical alarm clock and stop snoozing in the mornings
  12. Only purchase new things consciously
  13. No snacking after 10pm
  14. Meal prep more meatless dishes
  15. Workout 5 times a week 
  16. Get 10,000 steps daily
  17. Learn how to make baos (Chinese steamed buns) or dumplings
  18. Learn conversational french (can’t believe it’s on the list once again)
  19. Learn basic Indonesian
  20. Get more plants and grow them well
  21. Read on public transport instead of using my phone 
  22. Pay off my student loan (about 10k left to go)
  23. Invest in something new to expand my investment portfolio
  24. Get out of bed by 7am daily
  25. Drink only one sweet drink a day
  26. Improve my knife skills in the kitchen
  27. Try out Taekwondo or self defence
  28. Try incorporating the 20/20/20 rule into my morning routines (you can read more about this in my post on why you should wake up at 5am and book insights from The 5AM Club) 

 

Some things I’ve learnt (from attempting to strike off items from my 27 before 27 list)

  • I need specific goals that can be measured. This applies to reading a book a month instead of just stating 12 books for the year. This gives me a more specific focus and helps me achieve it easier.

 

  • Goals can and probably will change throughout the year and that’s ok. It just means I’ve grown and rather set my focus and energy on achieving something else.

 

  • Rereading my list also shows me what can of person I was when writing it. It can be quite liberating and intriguing to see how my mindset and goals can change in such a short period of time.

 

  • I’ve read somewhere that we overestimate what we can do in 5 years and underestimate what we can do in a year. Thus, I’ve decided to put down some larger goals along with some smaller ones, as well as those to help improve my daily habits.

 

I hope sharing this list inspired you to create your own in some way! It doesn’t have to be 28 before 28 or anything like this, but it’s always nice to set some goals for the upcoming year, however way you want to view it!  

 

What are some of your goals for the upcoming year? 

 

Till then,

The weather hasn’t been great for some running lately but the @sudio Elva earphones have been great on the run or when chilling at home 🤓

The neck band feels nice and lightweight (doesn’t really bother me when working out). I’m not too sure how I feel about the noise cancelling function just yet, will update!
