My Goals for 2022
The new year has begun, and the best opportunity to set my personal goals for this year. Broadly I have packed my goals into four categories.
- Family and Friends - Spending more time creating unforgettable memories and experiences.
- Personal health (mind and body) - Read more, learn more and be active
- Business and Financial - Invest, focus on my startups and move steps closer to becoming financially free
- Giving back - Share more, connect with others and help support aspiring individuals
