What do you want to do in 2022

Post by Ozzie guy »

Here are some thoughts off the top of my head.
  • Continue losing one pound a week
  • Push to get medicated as I am still depressed or akin to that after years of psychotherapy
  • I usually work crappy minimum wage jobs so get help looking for work to get my first job that is better than a minimum wage job.
  • Be ready to start a higher education course in 2023 if I can't get jobs that are better than minimum wage
  • Get away from porn and limit my screen time
  • Watch one tv show episode a day to give me some escapism and make the year feel faster.
  • I am still attached to the idea of self employment but I am probably going to have to give it up soon and say I missed the boat whist depressed.

Just get a minimum-wage job to start out. Even 30 hours a week is fine if you want to use the rest of the time to look for something better.

In 2022, I want to visit two new countries, finish tidying up my house, publish a short story, continue working out, and get on track for a promotion.

In 2022 I plan to:
  • Get a job here in Miami, FL. Since there is a very big Democrat presence here that grows by the day a federal contractor entry level job like at FPL starts at 15 an hour which is nice. Hope to get one of those or work IT at Amazon. Basically a chill job.
  • Upon getting the 15 an hour job I plan to go back to study at college and get an A.S. in Cyber Sec or Data Analytics. I would have to analyze either one and see how to go about it. Thankfully I won't need that many credits or time to finish up the semesters to get my A.S. I just need the money so I don't get into debt because with all the wild stuff going on and especially inflation debt will be harder to shake off with a crappy job. I don't trust these trade school equivalent places for tech like the University of Miami boot camps to be honest especially after seeing what happened to one of those boot camps/online schools go bankrupt and rob people's time.
  • Finally create a new name for a side business I plan to go forward with. At the moment I have one that is tentative but the official name has to be more catchy while the filing business name can be whatever.
  • Develop a more rock solid morning habit. Things have been slowly getting better compared to years past and this digital era of the future just keeps getting better even though its just getting started. As the tech influence grows in the world it should make things more fun which just expedites the ritual of making good habits.
  • Get an Oculus this year when the cash is good and when my business is established on paper lower my monthly costs at home using business tips and use that to boost my online business and pay cash while at college. Get a big enough following to help expedite the great momentum gained in 2022 businesswise for next year.
  • Get myself mentally ready to take gene therapy in the future for height growth just for fun. While I'm not that short thank god it would be nice to tower over people as anything above 6 feet in height. There is after all a prediction on the Future Timeline that humanity will eventually evolve to be 7 feet tall in like 2100 or so. I may as well get ahead of the curve there.
  • This one I consider very important - *Take a day when possible building up to each day to calm the mind and get it ready for the future*. We are about to embark on a future like no other that has only been envisioned as predictions on here at the Future Timeline. Some predictions may become true faster than expected as time goes on which will change the world as we know it. The COVID-19 situation and its influence on the European Union with its Digital Decade that includes Green Passes will change the world forever. The fact that Brain Computer Interfaces are making their presence known late 2021 to early 2022 means that prediction will become true as seen on the Future Timeline. I get so elated thinking about longevity and the possibility of becoming a cyborg to extend lifespan or maybe even become a robot for a bit if I decide to until I get a new body. All that and more can become a possibility from here to 2077. The advances in nanotech per AZONano publication shows things are changing much faster than the general public is aware and its something I'll have to grow comfortable with over time.

- Fix my lower back pain, which has been a major problem since October 2020. I know how to do this: yoga and stretches every morning, which I'm trying to do consistently now, alongside weight lifting and walking.

- Maintain my very successful diet, which saw me go from 90 kg (198 lbs) at the start of last year, to just below 80 kg (176 lbs) now. For my next milestone I want to reach 75 kg (165 lbs), which is the ideal weight for my height. According to longevity expert David Sinclair, losing weight is the single best thing you can do to maximise your lifespan.

- Reach the point where I can afford my first flat. I'm 80-90% of the way there. Just need a small cushion of extra savings. If I can't buy somewhere then I hope I at least move into better rented accommodation, as this place I'm in now has various problems.

- Do more walking, and exploring nature. Perhaps join a walking group in London.

- Visit family more often, if/when the pandemic numbers aren't so insanely high.

- Complete the basic templates/modules I need for Past Timeline, so I can start adding entries.

Start formally on the Yabanverse project I've been tossing around since 2017, in terms of "passion project." Maybe have Little Miss Savage and Strongest Under Heaven on a chapter-per-week schedule by March.

Then start on a return to gamelit, in terms of "commercial project."

If I have the motivation, a return of Another Perfect Day? as a formal exercise in slice of tomorrow writing would certainly be fun.
And remember my friend, future events such as these will affect you in the future

Uhm, I am new aboard, and I bet I have found the fit thread. I graduated from high school in June, and now I don't want to pursue an academic degree, but my mother insists daily and gives me numerous speeches. Moreover, she found an admission essay writing service and told me to click for more information about how to get help with the college admission process and papers. So, I am happy that, at least, it will be an easy challenge and not a headache.

I basically got the best possible job I could get without a higher education or going on some massive quest to get it.

The job is minimum wage casual rates. Casual rates pays me about 40% more than normal minimum wage (I earn 28 AUD an hour) and I can work from home.

Employment is not longer my largest concern, I would say now it is most important for me to loose weight and try to enjoy the next few years as we approach frozen AGI. My life is a bit crappy but boredom is my big problem in regards to enjoying the present.
