The Freedom List 2010

In my very last blogpost of 2009 I mentioned my goals/target/ideas/todo list for 2010. To keep it absolutely clear what is on the list and so you can keep track of how things are developing I’ve dedicated this page to that list:

“Freedom”

Financial

  • Monthly “internet income” of $500
  • Live below means

Blogging

  • 300 subscribers to this blog
  • 100+ blogposts in 2010
  • New layout (Although I’m still learning CSS the blog looks much better now)

Computer-related

  • Touch typing in qwerty
  • Having Linux as only OS
  • A laptop (Payed for with internet income)

Brain development

  • Solve Rubik’s cube in 60 seconds or less (and post a video of it here) (Dropped this challenge, will take to much time I can spend in better ways)
  • Juggling with three balls (Can do it as of April 14th)
  • Speedreading 1000 words a minute in Dutch and English

Minimalist living

  • Complete the 100 items challenge

Body development

  • Continue meditating daily for 20 minutes (zazen)
  • Continue training in T’ai Chi
  • Run more consistently (2-3 times a week, one hour at a time)
  • Become an early riser (6.30 am Mon – Fri)
  • Take up Aikido if possible (Had my first lessons on August 31st)

Do all this and still manage to get proper grades.

(Got my “Propedeuse” in one year. Meaning I passed all my courses of the first year the first time round with an average of 7.1)
