50 Days until 50: Day 30

May 30, 2020

One month away from my 50th birthday

Damn, I’ll be 50 in 30 days and I feel the pressure to achieve all the goals I wanted to reach by the time I turned 50.

Some of the long term goals I have that I know I won’t achieve by 50 are:

  • To retire early
  • To own property
  • To be married again (or at least in a healthy relationship)
  • To live somewhere warm ( like California)

I haven’t given up on these goals, I’ll just have to increase my timeline

My short term goals that I still have a small chance to achieve:

  • Loose 20lbs (5 is more realistic)
  • Get on a daily schedule
  • Finish my next book
  • Find more fun things to do

I’m not going to place any more pressure than I already have to try to achieve these goals. I believe that because I put so much pressure on myself is the reason I haven’t achieved my goals in the first place. Instead I’m going to focus on gratitude.

The last 30 days of my 40’s. I’m grateful that I can even say that
