Udpate on 2026 Resolutions

We’re 2/3rds of the way through the year and I wanted to circle back on my 2026 resolutions to see where I’m and what’s possibly acheiveable with the time I have left this year.

Resolutions

I really committed to several resolutions this year, more than I probably should have. I didn’t account for how busy work would get this year or how quickly time would fly by. TL;DR I haven’t made any real progress on my goals for the year besides some of the easier ones.

Get Down to 220 lbs

I’m still hovering at somewhere in the low 280s. I haven’t been to the gym in any meaningful capacity this year and some of the meds that I’m on are contributors to weight gain. I’m switching meds which should help a bit with overeating and appetite. Starting tomorrow I’m going to try to make a habit about going to the gym daily in the early mornings; that’s the only real window I have due to work commitments.

Read a Poem Every Day

This one I’ve actually been pretty consistent at. I have several volumes of poetry that I’ve been going through and reading from each day.

Reach 1k in Total Sales for ATX Spices

I haven’t done anything with ATX Spices this year, much to the detriment of free space in my office. I still have the holidays coming up there will be several opportunities for me to sell some Bud’s Rub.

Launch My Own Tech Conference

I did put together a vibe-coded website for ATX.DEV and reached out to a few venues, but other than that there’s been no movement. This will most likely happen in 2027 in Q1 or Q2.
