My 2024 goals were
- Read more nonfiction than last year
An easy hurdle to clear when the number of books to beat is just 1 short Aozora essay
- Complete Bingo card
- Step out of my comfort zone (both genre and difficulty wise)
I did this a bit, but not as much as I had hoped
- Read at least 30 books
It’s a bit hard to tell because of how some of them are categorized on Natively but I think I am at 29/30? So I should be able to clear this one by the end of the year
- Read something in the N1+ range
Overall I’m happy with how I did.
Goals 2025
- At least 5 books from my list
- At least 2 nonfiction books
- I’m putting a limit on the amount of new books I can buy. Max 4 rows of the bookshelf for unread books. If I want to buy more I have to first clear some space by reading more
- Pass N1 if I haven’t already
- Read something L41+
- Participate in the Bingo challenge
- Read on at least 90% of days
- Stretch goal: 95%
- Stretch goal: Complete the Bingo card
