Summary
A personal New Year's reflection and goal-setting post from an individual sharing their 2025 achievements and 2026 aspirations.

For 2026, they plan to focus on completing projects rather than starting new ones, triple revenue, visit 12 new countries (including Morocco, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Brazil, Peru, Chile), and achieve a deadlift of 2 (likely 200k or similar milestone).
