Happy new year folks! I hope you’ve had a fantastic break over the holidays!

It’s that time where many people make a list of goals for the new year, and for the first time in my life I’ll follow suit!

#1 – I’m starting a new role with Redgate on the 15th of Jan, so I want to go into my new role without the burdens or baggage I carried in my previous role with TfGM. This is going to be a new chapter in my life and I should embrace everything that comes with this change!

#2 – I’m aiming to do at least one social event each month and getting involved with Manchester Tech Festival later in the year.

#3 – I’ve got a laundry list of books I want to read. Last year I made it through 5 books, this year I want to at least double that number.

#4 – My relationship with food and exercise has been a little lacking over the last 12 months, so it’s time to turn that back around. I need to get out more, push myself more, and not reach for those cheeky burgers when I can’t think of something better to eat while I’m out! Who knows, maybe I’ll cut back on Haribo too. Nah, let’s not push it.

#5 – My most difficult goal, is to quit vaping. Yes, I used to smoke and nearly a year ago I switched to a vape full-time. Now it’s time to quit entirely.
